Ninja Theory's critically-acclaimed action-adventure game, Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, was one of the most popular games released in 2017. If you have yet to experience it, developer Ninja Theory has released an optimization patch today on Xbox Series X/S, updating a number of visual elements for new-gen consoles.
The new update allows the game to take full advantage of Microsoft's ninth-generation gaming hardware, meaning Hellblade not only gets improved basic visuals but includes additional perks, such as DirectX raytracing and a resolution mode.
If you own an Xbox copy digitally or physically, you will receive the update at no additional cost; the game is also available on Xbox Game Pass as well as Xbox Cloud Gaming.
Hellblade is not the only game released on a previous console generation that received an Xbox Series X/S optimization patch. Several first-party Microsoft titles released on the Xbox One received similar updates, including Halo: The Master Chief Collection and Gears 5.
The update comes at an interesting time for Senua's Sacrifice, as the game recently celebrated its four-year anniversary yesterday. Ninja Theory is currently working on a sequel titled Senua's Saga: Hellblade II, which was announced in late 2019 and will launch as an Xbox Series X/S console exclusive and Windows 10 PCs, with the game guaranteed to be available on Xbox Game Pass at launch.
