Microsoft has just announced Senua, a new action-adventure that will be set in the Hellblade universe. Senua will come out in 2027, and below you can find its debut gameplay trailer.
In this game, Senua will fight to reach the afterlife and reunite with those she loved and lost, battling forces that threaten all she believes in.
Players will break through a vision of Senua’s mind to confront the threat within and without, mastering tactical combat to overcome nightmarish creatures born of myth and fear. They will explore a world shaped by memory and meaning as Senua seeks a path to inner peace, in a defining standalone story of defiance, choice, and legacy.
According to the devs, players will explore a fantastical vision of purgatory and fight manifestations of fear, destruction, and pain through tactical, visceral combat. They will master weapons, dual‑wield in the chaos of battle, and unleash powerful abilities to overcome the monsters of the mind and fantastical bosses that stand in the way of their quest.
You will journey into a Celtic warrior’s purgatory, experienced through the lens of psychosis. You will explore an interconnected world defined by myth, memory, and pain. Moreover, you will use perception and puzzle‑solving to uncover the truths and lies behind Senua’s path to peace.
Senua will have a standalone story. This means that it will be an ideal entry point to Senua’s journey. In other words, you won’t have to play the previous Hellblade games.
Enjoy and stay tuned for more!
