Ninja Theory's upcoming action game Hellblade will be coming to PC as well as PlayStation 4, PC Gamer has been told. The studio's chief, Tameem Antoniades, told the magazine that:

"I think PC offers us a level of freedom that we haven’t had before. We’re looking at everything we do on this project and figuring out better ways of doing things compared to how the traditional AAA console model works. And consoles are following suit with PC, but I think they’re years behind what things like Steam are doing.

If we want to do an open beta right now, it’s a little bit trickier to do that than on PC. Playtesting is a huge thing for us. Usability testing, getting people hands-on to try things out, get feedback, then roll that back in and improve the game... it’s always been essential for us to do that. Not every publisher has let us, because of the secrecy that goes into consoles and publisher-based businesses. As an independent we have the freedom to do that."

The company is looking into allowing mod support for the PC release, as well as support for 4K resolutions.

Hellblade was announced for the PS4 last August at Gamescom, with initial images for the title showing striking similarities to Ninja Theory's PS3 title Heavenly Sword. Hellblade is due to release later this year.
