Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice is coming to Nintendo Switch.

A port of the award-winning game from Ninja Theory was announced during today's Nintendo Direct. Hellblade is a fantasy action game starring a protagonist who is suffering from the effects psychosis. The game was developed with the assistance of neuroscientists and people living with psychosis.

I liked Hellblade when I played it on PS4. Curious how much they had to slash the game's presentation to make it work on Switch.

According to Kotaku UK, QLOC is handling the port. (http://www.kotaku.co.uk/2019/02/14/hellblade-senuas-sacrifice-switch-port-is-developed-by-qloc-supports-motion-control) They're a bit of an unknown quantity; I've never played any of their past work, and they've never done anything for Switch yet so we don't have a baseline to work off of.

Nevertheless the trailer looked great, so I expect good work from them.

QLOC is a very good port house. They handled the Street Fighter 4 ports on PC. They also were brought to fix High Voltage's terrible MKX PC port. MKXL's PC Port was the quality that MKX for PC should have been.
