- Just in time for Hellblade: Senua's Saga, here's the story of Senua's Sacrifice, a promising prologue to a story that has the makings to become a truly impressive franchise if it continues to grow in such bold directions.

Criminally, criminally, CRIMINALLY underrated game
Press charges!
Calm tf down
It’s not underrated 🎉
@@Kingjames313 hahahaha 💯💯
Overrated
The game is fantastic, I''m still shocked and incredibly impressed that only 20 devs made the game. It's absolutely insane - with a bigger budget and bigger team, Hellblade 2 could be next level.
Wait, only 20 people made this? Wtf.
That’s why I’m so stoked for 2, and the fact that they’re with Xbox on that release. So much potential, and we know the devs got it, here to hoping the hardware is as great as it seems
@Future Friend Who is "we".
@Future Friend Devil May Cry's a mediocre franchise to begin with.
@Future Friend we already have dmc5 so stop bitching around. they already have redeem themselves for this Game.
The combat in this game is simple but smooth and very fun.
I love how the combat feels like a battle for survival instead of a power fantasy
the combat is crappy - its case of "this balanced around 1v1, but lets throws more in, and have some come in behind you with no sound (or maybe that was yet another bug)".
Get rid of the combat, which the 4 trials proved is not necessary, and you would have a much better game.
Combat of this game is perfect the way they are
@@xBINARYGODx wtf the voices explicitly tells you, "behind you" "lookout" and such, if a guy swings at you from behind
Voices in her head was helpful in fighting hell beast
But there moments when they got to me🤣😂
Can we also talk about how amazing the rot concept was to the game? I was always in a panic when I would die or even get close to dying. It kept me so anxious and determined
It tripped me out, definitely lit a fire under me
@@TheBigdan217 it didn’t do anything
@@calicojack5623
nope, but it made u think it did and that’s the most important thing
This game has amazing voice acting and epic fighting!
Such an underrated game! One of the best I've played so far!!!
The sequel is the reason I’m getting an Xbox !
Same!
Same
is it an exclusive?
@Jonah Rorem windows and Microsoft owned by microsoft so it's a Microsoft exclusive
@Jonah Rorem That is if You can afford a PC
I can’t wait for the sequel! Senua is such great character.
I hope the 3D audio stays cause it was dope af
it better be. it's what made the first one amazing.
This game is amazing, I can’t wait to continue Senua’s story👏
I need more footage. The ending of the first game seemed “pure”, but the newer trailer makes it seem that she’s taken a darker path, I can’t wait 😁
Really? It was boring as hell. Small fight, match the puzzle and move on. Boring 😂
Yaaas 🍜🍜
@Chosen One well...it's still on PC
@@psycheevolved1428 It was made by a team consisting of I think just 20 people. With one of the member portraying as Senua.
It's a beautiful game.
I don't think you've played it, anyone who play this have cannot speak bad about it.
Yeah, looks like she endured through the pain of her loss and turned that into anger.
This game was amazing, I finished it literally 15 minutes ago😂😂😂😂
Saaaaame 🤣 just 3 years later lol
I like how Michael finally breaks down a bit, when describing the epic fight. Also... This was a fsckin beast of a game.
This game terrified me. I think I’m ready to be terrified again. I’m looking forward to the sequel.
One of the most intense games I've ever played
I CAN'T WAIT for this and Project Mara.
Ninja Theory's one of the most promising studios right now, and they're not nearly getting the credit and recognition they deserve.
Ninja Theory always produced phenomenal experiences imo
Thanks for this great recap! The story is told in a pretty abstract way so it's nice to get a straightforward, linear summary of the narrative.
This game really blew me away. Great summary.
This game was epic the boss fights were another level and the acting was 10/10
i loved hellblade its why i cant wait to play the next one its very intense plus the storyline was EPIC!!!
Just completed the game and was baffled at the end, I truly thought Senua had died. My interpretation was that quite possibly Senua never defeated Hela as the achievement I got said Confront Hela as apposed to Defeat her. To know she is still alive and that we will hopefully be receiving a sequel makes me very happy, amazing job Ninja Theory.
One of my favorite games! It was truly a masterpiece.
Finally just played and finished this game like 20 mins ago. Goddamn, one of the best video game experience I've ever had. Like one of those games that stick with you for a long time. Can't wait to see what ninja theory does with hellblade 2! And I'm pretty sure this series will be a trilogy, what with the three dots on the most recent trailer.
Hellblade has too many puzzles
So glad IGN picked up Swaim. Gives me a reason to watch IGN again!
This game was SEVERELY underated!
This was a great and dark journey. For what it was its definitely worth a play
my 3rd favorite game after the witcher and rdr2 this game is a masterpiece
7:25 😆 that blew my mind and had me lmao at the same time...well done sir.
"Just in time for Hellblade: Senua's Saga"
Wait... what? When is the release date?
Edit: There seems to be a bit of confusion about my comment. No, I didn't think the sequel was being released soon. I was only wondering why IGN are releasing this video "just in time" for the sequel, when the sequel doesn't even have a release date.
Exactly what I was about to say
They said the game will be running on Unreal engine 5 did you really think this game was even close?
@@crushlemons I didn't think it was close. I'm asking why this video suggests it is close.
@@xensonar9652 ok don't let it happen again or our friendship is over🤨
@@crushlemons You're welcome.
This recap completely omits the bargain Senua strikes with hela to fight as her champion at ragnorok, and the ending can also be interpreted as hela released the skull from helhiem and accepting the bargain, thus senua becomes her champion the hellblade.
Nowhere in the game is the sword garm called the hellblade at all.
Oh the blood eagle punishment really was a think with Vikings... nice. First heard of it from the tv show vikings
This is a must play. Easily one of the best games I’ve played on my PS4
I got a deal on Steam and played it. I liked a lot about it. There's certainly room for improvement. Hopefully, due to the success of the first game, they were able to make something truly worthwhile.
The reason why is because this was made by only 20 or less people and with a budget of 10-15 million dollars. They had to seek other ways and technology which is why there’s a need for improvement especially the combat that is repeated. However I am pleased and excited that they are now backed by Microsoft meaning a larger budget, all the resources, and of course complete full independence to do with passion.
@@lucjapus26 I was aware of all that before I played and I know they didn't have the budget or staff of Ubisoft. When I type, "truly worthwhile", I didn't mean to suggest it wasn't worth playing. I liked it for what it was.
dskwared2u I see and can agree the game was a success leading to win 5 baftas
4:06 This comparison made me laugh so much! :D
no game I have played in 30 years has moved me as much as Hellblade.
Truly one of the best games ive ever played
This was a great game. Had a blast playing it
Hellblade was a damn brilliant game
Hellblade was one of the most memorable games I've played in years
I have played and beat the game at least 5 times........If you like story telling, and you haven't played this game, this is the game to play. Can't wait for the second one to come out. This is a must have for me, kinda like doom......
Playing for free now through gamepass
My favorite game this generation and the main reason to get xbox series x. A masterpiece!!!
We don’t have a release date yet and ign is saying this video is just in time for Hellblade Senua’s Saga. Wtf is IGN smoking 🤔
I think IGN runs Internet explorer and they just found out that the game's trailer was released :-D
I downloaded the game just because it was available on game pass and ended up being the best game I have played since Dead Space IMO
same here buddy
Truuuuuu. So underrated
the rant at the end is literally my mind searching for this video 5 min after finishing this game
Great summary
4:10 Perfect Kratos Moment
absolutely underrated, one of the best games i´ve played.
This game is a revolution... Can't wait for the sequel...
3? Wasn't there 4 trials of Odin😐
They played on easy, didn't they...🤢
Plot twist: Senua is the mother of Beowulf.
Hellblade 2 would be the only thing that makes me want a series x over a ps5😂
Buy pc instead of xbox
@@manannaik1341 no
@@fusingentree3928 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ your lose bruv
One of the best video games ever made.
Is one game a saga now? Words are hard.
the best narrative-driven game. unique, challenging, unforgettable.
behind you
I loved the trailer when she’s possessed by Satan and starts speaking in tongue
Just a correction… there are 4 trials for the sword, not 3. I just played the entire game today lol.
Hellblade 2 will probably be Xbox’s best looking game can’t wait to play it
A seriously underrated game.
One of the few xbox game i want to play on my PS badly.
@singerliljermz yeah maybe they'll release it later for ps4. But why did first part was for ps4 also and 2nd is Xbox exclusive ?
@singerliljermz yeah i guess... but you just said if it was up to xbox alone they would let us play.
And now you are saying that we are not getting to play is because Xbox has acquired ninja theory.
I'm little confused here.
singerliljermz Xbox already said that gamepass won’t be coming to other platforms
Senua's saga hellblade 2 still hasnt come out ....
She ate an ounce of magic mushrooms and went for a walk and burned a whole forest down . I think she was in California or something , maybe Australia .
😂😂😂🤣
Best Video Game Story EVER💯❤️✨
This game has been amazing thus far a few hours in
Why ain’t they never make games about heaven? Lol
I love hellblade, but I also feel that her story is kinda finished after the first game. If they make her a badass superhero in hellblade2 they totally miss the point of her character/story
I was 3 lore's from the true ending 😓
I hated that I had to die to see the ending.
Not even one glimpse of gameplay
Like everything nowadays it's a trend like no substance
It's a story recap video, you dingdong
@@ForNoOne1 Damn, you dumb
No gameplay? Did you not watch the video at all? They definitely showed gameplay
@@kainesp2 I'm talking about hellblade II on xbox event
One of my favourites
My top 3 most fav games of all time ❤
can somebody play this on a 2.5g mushroom trip and let me know how it goes?
Xbox: we need more exclusives 💵💵💵💵
Ninja Theory: 🤑
Sony:🤷🏻♂️
Its not that simple at all. Running an independent studio is extremely difficult and limiting
Sony are the ones who are money hungry tbh
Just finished it !
Love this game! Ninja Theory are masters.
you gotta play this game when you high
Love you swaim
I want a new Eternal Darkness goddamit!!!
So everything just happened in her mind? I'm still confused.
10/10 game
Maybe revenge against her father?
Bit early, may as well keep it for 2022
MOOOOM , I can hear the strange voices again
Damn I'm so glad xbox purchased ninja theory hellblade 2 is gonna be epic now that they have Microsoft backing them
Loved this game gg xbox, thank you Microsoft for letting me have the next one on PC
What a coincidence i just finished the game today
No one is going to comment on how this video is done by Michael Swaim?
Why she is shaking an imaginary sword in the video? Bug?
ninja theory is microsoft's naughty dog
THIS game is scary
Hellblade was 1 hell of an experience so im really worried how the 2nd 1 will perform. This is a game that did not need a squeal at all but something i definitely want 4 part 2 is make the make harder becuz it was far 2 easy. The story made have been amazing but i dont want my hand 2 be held while going through the game. Make me feel that the challenge & struggle of Senua is MY challenge & struggle as well 2 defeat the enemies who stand in the way of catharsis.
amazing video and amazing game
How long has Swaim been at IGN and why wasnt I notified?
such an incredibly unique game i loved every minute
9:19 "follow us" ... you mean voices in my/your head? How about no? :P
I love the game the graphics but I gave up on the game after the Forrest puzzle. I saw a video how to best the puzzle and it was so hideous. Hopefully, it won't be hard to accomplish puzzles in the 2nd game
@don't hate me just block the game it self is somewhat easy but the puzzle are just bad in my opinion
I read it as Senua's Sega lol
Such an awesome game!
It’s almost here…
I really hope it's open world this time, 🙏
Their latest documentary focused on location scouting in Iceland (Death Stranding) for the game's setting, and they teased a seamless journey across Iceland (also like Death Stranding).
