Hades 2 steadily advances toward its complete launch while marking one year in early access. Discover the latest development updates and initial release platforms.
Celebrating Hades 2's Early Access Milestone
Approaching Final Version
Developer Supergiant Games commemorated Hades 2's one-year early access anniversary (beginning May 6, 2024) through social media updates. The team expressed gratitude to players while confirming steady progress toward the full release.
The studio stated: "Your enthusiasm continues motivating us as we refine Hades 2's potential. We appreciate all feedback during this development journey toward completion."
Following its predecessor's path, Hades spent 22 months in early access before full launch. However, indications suggest Hades 2 may complete development faster, potentially debuting exclusively on Nintendo Switch 2 initially.
Nintendo Switch 2 Launch Priority
Through Nintendo's Creator Voice series, Supergiant confirmed Hades 2 will premiere on Switch 2 first. With Nintendo's new console launching June 5, this suggests Hades 2 could arrive shortly thereafter.
The sequel builds upon the acclaimed rogue-like mythology adventure that captivated players worldwide. Developers note this marks Supergiant's first sequel endeavor, describing sequel development as requiring "profound consideration and reverence for our original creation."
Currently available in early access, Hades 2 will launch fully on Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch platforms before arriving on PC. For ongoing updates about release windows and features, explore our latest coverage below.
