“The first-ever sequel from Supergiant Games expands on the strengths of the original myth-based roguelike dungeon crawler, delivering an all-new, fast-paced, endlessly replayable experience rooted in Greek mythology and its links to ancient witchcraft.”
Hades II is now available on PS5 through the PlayStation Store for $29.99. The game is offered as a single edition, so players won’t need to worry about missing out on additional content or DLC.
When it was initially released last September, Hades II received universal critical praise. According to review aggregator Metacritic, it holds an average score of 95 based on 54 critic reviews. Currently, it ranks among the top 50 most well-reviewed games on Metacritic.
Hades II received several award nominations last year, including Game of the Year at The Game Awards 2025, Outstanding Achievement in Game Design at the D.I.C.E. Awards, and Best Visual Art at the Game Developers Choice Awards. It also claimed awards such as Best Action Game at The Game Awards 2025 and Action Game of the Year at the D.I.C.E. Awards.
