Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice
Description
From the makers of Heavenly Sword, Enslaved: Odyssey to the West, and DmC: Devil May Cry, comes a warrior’s brutal journey into myth and madness.
2021 Update:
Return to Helheim and experience Senua’s world through new eyes with enriched visuals and new features. Upgraded materials, particles and LOD, DirectX Raytracing and optimised performance with NVIDIA DLSS and AMD FSR support. We have also used this opportunity to include some key accessibility improvements, including full controller remapping and colour blindness settings.
Set in the Viking age, a broken Celtic warrior embarks on a haunting vision quest into Viking Hell to fight for the soul of her dead lover.
Created in collaboration with neuroscientists and people who experience psychosis, Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice will pull you deep into Senua’s mind.

Essential
Ninja Theory crafts a highly competent action game and a nuanced, powerful exploration of mental health.

9/10
Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice is a masterclass of atmosphere, storytelling, and the marriage of mechanical and conceptual design. While there are moments that feel shoehorned in to remind us we're playing a videogame, the care and attention Ninja Theory has clearly poured into Senua and her story has created something amazing. This is a game everyone should play, and I'm thankful for the opportunity to have lived inside the mind of Senua, however briefly.

8/10
Given the heavy subject matter, calling Hellblade "entertaining" feels inappropriate. However, it is undeniably memorable, telling a compelling tale that explores subject matter many consider taboo

Terrible game! Do not buy!
Do not waste your money on this unless you get it from somebody as gift or found it thrown at the parking lot! This game has 3 - 4 action/combat moment, rest is just walking and walking and talking to herself like schizophrenic. It has some puzzles which you need youtube's help to solve, other than no clue how to progress or what! The game is literally 3-4hrs long even if you had hard time solving the puzzles and fighting the 5 6 monsters in 3 4 fights! I'd call this someone's undergrad film school/3d project rather than even a class B game. And it has no valid ending! I own this on xbox disc and now nobody wants to get it from me even for a grande starbux!

Beautiful game
The game is gorgeous... but the perma death.. is a mechanic I truly hate. This is a story game, and if you perma death (which I didn't. I stopped playing long before then) would mean you have to travel through *all* of it again. And just knowing that, made me loose all interest in finishing the game. But that is my opinion... A real shame. .. it really is. Because the game is really well made.
