I truly can’t recall the last time I purchased a game so quickly. Hades 2 is already the perfect sequel, even in early access.
The mechanics are familiar and similar to the original but 2 brings in countless new fun aspects. I personally feel that the addition of spell-casting brings a brand new challenge to the way you play, making you think more about the way you move and attack compared to the previous game. And the story is shaping up to be absolutely beautiful, the characters both new and old are captivating in every single way (especially our protagonist Melinoë).
It’s everything you love about the original game but with new, fun additions. Supergiant Games is the epitome of what all studios/developers should aspire to be, it’s evident that they have put every fiber of their beings into giving us fans what we want and that they are passionate about their craft. I will endlessly sing praise for the Hades games, they are truly flawless roguelikes, nothing can compare. Death to Chronos.
