Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 Review Summary
In Short: A joyless slog of barely interactive entertainment and a muddled portrayal of mental illness… that just so happens to have the best graphics ever on a video game console.
Pros:
- The graphics are absolutely astounding and the best ever seen on a home console.
- Good acting across the board.
Cons:
- Repetitive and simplistic combat, with equally uninteresting and unchallenging puzzles.
- The reality of the plot makes no obvious sense and the storytelling skates over important elements.
