Previously, the Hellblade series received high praise for its atmosphere, sound, and storytelling, but some of the audience criticized it for its short duration and confined nature.
The developers stated that the new game is being created as a larger adventure than previous installments. There is no exact duration yet, as the project is still in development, but the amount of content will significantly increase.
Ninja Theory emphasizes that this is a more expanded action game, while maintaining a focus on Senua's story and her personal journey.
The developers also note that the game will retain the core of the series — an emotional story, heavy atmosphere, and symbolism — but will offer more world exploration, dynamics, and combat encounters.
