Hades 2 1.0 Release Date Confirmed
It finally happened: Hades 2, after what felt like ages in early access, got its official 1.0 release date on September 25, 2025. For fans who’ve been darting through dungeons and facing down Chronos’s minions on repeat, this is the sort of game news that makes you want to run a victory lap… or maybe just order some extra pizza for launch night. I vividly remember that awkward phase after beating the original Hades, frantically searching for new roguelikes to fill the void. Spoiler: nothing really scratched that itch the same way. So when Supergiant teased the sequel, it felt like a communal breath of hope for the chaos-loving crowd.
The new full launch isn’t just a digital badge; it’s got a real weight to it. We’re talking about a release on Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, and of course PC (Steam, Epic), complete with cross-saves and, if you’re all-in on shiny tech, 120fps performance on Switch 2. If you’ve been in early access, the update’s free; fresh blood can jump in at the same $29.99 price. And yes, there’s new story content starring Melinoë, not Zagreus, ramping up that Greek myth flavor and offering surprises even to veteran players.
All those months of patch notes and cautious optimism pay off. Honestly, it’s wild remembering the hype when the first Hades hit consoles years after PC, and how “Switch version soon” became a meme in my friend group. With Hades 2’s big day locked in, there’s a real sense of the finish line ahead and maybe, just maybe, all of us chaos fiends will finally get closure (or, let’s be real, just another reason to keep “one more run” going long into the night).
