If you're planning on playing Hellblade 2, you might be wondering how much you're missing out on if you haven't played the original Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice. Here's our take on whether you should play Hellblade 1 before Hellblade 2.
Senua's Saga: Hellblade II – Before You Buy
Yes, you should play Hellblade 1 before you play Hellblade 2. Here are the reasons why.
Hellblade 2 leans heavily on the events that took place in Hellblade 1. Without spoiling anything, there is a huge plot reveal at the end of the first game that is further explored in the second game. Without knowing this, you may be confused about what happens in Hellblade 2.
So many games these days take dozens or even 100+ hours to complete, but Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice takes only six to eight hours to complete (and a few more hours if you're aiming for 100 percent completion). In fact, Senua's Sacrifice is about the same length as Hellblade 2. You can beat Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice in a weekend and jump straight into Hellblade 2.
