Synopsis: "Hellblade will be released for PlayStation 4 in 2016 and tells the story of Celtic Warrior Senua and her journey into Hell. The Hell in question is no ordinary Hell, but is in fact a Hell that is the manifestation of Senua's mental illness. Senua experiences psychosis, including hallucinations and delusions, as well as suffering from anxiety and depression. As a player you will witness Senua's living nightmare through her own eyes."
I'm...nervous about this. At this point I'm jaded and cynical enough that I don't trust a AAA video game company (or even an "indie-AAA" company) to handle a video game about mental illness in an accurate, respectful, and nuanced way (possibly with the exception of Silent Hill). But obviously I'll reserve judgment until the final game is released.
