Hellblade 2's PS5 Deluxe Edition Comes With a Nice Bonus

PlayStation 5 gamers who purchase Senua Saga: Hellblade 2's Deluxe Edition will be treated to an unexpected bonus. Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 was initially released on Xbox just over a year ago as a day one Game Pass title. Despite selling quite poorly, the sequel to 2017's Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice was able to garner very positive reviews, settling at an 81 on Metacritic, the exact same score as its predecessor.

Xbox's multiplatform strategy that began early last year has been amplified in 2025 and shows no signs of slowing down. Earlier this year saw Bethesda's hit adventure game Indiana Jones and the Great Circle land on PlayStation 5 roughly four months after its initial Xbox release. Xbox's 2021 open world racing masterpiece Forza Horizon 5 also made the jump over to PS5 this year, making a huge splash on Sony's platform. Along with Gears of War: Reloaded, the second remaster of the original Gears of War, Ninja Theory's Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 is also set to arrive on PlayStation 5 later this summer in August.

Ninja Theory has an extra bonus up its sleeves for PS5 owners who buy the Deluxe Edition of Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 when it goes live on August 12. The deluxe package will include a new PS5 enhanced edition of Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, as well as a digital copy of the original game's soundtrack. This edition of Hellblade 2 will cost an extra $20, and Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice's enhanced edition will also be available to purchase on its own. Like the sequel, the original Hellblade already looks amazing, but it'll undoubtedly look even better with the help of the PS5 and PS5 Pro.

Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice Included in Hellblade 2's Deluxe Edition on PS5

Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 is poised to put up spectacular numbers on PlayStation 5 if Indiana Jones and the Great Circle and Forza Horizon 5 are anything to go by. Both games dominated the PlayStation sales charts when they arrived, outpacing their initial Xbox and PC sales, with the latter selling over 2 million copies on Sony's platform. Hellblade 2 might not do as well as Forza Horizon 5, but considering it's a style of game much more in-line with many of PlayStation's celebrated first-party masterpieces like God of War and The Last of Us, it wouldn't be surprising to see it do big numbers on the PlayStation sales charts, especially with the enhanced version of the original game launching simultaneously.

Fans are still awaiting official word from Limited Run Games about its rumored physical edition of Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2. If the rumors are true, it'll be interesting to see whether Limited Run does the same Deluxe edition with the enhanced original Hellblade included. It'll likely ship after the game's digital PS5 release, so PS5 gamers who aren't worried about physical games will only have to wait until August 12 to finally get their hands on Xbox's cinematic sequel.
