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.
