Okay, so here’s the thing about Hades 2. Supergiant Games just dropped this big update, right? It’s called The Unseen Update, which sounds kinda mysterious. Anyway, this means they’re like, super close to finishing Hades 2 for real. Exciting? Maybe? Depends if you’re into that sorta thing or not.
So, what’s this update about? Apparently, it’s all about beefing up combat stuff, making Guardian fights more interesting, and, oh yeah, character relationships. Yeah, because who doesn’t want more drama in their virtual life, am I right? They’ve thrown in some new fighting styles for weapons and some new story bits, which sounds fun. You can read all about it on Steam or have someone read it to you in a dramatic voice. Honestly, that sounds like a blast. Like, imagine Shakespeare but with more swords.
Here’s the kicker, though. With this update out in the world, Supergiant’s shifting gears to finish the game. We’re talking endings, achievement lists—ya know, the whole shebang. But don’t get your hopes up for anything else major, like new game areas or abilities. They pretty much said, “Nah, that’s it.”
The game’s been in early access since May 2024—still no full release date. They’re teasing it like crazy, though: “We’re so close to done!” they say. Classic move. Keeps us all hitting refresh on those news pages.
Anyway, it’s available for Windows PC in early access. When it finally hits 1.0? Boom—Nintendo Switch and the new Switch 2 are getting it first. Seems kinda perfect that way, doesn’t it?
And one last thing—this Unseen Update is free. Just like those past updates, Olympic and Warsong. More content for zip? Sign me up. I think Supergiant just knows how to keep us hooked, adding all this new stuff.
Expectations this time? Hades II’s gonna be bigger, better, and probs more chaotic than ever. But who can say for sure? Not me.
