Hades is one of the most popular rogue-like action role-playing titles. Released in 2020, the first game of the series gathered huge acclaim from its fanbase. However, the shout for the sequel erupted very soon, right after it. And here comes Hades 2, that too, out of nowhere.
This dungeon crawler game was announced at the Game Awards 2022. Fans have been waiting for Hades 2 badly since then, but they had no idea that Supergiant Games would suddenly make their dreams come true.
Hades 2 Has Been Released in Early Access
Without any hint or promotion, Supergiant Games has launched the highly anticipated Hades 2 on Steam and the Epic Games Store. However, the game is available in Early Access, which will cost you $29.99, which will allow you to play a portion of the final game with a lot of content still in development.

The developers believe that the legit reviews from the fans who will be playing the game in early access mode will help the game shape up for its final version. As of now, there is no confirmation on when this early access period will end—not before at least 2025. Previously, the developers announced that the game would launch after a technical test, like somewhere around Q2 2024.
Fans are going absolutely crazy looking at the sudden release of this dungeon crawler.
This fan is absolutely astonished to see how a game like Hades 2 came out without even a whisper. There were no promotions or teasers before the release of this game.

It’s fascinating how this unexpected release of the game has made a fan play the game all the time so much that he is not going to meet his sister until the early access part is finished.

Everything We Know So Far About Hades 2
Hades 2 follows in the footsteps of its worthy predecessor. As of now, the early access version won’t feature any achievements. Also, some serious mechanics will not be available in this game. All of these will be added to the game once the game gets its first patch of the full version.
The game will be based on the Underworld of Greek mythology, where players have to battle using dark sorcery against the sinister Titan of Time.
Hades 2 will be deeply connected to the dawn of witchcraft. Playing the game, fans have to fill the shoes of the immortal Princess of the Underworld to battle against the Titan Army with the full might of Olympus.
The sudden launch of Hades 2 has made fans go gaga over this highly anticipated title. Now it’s up to Supergiant Games when they will surface the full version.
