I am sorry, is {that a} jetpack? Hades 2’s first main replace is dwell and I am fairly certain that is a jetpack within the trailer. Supergiant Video games calls it the “Black Coat” however that is a jetpack with big metallic fists, which is 2 legs away from a mech.
The Olympic Replace is out right this moment and together with the brand new jetpack weapon is a whole checklist of updates to the roguelike motion RPG, together with a brand new area, boss combat, and round 2,500 new voice strains. If Hades 2 weren’t in early entry we might name this an growth, but it surely’s only one the free main updates rounding out the sport earlier than it totally releases subsequent yr.
Supergiant is making it actually arduous to attend for the total Hades 2 when there’s already a lot stuff to do already. Even minor issues, like the flexibility to embellish the Crossroads, your woodsy principal hub, are in there now. Like I mentioned when it debuted earlier this yr: If you’d like extra Hades, simply play Hades 2 proper now. Supergiant made a pledge to do its finest to protect your saves all the best way to launch so there’s actually no threat.
There are numerous bullet factors to undergo within the patch notes, however a number of standouts embrace:
- A brand new area for the different half of the sport (no spoilers!)
- A brand new jetpack weapon known as the Black Coat
- A brand new choice to embellish the Crossroads
- New characters and tons of recent dialogue
- New animal familiars
- Numerous new music
- A brand new potential to save lots of Arcana card setups
- A handful of recent boons to play with
A fast CTRL F for “new” offers me round 98 entries and the vast majority of them are legitimately new issues. Hades 2 might be going to really feel like a special recreation for those who’re like me and have not jumped in since across the time it dropped.
The roadmap for Hades 2’s future on the primary menu has additionally been renovated. Supergiant notes that the subsequent replace will not take so long as this one and needs to be out early subsequent yr.
