      She was actually a part of Ninja Theory team as their photographer and video editor. Then they asked her to perform, she didn't want to do it at first because she's never done it before but gave it a go. Then they were amazed by the test performance so they got her as the actress as well. She even says in the first performances she was very nervous and extreme and dramatic with her facial expressions because she was very nervous and has an introverted personality.

    This is my first time watching this. I'm barely getting into Hellblade, but the game is awesome. Especially with headphones. And it looks beautiful. Looking forward for the second one. Will be buying Xbox Series X and this game day 1

    Hellblade is probably one of the if not THE best game/story of all time. I would love to see more Senua and possibly a Senua & Aloy crossover... fingers crossed

    All games that have a story to tell need to be done this way. There's no better way to capture the human experience and show it to somebody in a game.

    Is that scene actually from the game though, that was immensely powerful. Right in the heart strings...
