Hades 2: Timed Exclusive for Nintendo Switch and Switch 2

May 29,25(6 months ago)

The much-anticipated sequel, Hades 2, is set to arrive on both the Nintendo Switch and the newly announced Nintendo Switch 2 as a timed console exclusive. Although an exact release date remains undisclosed, developer Supergiant has officially confirmed that the game will launch concurrently on PC (via Steam and the Epic Games Store) and across Nintendo’s platforms later this year.

This news comes as no surprise following the recent Nintendo Direct event, where hints were dropped regarding the game's arrival. However, Supergiant has since clarified that Hades 2 will not only debut on the upgraded Nintendo Switch 2 but also on the original Switch, marking its status as a timed exclusive for Nintendo consoles.

In a statement shared on X/Twitter, the developers outlined their plans:

"Hades II v1.0 will launch simultaneously on our Early Access platforms (Steam and Epic Games Store), Nintendo Switch 2, and the original Nintendo Switch."

At present, details concerning the game's transition to other major consoles such as the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S remain unclear.

Play Hades 2 builds upon the success of its predecessor, blending captivating storytelling with roguelike gameplay mechanics in an immersive dungeon-crawling adventure.

Our review of the early access version praised the game, scoring it 9/10, with comments highlighting its immense scope, polished design, and compelling new features. As noted, "Mel is awesome, the updated combat and progression systems are fantastic, and the sheer amount of content doubles that of the original."
