releases for Xbox Series X/S and PC on May 21. However, while it continues the first game’s story, it’s not quite the same creative team. A recent report revealed that Ninja Theory Founder and Senua’s Sacrifice Director, Tameem Antoniades, left the company at some point during the new game’s development.

Ninja Theory has said it plans to share something from Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 daily in the run-up to the game’s release this month.

Tameem Antoniades, a co-founder of Xbox's Ninja Theory studio and writer and director of the imminent Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2, has left the developer. As the first ever Xbox Series X game to be revealed, Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 was announced alongside the unveiling of the Series X at the 2019 Game Awards and is the direct sequel of 2017's hit cinematic adventure game, Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice.

With Ninja Theory keen to push Unreal Engine 5 and the Xbox Series X|S consoles as far as possible with Hellblade 2, it’s been confirmed that the game will run exclusively at 30fps on console, and employ a dynamic resolution to do so. There will be no performance mode.

Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 has looked like a veritable visual beast every time it’s been shown off since its announcement all the way back in 2019. But though it’s certainly looking like it’s going to be one of the best-looking games around when it launches next month, it turns out that will come at the cost of performance in a way that many may not be pleased about.

Several new previews have dropped for Ninja Theory’s Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2, the follow-up to its acclaimed Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice. It sees protagonist Senua battling through Viking Iceland against tyrannous forces while struggling with her “darkness.” Interestingly, Tameem Antoniades, who wrote and directed the first game (and founded the studio), isn’t part of the project.

This console generation has been pretty short of “next-gen moments” — those dazzling, techy epiphanies when you see a game do things that were inconceivable on earlier hardware. You can make a case for Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart’s lightning-fast loading or Starfield’s potato physics, but there have been relatively few instances where you can watch the future arrive in real time.
