'Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice' Could Come To Xbox One Soon
The dark fantasy action-adventure title "Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice" has enjoyed high sales and even higher praises following its release to the PlayStation 4 and PC. Now, Xbox One owners could soon experience the acclaimed title as the game's "time exclusivity" is set to run its course.
The first hints of the game's arrival to the Xbox One came from Australia. The Australian Classifications Board, the organization responsible for rating games in the country, rated the game as a multi-platform game on March 6.
While "Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice" is technically multi-platform, being available for the PS4 and PC, it's the date of the classification that is important. For more definitive proof that teases the game's Xbox One debut, fans will have to turn to Taiwan.
