You don’t see much Hellblade cosplay around, but this shoot by Anna “Ormeli” Moleva and photographer Aku more than makes up for a lack of quantity.

"When we see people innovate in an interesting and impactful way, we are very quick to figure out how to capture inspiration from innovation. When we see things that appeal to our audiences, we are very good at being inspired by those." — Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick uses his verbal judo black belt to turn fast following the latest trends into an inspired creative endeavour.

Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice has been lauded for mind-bending cinematics and top-notch voice acting, but it's worth remembering one fight in particular that shows the game operating at the peak of its potential.

Focusing on themes of grief and trauma, Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice employs a number of level design and mechanical tricks to help players empathise with the main character's struggle. We take a closer look in this critical video.

I can't tell if this Hellblade cosplay is real or not ... but that just works with the theme, doesn't it? This beautiful (if unsettling) game now has the beautiful (if unsettling) cosplay it deserves.

Games lie to us all the time. Recently, some developers took to Twitter to share a few of their ones, revealing design tricks used in games ranging from Surgeon Simulator to Bioshock.

Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice isn't a very long game, but it sticks with you when it's over. With a storyline that covers some dark themes and its unrelenting depictions of psychosis, it certainly took me some time to sort through everything that went down. So let's talk about the ending.

Alessandro "Talexi" Taini is one of the first artists I ever featured here on Fine Art, so it's cool to circle back around today and feature his work on Ninja Theory's latest, Hellblade.

Today on Highlight Reel we have Michael Bay chase scenes, ladders, photo bombs and hockey physics!

I went into Hellblade expecting another fast, fun action romp from the folks at Ninja Theory, who previously made Enslaved and DmC: Devil May Cry. After playing for about 20 minutes, I had to put the controller down. I was so stressed out that I couldn't take it any more.

When you first start Hellblade, a new game from Ninja Theory (Enslaved, DmC) released yesterday on PC and PS4, you are greeted with an ominous warning: Die too much and you'll lose your save file.

Video: Ninja Theory's upcoming action game, Hellblade, has a protagonist with expressions that actually look, well, human. Here's how they did it.

Hellblade, Ninja Theory's upcoming action game that explores mental illness, wants a protagonist that looks as believable as possible. This means two things, as far as the developers are concerned: nailing the protagonist's expressions so they look human, and giving the character a body with realistic proportions.

Usually, when you hear about games that never make it out into the world, you get a few screenshots. Maybe a trailer teasing what might have been. But the dev studio behind Heavenly Sword and DmC are showing damn near all the work they did on a title that never saw the light of day. It's great reading for anyone curious about how big-budget games get made.
