505 Games has announced that Hellblade: Senua`s Sacrifice will be getting a physical retail edition. Coming to both Xbox One and PS4, the physical edition will be available on December 4.Originally releasing in 2017 as a PS4 console exclusive, Hellblade eventually launched on Xbox One in 2018.

The game puts you in the shoes of Senua, a Pict warrior who`s traveling through a long-abandoned Nordic land. Her journey forces her to confront her guilt-ridden past that takes on the form of literal enemies, spectral remnants, and vivid hallucinations. Hellblade forces you to undergo numerous trials--ranging from harrowing fights to perspective-bending puzzles--and captures the surreal experience of someone suffering from poor mental health.In our Hellblade: Senua`s Sacrifice review, GameSpot editor Alessandro Fillari gave the game an 8/10, writing, `Hellblade`s most notable achievement is the handling of an incredibly sensitive subject matter within an engaging and well-crafted action/adventure game. At its heart, the story is about Senua`s struggle to come to terms with her illness. In the process, she learns to find the strength within herself to endure, and to make peace with her past. And in a profound and physical way, we go through those same struggles with her, and come away with a better understanding of a piece of something that many people in the world struggle with.`Hellblade: Senua`s Sacrifice is available for Xbox One, PS4, and PC; and can be played in VR on Oculus Rift and HTC Vive.
