With Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 still a few months away, details about the game’s narrative are still being kept under wraps. So, is Hellblade 2 going to be an open world game?
Helblade: Senua’s Sacrifice was a fairly linear experience. While some of its spaces were a little open, the game set you on a pre-determined path from A-Z across its 10-15 hour playtime.
With the release of its sequel on the horizon though, there might be the opportunity to expand the world of Hellblade with a more open, non-linear format.
So, will Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 be an open world game? Here is everything we know so far.
Will Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 be open world?
Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 will not be open world, as Ninja Theory confirmed the game will be a similar narrative experience to the first.

According to Ninja Theory Studio Head Dom Matthews in an official blog post on Xbox Wire, the game “will be a game crafted from the heart – a game similar in length to the first Hellblade, with a focused narrative, and sold digital-only at a price of $49.99 USD.”
He continued, “So, you can expect more of the same, but this time with the support to push our ambitions for immersion, fidelity and richness far further than before.”
This means Senua won’t be zipping around a giant map with collectibles and fast travel points. Nor will she be meandering between different side quests collecting materials to craft and forging new armor. If you have played the first Hellblade, you’re getting a similar experience here.
