“Hades II” Officially Launches September 25,Leaving Early Access
Supergiant Games announced today that Hades II,the highly anticipated sequel to the award-winning roguelike,will officially release on PC and nintendo Switch on September 25,2025. The launch marks the end of the game’s Early Access period and includes a console exclusive premiere on Nintendo Switch and the forthcoming Nintendo Switch 2.
Players will take on the role of melinoë, sister to Hades protagonist Zagreus, and, with the aid of both new and returning Olympian gods, challenge the Titan Chronos. A recently released trailer showcases the game’s powerful voice acting, vibrant soundtrack, and promises dozens of hours of gameplay within the underworld.
The proclamation follows a similar pattern to that of Hollow Knight: Silksong, which released just two weeks after revealing its launch date, causing a ripple effect of release date adjustments among other indie titles.It remains to be seen if Hades II‘s debut will trigger a similar “indie-pocalypse.”
Hades II first entered Early Access in May 2024,with this full release incorporating feedback gathered from players during that period.
