Hades 2 is making significant strides toward its full release as it marks its first anniversary in early access. Dive into the latest updates on the game's progress and its anticipated debut platform.
Celebrating the First Anniversary of Hades 2 Early Access
Progressing Toward Full Release
Supergiant Games, the developer behind Hades 2, recently celebrated the game's one-year milestone in early access, which began on May 6, 2024. In a heartfelt post on Twitter (X), they expressed gratitude to the community for their support and feedback, stating, "It's been incredibly exciting and eye-opening as we've worked to realize the potential so many of you see in our game. Thank you for all your feedback and patience as we get closer to the finish line!"
The original Hades followed a similar early access path, taking 22 months to reach its full release. However, Supergiant aims to expedite Hades 2's journey to completion, with plans for an initial time-exclusive launch on the Nintendo Switch 2.
Launching First on the Nintendo Switch 2
During a segment of Nintendo's Creator's Voice video series, Supergiant Games announced that Hades 2 will make its debut on the Nintendo Switch 2. With the Switch 2 set to launch on June 5, fans can anticipate Hades 2's release around the same timeframe.
As the eagerly awaited sequel to the beloved rogue-like game, Hades 2 marks Supergiant's first venture into creating a sequel. The developers have approached this project with "a great deal of fear and respect," highlighting the challenges and excitement of expanding on a successful formula.
Currently available in early access, Hades 2 is slated to launch first on the Nintendo Switch 2 and subsequently on the original Nintendo Switch, with a PC release to follow later. Stay tuned to our updates for the latest news on Hades 2's development and release schedule!
