One of if not the best uses of audio in any game I've ever played, and as a VR game developer used to spatialized audio, that's saying a lot! Brilliant graphics with amazing animation and voice work from the whole cast, but especially Melina Juergens performance is something to strive to emulate.
In addition, Hellblade is now my goto example for how to integrate education and teaching into a game in a seamless way. The game teaches part of how it is to live with psychosis, but also teaches about Norse mythology but from the perspective of another concurrent culture, the Picts. This gives a really interesting perspective for the player to explore when it comes to mental health, and Norse society.
