Supergiant Games stated through social media that Hades 2 was "closer to the finish line." It is about a year after the early access release on May 6. They thanked the players for helping in the game's growth and gave a hint about the state in which it now exists.
Hades 2 succeeds the popular roguelike action game Hades. It was put into early access on both Steam and Epic Games Store, with a tentative plan of a 2025 release depending on the direction of development and player feedback. The player embodies Melinoe, the Underworld's Princess, who sets out to defeat Chronos in Hades 2. The game continues the enjoyable and engaging formula of the previous game, introducing new features such as the Magick Bar and the Arcana Systems. Now, indications have been made about the release of the full game.
Supergiant Games used Twitter to commemorate the one-year mark of the early access of Hades 2. The tweet stated that the game is "closer to the finish line." It truly has been a "wonderful and enlightening journey" through the thoughts and the assistance from the players. While there is still no concrete release date, they remain optimistic for 2025—a belief that seems to be reaffirmed by the recent note.
Awaits in 2025, as we approach the full release of Hades 2, with an early access likely shorter than its predecessor. Supergiant promised a "more complete, more polished set of features" for the complete Hades 2 than what was found in early access and promises to "reveal the true story ending."
February welcomed the advent of an update by the name Warsong, having introduced a haul of new content to Hades 2. Major content additions included a new Olympian and final boss for the Surface route. With players continuing to share their feedback, it might just be time for Supergiant to make that full release announcement.
