- Hades 2 is coming to PS5 and Xbox on April 14
- The PS5 and Xbox Series X editions will run at 120 frames per second
- The new versions will arrive alongside new "bonus content and quality of life improvements"
Supergiant Games has announced that its award-winning roguelike, Hades 2, will finally launch on PlayStation and Xbox next month.
The news comes from the Xbox Partner Preview on March 26, where the studio confirmed that the Hades sequel will be released on PS5 and Xbox Series X and Series S on April 14. It will also be available via Xbox Game Pass.
The PS5 and Xbox launch follows the game's official version 1.0 release last year, which arrived on PC, Nintendo Switch and Switch 2.
The developer confirmed that the PS5 and Xbox Series X versions will run at "an ultrafast 120 frames per second" and launch alongside brand new "bonus content and quality of life improvements."
"If you already have the game, expect these in a patch releasing that the same day, and we'll have full patch notes then," it said in an official post.
The contents of the bonus content patch remain a mystery, but in the new, gorgeously animated trailer, which sees the main character Melinoë gearing up for battle, there are a few hints as to what players can expect.
For instance, it looks like there will be a new scene featuring Heracles at the hot spring, a place where players can further their relationship with several other romance options.
Hades 2 made its way into TechRadar Gaming's Game of the Year 2025 list thanks to its thrilling combat and gameplay loop, striking visual art style, and electric soundtrack, making it a worthy successor to one of the best roguelike games of all time.
"Roguelikes are usually a hit or miss for me, but like the first game, Hades 2 has managed to hold my attention and keep me coming back even after hours of battling through the underworld," I wrote.
"Its unique characters and compelling narrative, inspired by the great Greek myths, and dynamic gameplay accompanied by a diverse replayability structure and challenging boss fights, will keep you on your toes and reward you for your efforts."
