Like the first game, Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 will be set in the Norse Mythology and will take an immense dive into the Celtic culture.

The first game- Hellblade Senua's Sacrifice garnished a lot of attention for its huge focus on psychosis and its impact, implying that video games are an incredible medium for mental heath awareness.

Hellblade, developed by Ninja Theory was a game made by a mere group of 20 people for the PS4, which later released on PC and Xbox One. Considering the fact that Ninja Theory is now a part of Xbox Game Studios, Hellblade 2 will only be releasing on Microsoft's console and PC.

Hopefully we will hear and see more of the game at next year's E3.
