The immensely popular dungeon crawler, *Hades*, is getting a sequel! Supergiant Games' *Hades II* is on its way, and with early access already underway, anticipation is high. Let's explore the expected full release date and what the developers have revealed so far.
Hades II entered early access on PC (Steam and Epic Games Store) on May 6, 2024, followed by a macOS release on October 16, 2024, including a substantial content update. Another significant update arrived on February 19, 2025. Console players will need to wait for the full release. Supergiant Games will use feedback from this extended early access period to refine the game before its official launch.
Considering the February 2025 update and the time needed for Supergiant Games to process feedback, a full launch could occur as early as Q2 2025 (April-June). An April release seems unlikely, leaving May 2025 as a more realistic timeframe—marking a full year since early access began.
Even in its unfinished state, Hades II early access demonstrates a strong sequel, exceeding expectations. A 2025 release is widely anticipated; the exact date depends on the remaining development and polish Supergiant Games plans. An official announcement feels imminent.
Development on Hades II started in early 2021, with many of the original game's team and voice actors returning. The developers have remained relatively quiet about the release date, preferring to let early access speak for itself. The most significant press engagement occurred around the technical test and initial early access launch in April/May 2024, with the team subsequently focusing on development.
During this May 2024 outreach (with outlets like Game Informer), Supergiant Games indicated their intention to retain the core elements of the first game while introducing new characters and features, including the protagonist Melinoë, to maintain a fresh and exciting experience. Fans eagerly await the full release to once again experience the dungeon-crawling that made the original Hades such a success.
