BREAKING: The highly anticipated release of Hades 2 is just around the corner, set to launch on September 25, just 13 days from now. During a recent event focused on the Nintendo Switch, Supergiant Games announced that the full version will be available simultaneously on both the Switch and Steam platforms, marking a significant moment for fans.
This release will introduce exciting features, including a cross-save option, allowing players to seamlessly transfer their save data between different versions of the game. In the official announcement, Supergiant stated, “In v1.0, Hades II offers cross saves between the Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 versions and the version here on Steam.” This means that players who have been enjoying the game in early access will have the ability to continue their adventures on Nintendo consoles without losing progress.
The buzz around Hades 2 has been palpable, especially since it has been in early access for over a year. Many players were already convinced of its quality, with our reviewer Harvey Randall naming it his Game of the Year for 2022. Now, with its full release approaching, expectations are skyrocketing.
In a decisive move, Supergiant Games confirmed that the recent update is “likely the final patch” before the game transitions out of early access. This update adds tougher bosses and new weapon variants, enhancing gameplay and ensuring that players have a rich and challenging experience upon release.
Supergiant expressed their dedication to this sequel, stating, “Hades 2 is our team’s first-ever sequel, and we’ve been giving it everything we’ve got for more than four and a half years.” The team promises that this will be the largest game they’ve ever developed, aiming to provide a worthy successor to the original Hades.
As the clock counts down to September 25, fans are eager to see if Hades 2 will live up to the high bar set by its predecessor. With the combination of new features and a robust early access period, anticipation is at an all-time high.
Stay tuned for more updates as we approach the release date, and prepare for what could be one of the standout titles of the year. With the gaming landscape already buzzing with other significant releases this month, Hades 2’s launch is poised to be a pivotal moment in the gaming community.
