Hades 2 Preview: Bigger, Better, and Still in Early Access
Hades 2's Narrative and Characters Take Center Stage
Hades 2 is an upcoming roguelike sequel to the critically acclaimed Hades. Even in its early access form, it shows immense promise, feeling impossibly huge and unbelievably polished. The game is a strong contender for Game of the Year 2023, and it's the closest thing to a perfect roguelike yet created.
Hades 2 introduces significant changes to the formula, including a more open and branching narrative with characters who have more to say. This shift adds depth and complexity to the game's story and world-building.
Hades 2's Gameplay Evolves
Despite the significant narrative changes, Hades 2's core gameplay remains largely intact. Players will once again control Zagreus, the son of Hades, as he attempts to escape the underworld. The game features fast-paced combat, a variety of weapons and abilities, and a roguelike structure that encourages multiple playthroughs.
However, Hades 2 does introduce some new gameplay elements, such as a new cast system that allows players to summon powerful abilities during combat. These changes add depth and variety to the gameplay, while still maintaining the core elements that made the original Hades so successful.
