I'm not a fan of the art style. We have enough squad based arena type games out there already. If this wound up getting glowing reviews, I'd still pick it up for PC at least. Something like 84 or higher would get me to at least buy it and try it.

Having said that though, Hellblade's strength seems to be single player. So why they would spend their time on this is puzzling. I'm dissapointed that they're working on this and not another single player game. 

But that seems to be what MS wants all it's new studios to do. They've got to make multiplayer games for gamepass. Someone at Hellblade said they chose to work on this on their own. "MS didn't effect our choice to make this game." That could all be just marketing BS for all we know though. 

So you think Microsoft bought Ninja Theory, and they somehow completed a game in a single year? Let alone by a pretty small team?

Bleeding Edge has been in development years before MS even bought them.

No, I think they had been working on this years prior, but shelved it to work on other games. Lots of games get thrown on the back burner or cancelled before they are even announced. If MS didn't want multiplayer games for gamepass, I'm not so sure this would have ever seen the light of day.
