On a huge screen and wearing helmets, we explain how we’ll enjoy Hellblade 2.
The years of waiting are over. On Tuesday, May 21that is, NOW we will be able to enjoy Hellblade 2, the sequel that tells us What happened to Senua after the award-winning first part?. We love everything Ninja Theory does, from Heavenly Sword and Enslaved to the aforementioned Hellblade, through this more than solvent reimagining of DMC. Mathematics tells us that we will experience the catharsis that accompanies good games.
And we also already know that the first Hellblade had to be played under certain conditions to do justice to the work the team did. His presentation of severe psychosis, endorsed by professionals and patients themselvesgave a new dimension to the power of video games and their impact on society.
What is needed for games like Hellblade and how to best counter Hellblade 2
Hellblade made the invisible visible, gave a name to the unnamed, made us sympathetic, striking a huge blow in the midst of our blissful ignorance. The game literally saved lives. One mother thanked the development team for freeing her son from suicidal thoughts. After playing Hellblade, the boy felt recognized, was able to escape loneliness and desperately asked his mother for help in the most difficult moments of his existence. It made the rest of the world realize a disease that is difficult to understand because it is difficult to explain. Ninja Theory took care of this task in Hellblade.
The development team has donated heavily to the cause and their game has won various awards. One of its most famous aspects was audio processing.. With the voices that tormented Senua, recorded using multi-directional microphones, playing with helmets was important. This is also painful, but necessary. Such a dark game has come play equally in the dark and alone. All this brought us closer to the madness of the tortured protagonist we embody. An epic experience.
That’s why one of the options we’re going to use in Mary when playing Hellbalde 2 is to use a virtual reality headset. Quest 2 and Quest 3 recently included Game Pass natively.. We can’t think of a better way than to enjoy the game on a screen that, due to its size, dwarfs the projector. In Quest 3 we could see what was happening around us in our reality, but we prefer the isolation of activating a virtual room. With the helmets, of course, everything is done in order to bring us as close as possible to what Ninja Theory wants to show us. Here we have already prepared. And you, how are you going to survive this stressful journey?
