Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II certainly left an impression when it was revealed alongside Xbox Series X at The Game Awards.

I often find myself scrolling through media outlets–like Twitter, for instance–shaking my head and breathing long sighs of disappointment when I come across posts that seemingly point the finger at video games for the world’s mental health problems.

Today Ninja Theory released a rather special accolade trailer for its latest game Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice.
