Xbox’s latest exclusive is much faster to complete than people were expecting
IT’S been seven years in the making, but the successor to Hellblade is finally here.
Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 is a highly-anticipated sequel to Senua’s Sacrifice and is available to play for free on PC or Xbox Series X|S via Game Pass.
The original game was not particularly long, though rich with story, but people thought that the sequel might be longer.
If you were wondering whether you have time to dive in and play Hellblade 2, here is all the information you need to know.
How long to beat Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2
Hellblade 2 is similar in length to the original game, and will take the average player around 8-10 hours to complete.
This time will obviously depend on your choice of difficulty, with harder difficulty settings taking longer, and playthroughs on easy difficulty being shorter.
