We awarded the game an 8\/10 score and concluded: &#8220;As a character action game, it has decent if underdeveloped combat and a mixture of some excellent and some overplayed puzzles. But it\u2019s the way that the title utilises the unique attributes of the medium to raise awareness of mental health that elevates this release beyond the sum of its parts.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Check out <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ZJdZuZoi-M0&amp;ab_channel=DigitalFoundry\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the Digital Foundry analysis<\/a> for more information on what this native PS5 version is supposed to bring:<\/p>\n<p class=\"youtube-watch\"><a title=\"Watch This Video on YouTube\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ZJdZuZoi-M0\" class=\"external\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Watch on  YouTube <\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"youtube-sub\">Subscribe to <a class=\"external\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/pushsquare?sub_confirmation=1\" target=\"_blank\">Push Square<\/a> on <a class=\"sub-button external\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/pushsquare?sub_confirmation=1\" target=\"_blank\">YouTube160k<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The previously announced native PS5 version for Hellblade: Senua&#8217;s Sacrifice is available now, alongside Senua&#8217;s Saga: Hellblade 2,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":63826,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[59,33881,112,86,56,54,55,10935],"class_list":["post-63825","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-gb","tag-hellblade","tag-ps5","tag-technology","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom","tag-xbox-game-studios"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/63825","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=63825"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/63825\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/63826"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=63825"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=63825"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=63825"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
