    Ninja Theory’s other major upcoming title, Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2, is being developed in Unreal Engine 5. There’s around 40 developers working on it, twice the size of the team that made Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice, with the team using technology like Quixel to scan assets. Project: Mara and Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 do not currently have release dates. Both of these games are connected to The Insight Project, an effort from Ninja Theory to study mental health with professionals while exploring ways of treating these problems through game design.
