Here are some brand new screenshots for Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2

Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 will be released in a few days and Microsoft has shared some new screenshots for it.

[PrinceOfAnger]

Best looking game of the year?

[Barlos]

Not sure why the disagrees because clearly it's visually a fantastic looking game. I'd be interested to know what better looking games from 2024 the people who disagreed think look better.

[PrinceOfAnger]

I'm interested too, what game looks better this year ?, but we all know who are these people , cleary the ones who don't have the game day one on their favorite platform.

[Cacabunga]

CGI..

[PrinceOfAnger]

@Cacabunga

Lol CGi ?
you need to wait for the full analysis from digital foundry.

[Cockney]

@PrinceOfAnger
You asked a question some agreed some didn't then you ridiculed those that disagreed
why go full fanboy?
That is kinda flaky, I'd suggest maybe seeing some gameplay before jumping the gun, we are all waiting to see what digital foundry say

[Abear21]

Nobody believes Xbox hype because they burned so many people with Halo, Starfield, and Redfall.

Hard to tell from a monster PC screenshot, but yeah, it will likely be the best looking console game when it launches.

[mkis007]

I mean best looking game of all time so far imho...that said, that is all that we know. It's a set goal that is easy to achieve if you are not getting bogged down in physics, ai, and other power hungry operations. Most dev's have more they are going for then just the best graphics. Also this is one of the first true Unreal Engine 5 games that is pushing the said graphics aspect. UE always looks damn good for each iteration.

I want to see what the face idle animations look like.

[Profchaos]

Quite possibly I can't think of anything else that came out this year with a high level of Fidelio like this

[Zeref]

It's a new graphical benchmark

[Huey_My_D_Long]

Honestly, I agree, just wished MS would have marketed this more. Ill try to pick it up on PC if I have the extra cash.

[gleepot]

I definitely think you'll be hard pressed to find a bigger visual marvel than hellblade 2 for a while, regardless of how it ends up being game-wise.

[InUrFoxHole]

Yes but I hope the story is good

[Makersbreath2]

After watchdogs, I’ve been overly cautious of hyping myself up for how a game looks until I get it in my hands.

[thesoftware730]

Yes!

[romulus23]

The game is gorgeous there's no denying that.

[Sonic1881]

I should be able to get 4K 60fps in medium to high settings on my RTX 4080. I noticed they mentioned the rtx 4090 in the article

[Minute Man 721]

My 4070 will be ready

[Rynxie]

Will my Nvidia 980 be able to play it on high?

[Sonic1881]

@Rynxie

What about the FPS? Trying to get it in 60fps. Hopefully it doesn't turn out like Dragon's Dogma 2

[andy85]

I'd rather go ultra and 1440 tbh. 4K is massively overrated unless you play on a huge TV

[Sonic1881]

I'll be playing it on my LG G3 Oled 55 inch TV. I was going to use DLSS 3.0. As long as I can get a stable 60fps is really all that matters to me

[Flewid638]

Yup that is how I game on my PC. From the couch, controller, 1440p/60 locked on every genre.

[FACTUAL evidence]

Looks good, but don’t know if it’s actual in game graphics. We’ll find out soon enough.

[romulus23]

Safe to say the majority of those shots are cut scenes not actual game play and that last shot of the face is absolutely a cut scene, I wish we had in game graphics like that when you're actually playing but we are no where near that level yet. Still it's very impressive looking.

[Lightning77]

It's all real time, no cut aways. This is UE5 game so it's all seemless.

The consoles are more than capable of doing it like Alan Wake 2 or even Last Of Us 2 on last gen PS4.

[romulus23]

@Lighning77

LOL, nah. There's a difference between in engine and in game while you are actually physically playing and controlling the character. I'm not saying the game doesn't look good in fact I've said the very opposite but people need to be realistic, there's going to be a lot of cut scenes in the game just like God of War or Uncharted where the game will look way better in those cinematic non playable cut scenes than actual game play. There's no way that last face shot image is game play, that is a cinematic in engine cut scene, you can disagree if you like but that's what it is..

[Lightning77]

It's all the same even during story elements. That's pretty much what they've been touting this whole time. DF will break it down so we'll have to wait and see.

[PrinceOfAnger]

If you played the first game you will know this is all real-time in game.

[purple101]

the lockdown was not kind to senua, just like Alloy from horizon, she's put on about 15lbs

[Psychonaut85]

I may be wrong but I’m pretty sure that’s a different character, not Senua.

[Psychonaut85]

Addendum- I was not wrong the picture being referred to is not Senua.

[PS3gamer4life]

Lol more screenshots

[InUrFoxHole]

I hear you man. Your anticipation is building too

[anast]

Lot's of screenshots...

[saint_seya]

I didnt finish the first one, i got bored after a few hours, but i just downloaded this and ready to try it on release date, just to see how good the graphics are (going to try it on PC, idk if i would get it on my Series X to compare both versions -I got a 3090 ti and only a Ryzen 5 7600 so i probably wont be able to get it maxed on pc, but im sure should be better than Series X if is a good port-)

[antikbaka]

oh my...screenshots

[purple101]

A new graphical Benchmark,

untill, Sony’s showcase at the end of the month

[Auron]

Ah yes.. microsoft and their love of androgynous female characters.. at least in Part one she looked like she had two X chromosomes.

[Umb]

I think you're right. Looking at this character I have the feeling she is more middle eastern and would fit that setting but in a scandanavian setting?? Unless there's a back story to her character, I think she's been DEI'fied to check those boxes.

[Asuka]

I don't care. How is the gameplay?

[Demetrius]

Ready for games this good lookin to be released, fed up of devs still making games looking like early ps4 titles lol

[jwillj2k4]

IS IT A GOOD GAME.

[gold_drake]

Hellbalde never looked bad, but ... the gameplay aint all that, or wasnt much in 1.

[CrimsonWing69]

Looks great, but holy sh*t with as long as y’all have been working on it why is it only like a 5 hour game? That disappoints me.

[thesoftware730]

@Crimson,

You are lying, it's 8hrs, not 5, that is a huge 3 hr difference, besides we already had that article..no need to rehash your untrue and shabby lies.

Nice try tho...move along folks no toll for the bridge today.

[CrimsonWing69]

Sorry… 8 hours 🙄.

[Cockney]

@CrimsonWing69
For heavens sake be respectful, the devs have said its 8 hrs, the media have reiterated it and thesoftware has said it from his own lips so give it a rest will you!
Now if we're talking 2nd playthrough with skippable cutscenes well then yeah obviously, 5hrs, I might even guess at 3hrs considering the little gameplay we've seen

[CrimsonWing69]

@Cockney and @thesoftware730

I’m just going to leave this here:

https://youtu.be/2nvd5G9Kng...

5 hours and 27 minutes.

So yea… if y’all haven’t noticed with game devs is when they say their game is X amount of hours, it’s usually shorter.

I guess, let this be a lesson to you 🤷‍♂️

[Cockney]

@CrimsonWing69
My comment was made in jest, id hoped that was clear but apparently without an /s at the end you simply can't get your head around or comprehend humour
In other threads on this topic I've been saying 3-5 hrs but you still lump me in with thesoftware, I was ridiculing him and concuring with you, I guess from now on I'll be viewing your comments as I would a childs.
Its too late for you to edit so your foolishness is here for everybody to laugh at, well done you

[CrimsonWing69]

@Cockney

Easy there turbo.

Nothing about your f*cking post screamed sarcasm so whatever wild hare you have up your ass about that needs to be plucked.

We have countless crazy fanboys on this site and what your comment reads like is exactly like a crazy fanboy. So yea, maybe do everyone on here a favor and put a “/s.”

I don’t need to edit my post and I don’t pay attention to anything you post, so whatever it is you’re going on about reading my comments as a “child” and how “everyone” here is going to laugh at a response makes me think you’re on the spectrum.

First off, nobody gives a f*ck about these comments. Second, let’s grab a coke and have a smile. My comment wasn’t insulting to you nor insulting to @software730. It was simply me showing that a blind play through was slightly over 5 hours and that devs exaggerate playtime most every time.

Geezus, take your meds or something you psycho.
