Wow, okay, so Supergiant Games is moving forward with Hades 2, and they’ve just dropped this thing called The Unseen Update. I mean, who names these things? But I digress. Anyway, they’re saying it’s all about boosting the combat experience, shaking up those Guardian battles, plus throwing in more drama with character relationships. Sounds intense, right? Somewhere, there’s a blog explaining all this, but let’s be real—reading patch notes can be a snoozefest unless you’re, like, really into that stuff. Maybe someone will read them to you with some flair—I’d pay to hear that.
So, they’re on the home stretch for the full release, which means a few more tweaks, like wrapping up the ending and adding achievements. Could be the cherry on top, unless you hate cherries—metaphorically speaking, of course. They’ve made it clear, though: no more major updates, just the necessary bug fixes. Kind of bittersweet, right? Like, they’re wrapping this up but no shiny new regions or moves.
Oh, and anyone keeping tabs on this? It hit early access back in May 2024 (time flies or drags, doesn’t it?), but no official release date yet, which is a bummer. Supergiant’s pretty pumped about finishing it, though, as if they’re in a footrace and can see the finish line… somewhere out there.
Platforms, right? Yep, it’s for Windows PC in early access. And hello, console fans—it’s heading to Nintendo Switch and—get this—Nintendo Switch 2! I didn’t even know there was a Switch 2.
Anyway, flashback to other updates like Olympic and Warsong, those were free, and so’s The Unseen Update, which is cool. So yeah, Hades II is shaping up to be a beefier, more epic monster of a game. Something to look out for, you know?
