During a big update on expectation for the launch of Senua's Saga #Hellblade2, Ninja Theory co-founder Tameem Antoniades has left the studio, confirmed by Xbox Game Studios acknowledging his unignorable absence on the latest updates of the game.

The game has achieved Unreal Engine 5 visual benchmark, regardless being capped at 30 fps for Xbox consoles, it is touted as true next-gen experience & one of the best good-looking games so far as game's realistic FMVs scenes will match movie theater's quality at 24 fps.

Hellblade 2's Storyline will be a narrative, linear action experience with very high production values, focus on story and cinematic craft, impactful combat & puzzles, expected to take players between 8 to 9 hours to complete.

Combat system was designed to be a one on one only, slow-paced and expect to feel brutal with swinging your sword always feeling heavy & impactful.

Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 launches DIGITAL ONLY on Xbox & PC, both for sale & Day One release with Game Pass on May 21, 2024 with no physical version announced (yet maybe?).

Fntastic never addresses openly about their development methods of the game aside that claiming that The Day Before was a product of 5 year developments cycle.

My takes on recent news...

-Overwatch League 2022 without strong sponsor could be a signal that Activision Blizzard has just let the scandal quiets down after Microsoft offered to buy them and pretend that Overwatch 2 hype take over.

Much tranquility and silence on this part unless they prove doubters wrong which in terms for the gaming community is good.

-Haven Studios being bought by Sony, means that things are looking good on their first game, enough for securing the "Only For Playstation" subtitle" .

-(Probably I should wear a aluminium foil as hat for this oone) CD Projekt Red's surprising announcement that a new Witcher game is coming and FOR THE FIRST TIME, using Unreal Engine instead of their in-house RED Engine tells me who Tencent is really influencing gaming markets with this success of Tim Sweeney and Epic Games.

I see many have forgotten Tecent big influences on Epic Games and in parallel, Epic Games influencing the gaming industry since a few years ago.

Still don't know if it a good thing or not at long term, but people that are against Chinese entrepreneurship reaching American enterprises more deeply are in a nightmare right now.

Wanting to push the week forward, CD Project Red has started teasing that it has started work on a new The Witcher title and while it could be a spin-off rather than "The Witcher 4", it has been heard that it will be developed with Unreal. Engine 5.

Apparently the use is due to its recent association with Epic Games and it is not that they abandoned their proprietary engine RED Engine 2.0 and obviously it will now be fully used in Cyberpunk 2077.

With this union, CD Projekt Red assures that they will use all the fruits for the continuous development of RED Engine, although it does not make ANY SENSE to me, if the efforts of new games will be with Unreal Engine 5.

We will see...

Queriendo impulsar la semana, CD Project Red ha comenzado a burlarse de que ha comenzado a trabajar en un nuevo título de The Witcher y, aunque podría ser un spin-off en lugar de "The Witcher 4", se escuchó que se desarrollará con Unreal Engine 5.

Al parecer el uso es por su reciente asociación con Epic Games y no es que abandonaron su engine propietario RED Engine 2.0 y evidentemente será ahora enteramente usado en Cyberpunk 2077.

Con este junte CD Projekt Red asegura que usarán todos los frutos para el continuo desarrollo de RED Engine aunque a mi no me hace PARA NADA SENTIDO, si los esfuerzos de juegos nuevos será con Unreal Engine 5.

Veremos...
