Ninja Theory has just announced Senua, the next game in the Hellblade series, and it's launching in 2027.

The studio unveiled the game at the Xbox Games Showcase 2026 with a gorgeous cinematic trailer that features our first look at some brutal third-person gameplay.

"Announcing Senua, a new action-adventure set in the Hellblade universe," the video's description reads.

"Senua, a Celtic warrior, is trapped between life and death in a fractured vision of purgatory. She must fight to reach the afterlife and reunite with those she loved and lost, battling forces that threaten everything she believes in."

The game doesn't have a set release date just yet, but we do already know that it won't be an Xbox console exclusive. You'll be able to play it on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and Series S, and PC.

"Senua is a single player action-adventure game and a bold new chapter in Senua’s story," the studio said.

"It builds on the emotional depth and cinematic presentation of the Hellblade series, while expanding the gameplay with varied and exciting tactical combat — including encounters against multiple enemies with multiple weapons — alongside exploration, puzzle-solving and greater player agency.
