[The game’s Steam page](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1145350/Hades_II/) has other details, saying you’ll be equipped with the “legendary weapons of Night,” which can be infused with ancient magic for some extra punch if you need it, and that you’ll encounter other Greek gods like Apollo and Zeus that will bless you during your journey. The post describes the game as being “rooted in the Underworld of Greek myth and its deep connections to the dawn of witchcraft.” You’ll explore a “bigger, deeper mythic world,” wiping out Chronos’ cronies all in a bid to take the time-bending bastard down for good. Hades 2 boasts a beautiful art style with some seemingly slick-looking combat, all packaged in an endlessly replayable rogue-like format with boons and spells.

'Hades 2' is coming to Early Access in 2023 (NME.com)

Supergiant Games is developing their first ever sequel with Hades 2 letting players return to hell to play as an all-new character.

There’s a trailer, revealing a game that will immediately look familiar to fans of Hades, with the same sense of kineticism and action that made the original so beloved. “And I think part of the reason is that there’s a little superstition around that for our team because we want to make sure that we’re fully committed to the thing that we’re currently working on instead of, you know, counting our chickens before they hatch.” Hades 2 is coming to Steam’s Early Access platform in 2023.

Here's What We Want to See in 'Hades 2' (Collider.com)

We hope Supergiant Games makes some tweaks to make their almost-perfect formula for Hades 2 even better.

While Hades has a solid gameplay loop, we fell in love with the game due to its fantastic characters. In Hades 2, Supergiant would do well in streamlining the currency system to make the game less grindy. If there’s one thing Supergiant cannot change for the sequel is the love the studio shows for storytelling. Of course, just copying Hades’ formula is fine, but if Supergiant decides to rework the combat system, we could have another Game of the Year contender in Hades 2. With the power of time travel, each run of Hades 2 could have random biomes, each with its own unique boss, increasing the replay value of an already great formula. The reveal trailer is delicious enough for us to be hooked, but we still hope Supergiant could make some tweaks to make their almost-perfect formula even better.

Supergiant Games continues to hold the gay community in a chokehold with its sexy Greek gods.

The other reason you might be experiencing bodily reactions to the Hades II trailer is the stellar vocal performances of its [voice actors](https://twitter.com/JudyAliceLee/status/1601240423346806785).
