Earlier this year, rumours popped up claiming that the Xbox exclusive Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II would be going multi-platform. Sure enough, just last week Microsoft officially announced Hellblade II Enhanced for the PlayStation 5 coming this Summer. As expected of a Microsoft release, there won’t be a full-on physical release. Fortunately, those who still subscribe to physical media will be able to get a disc copy of Hellblade II through Limited Run Games.
As reported by Wario64, the ESRB recently rated Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II for the Xbox Series consoles as well as PS5. Interestingly, the listing has Limited Run Games as the partner for a physical release.
While Limited Run Games has been through some controversies in the past due to various quality issues (among other things), it seems as though this will be the best way for those wanting a physical copy of Hellblade to obtain one.
As mentioned, Microsoft has moved away from physical game releases in recent years, with a majority of first-party Xbox titles being exclusively digital – and even the physical PS5 releases being little more than a DRM-disc.
As such, hopefully at the very least this LRG version of Hellblade II should include the full game’s data directly on the disc. While it would have been preferable that Microsoft themselves handled disc printing, this is still preferable to the alternative of no discs whatsoever.
