Hades 2 Early Access Officially Announced

Hades 2, the highly anticipated sequel of Hades, has officially announced its early access. According to Supergiant Games, the early access is set to launch in the second quarter of 2024 and players can look forward to diving back into the world of Hades on both Steam and the Epic Games Store. Further details about the specific date, pricing, and system requirements will be confirmed as the game gets closer to launch.

We now can confirm we’re planning for Hades II to launch in Early Access in Q2 2024 on Steam and the Epic Games Store. We’ll have more details on the exact date, pricing, and system requirements closer to that time.”

The concept of early access holds significant importance for the development team, as it played a vital role in the success of the original Hades. They made the decision to release it as an early access game before finalizing any other aspects, such as the underworld setting. With the experience gained from the first game’s early access development, the team approached Hades 2 with a better understanding of what a Hades game should be.

In addition, the team plans to conduct a technical test in the second quarter of 2024, just before the early access release. This test will involve a limited number of players and will primarily focus on identifying and addressing any technical or compatibility issues. By conducting this test, the team aims to provide a smooth playing experience for those who try Hades 2 in early access.

Moreover, the dev team plans to follow a similar approach to the original Hades for Hades 2’s early access. They will release several major updates after the early access launch, adding core content and refining the game based on player feedback. Each update will expand the story, introduce new characters, and deepen existing relationships.
