Sep 24, 2025Hades 2 is a stunning follow-up to an already incredible game. It does everything its predecessor did right, and then expands on it in meaningful ways that add depth to the gameplay, narrative, and visual experience (which was already deep in the original Hades). It's a shining example of how a sequel can take everything right about what came before, turn it all up to 11, and even go a bit further.

Oct 28, 2025Hades II builds on the success of the first game in its own distinctive way. The changes aren’t just about featuring a female protagonist—the new additions and customization options add a tremendous strategic dimension to the gameplay, with a wealth of content that offers excellent replay value. As with the first game, Hades II is a strong contender for Game of the Year—and for me, it truly deserves that title.

Sep 29, 2025I love this game. In fact, it’s got everything I loved about Hades. If you’re hoping for a sequel that reinvents the wheel, you might not find it here. Beyond the scavenger hunts and the excursions to the surface, this is a pretty familiar experience. On the other hand, you’ve got a whole new roster of spells and weapons to master, bosses to beat, and a new story to uncover. Yes, this is largely more of the same Hades we know and love. But I am totally okay with this. Hades 2 is an iterative improvement on the old formula. And the old formula was pretty much perfect. If you’ve been hoping for more Hades, you simply can’t pass up on Hades 2.
