Another round, another technical comparison for Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2, this time placed side by side with Horizon Forbidden West by ElAnalistaDeBits: which game has the best graphics?

Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 was compared with Horizon Forbidden West by ElAnalistaDeBits, as part of a head-to-head which also in this case arises as a mere curiosity, as the two products are very different on a structural level.

In fact, if the Guerrilla Games title is an open world action game, characterized by a cartoonish style for the characters, the Xbox exclusive by Ninja Theory has linear scenarios and a substantially more realistic approach .

The first and most obvious difference between the two games lies in the lighting and general color rendering , which in the case of these two titles is a bit like comparing day and night, clearly.

Two very different styles

Analyzing the character models and the quality of the assets, both Hellblade 2 and Forbidden West seem to show the same level of detail , although here too the impact of the lighting on the surfaces makes the two products very distant.

Lights, shadows, contrasts and effects seem superior in Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2, and it is interesting to note how ElAnalistaDeBits’ comparison was made by placing the PC versions of the two titles side by side .

Set with the maximum settings on an RTX 4080 Super , the two editions therefore fully express the technical potential of the two exclusives compared to what is available on PS5 and Xbox Series
