Exciting news for physical game edition fans—Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 is now officially getting a physical release on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. The news comes several months after the game initially dropped as a digital-only game in May 2024. The news came via an ESRB listing that also identified Limited Run Games as the physical edition publisher.
A Win for Game Collectors
For gamers who value physical copies of their beloved games, this is welcome development for fans. Limited Run Games has established itself as a go-to source for collector’s edition releases that frequently come with added bonus materials such as art books, posters, and the like. Although no packaging information has been released as of yet, fans can anticipate something greater than a regular disc.
The move also indicates a larger strategy on the part of Xbox, as it gradually opens up its previously platform-exclusive titles to new markets—and in retail form. Other titles such as Hi-Fi Rush and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle have already done so.
Excitement Builds Ahead of Official Announcement
Despite Limited Run Games not officially announcing the release, the ESRB listing has caused a stir throughout the gaming community. Amid an era where digital downloads are taking center stage in the industry, people continue to crave physical copies of their games—particularly those as visually pleasing and narratively dense as Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2.
For die-hard fans and new players alike, this physical release is well on its way to being more than a game— a must-have collector’s item that lets you dive back into Senua’s thrilling world.
