Supergiant Games, the acclaimed studio behind Bastion and Transistor, has raised the bar for rogue-like dungeon crawlers with the release of Hades II on Nintendo Switch 2.
As the highly anticipated sequel to the award-winning original, Hades II invites players to step into a richly imagined world inspired by Greek mythology.
Now, Nintendo Switch 2 users can experience this mythic adventure as never before, thanks to cutting-edge performance and new cross-save features with the PC version.
In Hades II, players assume the role of the Princess of the Underworld, embarking on a journey beyond the familiar subterranean realm.
Armed with legendary weapons imbued with arcane power, you will confront the Titan of Time, wielding the might of Olympus itself.
Throughout the adventure, you'll master forms of ancient witchcraft and dark sorcery, customizing your arsenal with potent magicks—and enhancing your strength further with blessings from a diverse array of Olympian gods, including Apollo, Zeus, and more.
The sequel builds on the deep mechanics of its predecessor, offering players near-endless options to develop their skills and tailor their playstyles. A hallmark of Supergiant Games is its commitment to narrative immersion, and Hades II continues this tradition with a cast of dozens of fully voiced characters drawn from myth.
Players will reunite with familiar faces while also meeting new gods, ghosts, and monsters, each contributing to the intricate storytelling and branching events unique to each run.
The ever-changing Underworld hides fresh locations, hidden challenges, new upgrade systems, and countless surprises—including mysterious elements like the Altar of Ashes, magical familiars, and rare reagents.
Every journey is distinct, ensuring that repeat playthroughs remain both engaging and rewarding. Accessibility remains a priority.
Hades II offers permanent upgrade paths and brings back the fan-favorite God Mode, ensuring that players of all skill levels can enjoy the escalating challenges and reap greater rewards.
Visually, the game stays true to Supergiant’s signature style, with hand-painted environments and meticulously detailed 3D character models.
Complementing the action is an electrifying original score, contributing to the game’s immersive atmosphere.
On Nintendo Switch 2, these visual and auditory achievements are elevated even further: when played in TV Mode, Hades II seamlessly runs at 120 frames per second, delivering smooth and responsive gameplay. For players seeking flexibility, cross-save functionality allows progress to be shared between the Nintendo Switch 2 and PC versions—making it easier than ever to continue battling the forces of Time, wherever you choose to play. Hades II is available now via the Nintendo eShop and on PC, continuing Supergiant Games’ legacy of innovative storytelling and genre-defining mechanics in the rogue-like space.
