## Summary

Ninja Theory has announced Senua, a sequel to the Hellblade series, revealed at the Xbox Games Showcase. Studio Head Dom Matthews explained the name change signals a fresh direction while retaining intimate storytelling and high production values. The game will feature more dynamic combat with player choice in how to engage enemies, more weapons, and boss battles, alongside traversal and puzzle-solving. The story is set in Purgatory after the events of both previous games, but is designed to be accessible to newcomers. Senua is planned for release next year on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox PC, Steam, and PlayStation.
