Xbox console exclusive Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 will come to PlayStation 5 this summer in an Enhanced Edition with new features, Microsoft has announced.
There’s no firm launch date yet for the game on Sony’s console, and developer Ninja Theory is yet to detail what this Enhanced Edition’s new features will be.
Still, in a video update posted to social media today — the anniversary of the game’s original PC and Xbox launch — the developer said these extras would also arrive as a free update on other platforms.
“The team have been working hard to optimise Hellblade 2 for PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 5 Pro to give you the very best experience we can,” Ninja Theory said. “We look forward to sharing more details with you soon.”
Hellblade 2 is the latest in a line of Xbox console exclusives now arriving on PlayStation as Microsoft treats the platform as just another place you can play its first-party games. And based on recent U.S. sales data, Microsoft’s multiplatform push is very much paying off.
Microsoft bought Ninja Theory back in 2018, a year after the original Hellblade launched as a timed PlayStation console exclusive. Now, seven years’ later, the sequel’s console exclusivity is being dropped for a very different reason.

“A spellbinding adventure packed with cinematic spectacle and story surprises that maintains a surging sense of forward momentum and never wastes a second of its slender run time,” IGN wrote of the game in our Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 review.
