Xbox exclusive Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II is coming to PS5 with ‘Enhanced’ release

With Microsoft continuing to port its Xbox games to other platforms, it seemed only a matter of time before Ninja Theory’s Hellblade II would be confirmed for PlayStation 5. Following rumours earlier this year, Microsoft has now officially announced Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II Enhanced – coming to PS5 this Summer.

In alignment with the game’s 1 year anniversary, Ninja Theory officially announced that Senua’s Saga is expanding to other platforms, saying “Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II is coming to PlayStation 5 this summer with some exciting new features. These features will also be available at the same time as a free update for players on Xbox Series X/S, Xbox PC, and Steam.”

Little else was shared at the time, with the only enhancements officially stated being the game’s support for the PS5 Pro. That said, given the fact that the enhanced features are also planned to come to Xbox, there is likely much more than a simple resolution boost set to be introduced.

Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II launched a year ago to somewhat mixed reviews – in particular from fans – with some of the largest complaints surrounding its relative lack of player involvement. Hopefully the enhanced edition brings some additional gameplay elements along with it. We will have to wait and see.

KitGuru Games: DLSS 5 misses the point

It would be hard to argue that NVIDIA’s DLSS technologies haven’t been a net positive to the PC space, with the machine-learning based upscaler successfully translating lower resolution inputs into a final image which is perceivably sharper while hogging fewer resources. Though somewhat more contentious, the next evolution of DLSS came in the form of Frame Generation, using ML in order to generate additional frames for high-refresh rate gaming. Both techniques can have their issues, but generally speaking they’ve allowed for more people to experience higher-end titles at increased frame rates. DLSS 5, however, takes a sharp pivot, with a very different end goal in mind than the performance-boosting versions that came before.
