Supergiant Games, the acclaimed developer behind the hit roguelike action game Hades, has shared an exciting update about its highly anticipated sequel, Hades 2. The studio recently celebrated the game's first anniversary in early access and hinted that the full release is "closer to the finish line."

The announcement came via a heartfelt social media post where Supergiant Games thanked the community for their invaluable feedback during the early access phase. While no exact release date was provided, the studio reaffirmed its commitment to delivering a polished and complete experience, likely in 2025.

Set after the events of the original Hades, the sequel follows Melinoe, the Princess of the Underworld, as she battles the Titan Chronos. The game retains the fast-paced, action-packed roguelike gameplay that fans love while introducing new mechanics like the Magick Bar and Arcana Systems.

Supergiant Games has emphasized that the full release will feature a more refined version of the game, including additional content and the true ending to Melinoe's story. The early access phase has allowed the studio to gather player feedback and make necessary adjustments, ensuring a high-quality final product.

Earlier this year, Hades 2 received the Warsong update, which introduced a new Olympian, a final boss for the Surface route, and other enhancements. These additions have kept players engaged while the studio works towards the full release.

With the game now "closer to the finish line," fans can look forward to more news in the coming months. Supergiant Games has a reputation for delivering exceptional experiences, and Hades 2 is shaping up to be no exception.

Currently available in early access on Steam and the Epic Games Store, Hades 2 offers players a chance to dive into its rich world and provide feedback that will shape the final release. The full version is expected to launch across multiple platforms in 2025.
