After a long wait, the critically acclaimed Hades 2 is now available on PS5, and it’s launching with a substantial new update from the game’s creators, Supergiant Games.
A free update is now available for the roguelike dungeon crawler, bringing with it a lot of improvements and bug fixes. It also includes some exciting new content!
There’s almost too much to mention, but you can view the full patch notes through the link.
Supergiant has highlighted the following as some of the bigger additions:
- Fated Prophecy Updates: Prophecies about characters such as Odysseus and Arachne now have new narrated conclusion scenes, which can be viewed in the Fated List once those Prophecies are fulfilled.
- Forever Gifting: Most Crossroads characters now can be gifted Bath Salts, Twin Lures, or Ambrosia indefinitely after forging a bond with them, in various brief new scenes.
- Going Steady: Characters with whom Melinoë can have non-Platonic relations may occasionally show interest in continuing to have such relations.
- New Dialogue Events: Many of the game’s characters have new things to say at various points throughout the story.
- …And More! Look for dreamy new decorative items in the Crossroads Training Grounds, a new alternate form for each Animal Familiar, and additional surprises we hope you’ll enjoy!
We’ve also made many changes to how weapons work, adjusting their special features – called Aspects and Boons. Some of these features have been completely redesigned, while others have just been slightly modified.
The game now features updated visuals with new animations for characters in Crossroads, along with refreshed artwork and effects throughout. The story has also been enhanced with new dialogue and voice acting for some characters.
You can now zoom in closer to the action if you want, and we’ve also fixed a lot of bugs.
But the most significant addition is a completely new way to play called Dream Dives, which wasn’t detailed in the official update list.
Dream Dives offer a fresh way to play where the areas you explore change each time, unlike the standard game’s fixed levels.
To start a Dream Dive, find the special bed in the Crossroads Training Grounds and interact with it. Make sure you’ve woken up Hypnos beforehand.
When you play Dream Dive, you’ll earn Shiny Stars, a new resource you can use to get exclusive rewards.
Now that Hades 2 is available on PS5, Supergiant Games has added even more improvements, making it a great time to download and play.
