Senua’s Saga continues next year

The two and a half minute trailer looks pretty darn stunning if you ask me, starting with Senua struggling across a rain-swept beach, before whisking us away to other rather gorgeous looking vistas. For 60 seconds, it’s all calm and quite beautiful, but then BLAM. Combat time. And with some pretty hefty looking meat sacks, too.

Like the firstHellblade, Senua must fight her way forward using just her sword, axe and her wits, dodging fire-breathing creepos and shoulder-bashing skull-wearing weirdos. It’s not just humans she’ll be scraping with either. Toward the end of the trailer, we also see some more ethereal beings she’ll be slitting the throats of, and slicing up their… kneecaps. Do stringy blood monsters even have knee-caps? Let’s not dwell on that question.
