What will you play this weekend? Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 or Paper Mario or something else?

We have reached the end of another week which, among various things, also led to some very interesting news on the gaming front, presenting itself as decidedly rich in terms of new releases. So the question comes up again: what will you play this weekend? There really is no shortage of choices, given the amount of stuff released in recent days.

Some of the most interesting titles of this first part of the year have arrived concentrated in recent days, if we also consider the new releases that came out in the previous weeks and which, obviously, have already added to the backlog of many.

Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2

As for this week’s news, we obviously start from Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2the new chapter of the adventure by Ninja Theory and Xbox Game Studios for PC and Xbox Series

It is a game-event above all on the technological front: as also reported by Digital Foundry, Hellblade 2 represents the new state of the art of photo-realistic graphics on consoles, especially with regards to the use of Unreal Engine 5, which can already represent a big reason for interest in this title.

It is above all a narrative experience, as also reported in our review, but the quality of the storytelling and the construction of the settings and characters make it a journey to truly experience to the full, capable of giving truly strong sensations to users. The fact that it can be played directly from Game Pass makes it particularly accessible to a large number of players.

Paper Mario: The Millennial Portal

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Portal retains its fantastic look

The other weight introduction these days is that of Paper Mario: The Millennial Portal, remake of the game of the same name released in 2004 on Gamecube. The remake on Nintendo Switch is a perfectly successful operation of preservation and modernization, especially from a technical point of view, given that the game was already very good at the time.

Like many Gamecube titles, this too is a pearl that remained semi-hidden, given the limited diffusion of the console at the time, which deserved to be relaunched in style thanks to the enormous success of the new Nintendo hybrid console, and the result was achieved fully with this operation.

The other possibilities

Among the other novelties of the last week we then find the excellent strategic Songs of Conquest, which takes up somewhat of the classic tradition of fantasy in the style of Heroes of Might & Magic, the new competitive shooter from Ubisoft, XDefiant, which presents itself as a good alternative to the classic shooters in this sector and Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord, remake of a great classic among video role-playing games.

All this without obviously mentioning the games released in the previous days, which continue to be very likely choices for this weekend, given the oppressive backlog that we’ve all been carrying with us since 2023. So tell me: what will you be playing this weekend?
