Hades 2 was revealed back in 2022 during that year's The Game Awards. However, the team at Supergiant was largely quiet about the game after that until it announced that Hades 2 is coming to early access during"Q2 2024." We've hit that window, and now, Supergiant is starting to ramp things up by revealing an upcoming technical test on Steam.
How To Sign Up for the Hades 2 Technical TestIf you want to sign up for the Hades 2 technical test, all you need to do is head to the game's Steam page, scroll down, and click the"Request Access" button under the"Join the Hades 2 Playtest" banner. Of course, clicking that button doesn't guarantee that you'll get into the test, but Supergiant will add players in waves during the event.
Supergiant didn't specify exactly when the event will start, but it should be available very soon. It's important to note that the test will only include"the first major area of the game, and other early-game characters, systems, and content." Plus, save data won't transfer over, so don't assume you're getting a headstart on the early access version of Hades 2 outside of learning some of the early mechanics.
What's New in Hades 2?Hades 2 is the first sequel Supergiant Games has ever developed. Given the success of the first game, it's no surprise that they're going back to that well, but it will be fun to see what they do to improve the original game. This time out, players will take on the role of Melinoe, the Princess of the Underworld and Zagreus' sister, as she tries to take down the Titan of Time.
Otherwise, details are relatively sparse. We know Melinoe will use more stealth-based abilities, but Supergiant is keeping most of the upcoming game close to its chest. That will all change soon when Hades 2 launches into early access on PC. Like the original game, it'll also come to consoles at a later date.
