We couldn’t possibly be more excited to announce that we’ve completed the Early Access development of Hades II, and officially launched v1.0 of the game!! Whether you’ve been playing all through Early Access or this will be your very first foray into our take on the Underworld of Greek myth, we welcome you and thank you for joining us!

I’m playing it right now after a year of not playing early access (I decided to wait until full release). It’s so much more polished and I’m glad I waited, from the get-go I noticed combat is a lot smoother, and all the menus and art have been improved.

Anybody playing it here? What’re your impressions?

    I’ve pulled an allnighter with this game after letting it sit in my library since it was in early access, it’s fucking awesome! i’ve stopped an hour ago because i realized that i started to slow down and make more mistakes; gonna take a nap and then it’s on again lol

    And yes, Death to Chronos!

    Nice, I’ve been holding off on playing it until 1.0. Might have to take a Silksong break and try it out.

    Ooooo, good to hear! I played something like 15 hours when EA first released before deciding to put it away until full release. It was definitely good then, so I’m excited to see what it has turned into now.

      Same here, you’re in for a treat. There’s a lot that’s been improved.

    I had played quite a bit of early access and had exhausted most (not all) the then content and I started up a run and already was seeing new so that was a delight!

    The time is great. I have an extremely long flight coming up next week.

    I planned to save willing until then, but I couldn’t resist.
