With just 18 days left until the launch of the action-adventure game Senua’s Saga, developers Ninja Theory have finally revealed the Hellblade 2 PC specs. In a recent announcement on X (formerly Twitter), the official Ninja Theory account shared detailed insights into the Hellblade 2 requirements necessary for running the game across various graphical presets.
PC fans can now find out the Hellblade 2 minimum and recommended requirements to get their PC in shape ahead of the game’s release.

While the Hellblade 2 requirements offer insights into the hardware necessary to run the game across different graphical presets, Ninja Theory has yet to disclose expected framerates for Hellblade 2 on PC. This decision follows recent criticism after revelations that the Xbox Series X and S versions of the game would be locked at 30 frames per second to give the game a “cinematic feel”, as stated by Hellblade 2‘s VFX director in an interview with GamePro.
But everyone knows that the idea of a cinematic feel carries no merit, and players would much rather get 60 FPS in most cases.
With Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 set to launch on May 21, PC gamers can now pre-purchase the game on Steam. For more updates, stay posted to RetroNoob.
