After several months of complete silence, Ninja Theory software has finally come back to talk to him with some interesting details.
While the latest official trailer for the game comes from the Games Awards 2021, Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 returns to the spotlight…
Hellblade 2: the Xbox exclusive is back in the news with a new video
Indeed, among the many ongoing projects on the Xbox Game Studios side, it’s clearly one of the most intriguing and anticipated. Unfortunately, little concrete information has been revealed about this adventure. Today, the teams offer us a “developer diary” dedicated to the creation of the game universe.
As a reminder, the plot will take place on Island in environments recreated via Unreal Engine 5. We thus learn that the study had to face many difficulties, in particular due to the Covid epidemic, and that it had to adapt in order to collect the necessary information.
For example, Ninja Theory has scanned many landscapes using drones, thus collecting data for photogrammetry: the technology that will make the sets as realistic as possible. When the team finally arrived in Iceland, he spent 11 days traveling to 21 different locations across the country.
Besides this visit, the developers also explained that they had spent time to sculpt different bones and totems, before carefully scanning them to add them to the game.
Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 is currently in development on Xbox Series X|S and PC although no release date has been revealed… Maybe we’ll hear about it again at Microsoft’s summer showcase?
