Trailer/Review Scores/Discussion

Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, or simply Hellblade, is a dark fantasy psychological horror action-adventure video game developed and published by Ninja Theory, released worldwide independently on Microsoft Windows and PlayStation 4 on August 8, 2017. Described by Ninja Theory as an "independent AAA game", it was developed by a team of approximately twenty developers and written and directed by Tameem Antoniades, with additional writing by Dr. Elizabeth Ashman Rowe, a university lecturer specialized in Scandinavian culture.

Inspired by Norse mythology and Celtic culture, Hellblade follows Senua (played by actress Melina Juergens), a Pict warrior who must make her way to Helheim by defeating otherworldly entities and facing their challenges, in order to rescue the soul of her dead lover from the goddess Hela. In parallel, the game acts as a metaphor for the character's struggle with psychosis, as Senua, who suffers from the condition but believes it to be a curse, is haunted by an entity known as "The Darkness", voices in her head known as "Furies", and memories from her past. To properly represent psychosis, developers worked closely with neuroscientists, mental health specialists, non-profit organizations, and people suffering from the condition.
