After a long wait, the Hades 2 early access from Supergiant Games is finally available on Steam and Epic Games Store. The game went through a short testing period a couple of weeks ago, with gamers waiting for the sequel since it was first announced last year during The Games Awards. Almost four years after the release of Hades, Supergiant Games is back with the phenomenal sequel to the legendary action RPG, roguelike title.
While the title features a different protagonist this time, gamers can still enjoy the similar hack-and-slash style combat filled with roguelike difficult fighting. As the title is still in its early access period, developers have promised more improvement over time.
