Hades 2 will have you thirsting for gods all over again, releasing in early access 2023

Hades

Defy the god of the dead as you hack and slash out of the Underworld in this rogue-like dungeon crawler from the creators of Bastion, Transistor, and Pyre.

In a surprise sequel announcement from Supergiant Games, a sequel to 2020's Hades is officially in development, with Hades 2 coming next year.

After a lengthy but deserved acceptance speech from God of War's Christopher Judge, the first big reveal of The Game Awards was Hades 2, with a brand new god that certainly looks like she has something to do with Zagreus with those heterochromia eyes, with Supergiant Games revealing that she is Melinoë, the immortal Princess of the Underworld. This time you'll be trying to kill the god Chronos, getting aid from gods like Moros, Apollo, Nemesis, and presumably plenty more.
