Senua's Saga: Hellblade II Will Be Available For PS5 Gamers This Summer
It'll receive new features, which will also be available for PC and Xbox players via a free update.
As Senua's Saga: Hellblade II celebrates its first anniversary, developer Ninja Theory announced that the game will come to PlayStation 5 this summer.
The trailer showcases some footage captured on PS5. Along with the new port, some exciting features will be added, which will also be available via a free update for players on Xbox Series X/S, Xbox PC, and Steam.
When the sequel to the 2017 action-adventure game was released last year, it received a modest performance despite high expectations and positive critical reception. Although Steam alone doesn't fully capture the game's overall performance, since it's also available on Xbox and Game Pass, its peak concurrent player count of less than 4,000 is still surprisingly low for such a highly anticipated title.
Meanwhile, despite the fact that no official sales numbers were revealed, according to analytics data, it ranked 37th in US full-game dollar sales in May and 21st on Xbox. Many fans blame Xbox, which acquired the studio the next year after the first game was released, for not putting much effort into promoting the game.
On the other side, the developers seem happy with the game, as their financial report released in August last year called its launch "successful." The upcoming PS5 port might be worth the effort to bring the game to more fans.
The specific release date of its PS5 version is yet to be announced, and Ninja Theory promised to share more details soon.
