elbobo Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 I know this is just a teaser trailer and could be a lot of BS "in engine" but I want to believe, looks incredible. The first game had some very interesting elements and top tier sound design but some weird gameplay especially the puzzles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XxEvil AshxX Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Yeah even if it is a tech demo, that facial animation is fucking amazing. I imagine it will get paired down a bit by the time we see the actual game, but considering how good Senua looked even on the PS4/Xbox One, it's not hard to believe they'll pull it off. Also, props to the actress that is doing the mo-cap for her, wasn't she just one of their artists? Looks like she's really getting into it!

Nokt Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 This inspired me to finish the first game. Dunno why I never finished it in the first place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually stopped playing the game because I got stuck on a puzzle that I just didn't have any interest in solving. The puzzles involve you looking at objects at certain way... not the most compelling gameplay. Sound design and atmosphere are top-notch and the combat is decent. I don't doubt the graphics in the trailer though, Ninja Theory has ALWAYS been at the forefront of getting great digital performances from their characters particularly facial mo-cap. Andy Serkis was involved in a lot of their early projects and I don't know if he is part of the actual company. Also, will this trailer be single handedly responsible for the resurgence of Metal Music ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brick Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Impressive visuals to be sure. I hope it comes to PC too since I bought the first one on PS4, but this won't be coming to PS5 now that Microsoft has bought Ninja Theory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should be a day one Game Pass title and a huge push for PC gamers to sign up for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure we can definitely say Day 1, since Gears Tactics is PC only for a little period of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moa Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 I didn't really need a sequel to Hellblade since it felt pretty self-contained, but it's also the exact type of game that could benefit from the refinements a sequel would offer. If they turn up the combat to feel rewarding and do everything they did right in the first game well, a sequel could be fantastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HalfJoey Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 I had been holding off on playing the first game, but i bought it for the PS4 Pro right after seeing this trailer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPDunks4 Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 I bought this back when it released on Xbox, but never got around to playing it, even though I always wanted to. Well this trailer got me to finally start. I'm very early in. It's interesting for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gamer.tv Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 I was about half way through the first game, died after an annoying section and haven't touched it since. Maybe I need to restart it and give it a full days attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XxEvil AshxX Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 I just picked it back up and finished the trials to get the sword. Then i realized i forgot what the combat mechanics were so i quit out before i died. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but it was later in the game and as I was trying to remember what was the parry button and dodge I was getting my ass kicked. I'll play under a different profile for five minutes then go back to it. I just don't want to risk her dying while I'm fumbling around trying to remember everything.

atom631 Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Yasss. Hellblade and A Plague Tale are probably the two most immersive games I’ve played this gen. Really excited for this sequel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commissar SFLUFAN Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Hellblade II confirmed to be using Unreal Engine 5. Quote The power of Xbox Series X was first demonstrated with the unveiling of Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II. The team will be building the game on Unreal 5 and leveraging the power of Xbox Series X to bring the Hellblade franchise to levels never before seen. The footage shown was captured in-engine and reflects the power of Xbox Series X available to developers to deliver new universes, experiences and games in ways you have never imagined.

crispy4000 Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Sounds like they’re building in UE4 and plan to merge over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaethos Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 This news guarantees the game isn't coming out until the end of 2021 at the earliest, as that's the time frame for UE5. It won't even be in developers hands for testing until spring of next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is 2022 but it'll be a larger game in scope compared to the original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
