'Senua's Saga: Hellblade II' Enhanced Edition Finally Brings 60FPS Mode To Consoles In Aug
Ninja Theory's cinematic action-adventure sequel, Senua's Saga: Hellblade II , is getting an enhanced edition on 12 August, finally bringing a 60fps performance mode to consoles, alongside its debut on the PS5. As announced via Xbox Wire, the game's enhanced version will come as a free update for current owners of the game across Xbox Series X|S and PC, adding a much-requested performance mode optimised for 60fps (although this feature won't be available on the Xbox Series S), as the game originally launched on consoles at a locked 30fps. Other new features include the return of the Dark Rot Challenge mode, a permadeath feature returning from the original 2017 title, Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice , which saw the Dark Rot grow on Senua's arm each time she dies, culminating in a permanent game over upon enough deaths. The update will also enhance the game's photo mode with additional tools, alongside including some behind-the-scenes developer commentary. The PS5 version of Senua's Saga: Hellblade II Enhanced will include all the additions mentioned above, alongside haptic feedback support for the console's DualSense controllers. The PS5 version of Senua's Saga: Hellblade II Enhanced will arrive in two editions: A standard edition priced at S$71.90, which includes the base game and all its additional features, and a S$89.90 deluxe edition, which includes the base game, its original soundtrack, and an updated PS5 version of Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice . Those who purchased the original 2017 game on the PS4 will also be able to upgrade it to the PS5 version for free. Senua's Saga: Hellblade II Enhanced will be released on 12 August 2025 for the PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC.

Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 hits PS5 on August 12
Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 will be released for PS5 on August 12. We knew the port was coming this summer, and now we have an actual date. Ninja Theory says the title will be optimized for both the standard-issue PS5 and the more powerful PS5 Pro. This is a real homecoming for the franchise, as Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice was originally released for PS4 back in 2017. That PS5 release date coincides with the cross-platform launch of Senua's Saga: Hellblade II Enhanced. This version includes a performance mode that pushes the frame rate up to 60FPS. Ninja Theory says this results in smoother gameplay that's "especially noticeable during combat and fast-moving moments." This mode won't be available for Xbox Series S. The PC version is getting a new "Very High" preset to push the settings to the max and the update includes optimizations to make the game Steam Deck Verified. We love to see it. Hellblade II Enhanced also includes a new gameplay mode that significantly amps up the difficulty, complete with perma-death. Beyond that, there's a developer commentary track and a refreshed photo mode. These features arrive as a free update. The PS5 version of the game will cost $50, though there's a Deluxe Edition available for $70 that also includes the soundtrack and an optimized version of the original Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice. For the uninitiated, Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 is a third-person adventure that first hit the Xbox and PC in 2024. The brutal and gorgeous game is set in Iceland during the 10th century. We called it an outstanding "interactive brutality visualizer" in our original review, going on to call out the game's "extended, extremely anxious and violent vibe." Let's hear it for simulated violence!
