Hades 2 Early Access Might Be Coming Sooner Than You Think

Supergiant Games has hinted that Hades II might be hitting early access sooner than we may have though. The developer also said that the technical test will start to wind down on April 29.

Once the the technical test is over, it will no longer be available to access through Steam libraries. it's not all bad news, though. "However, we plan to launch Hades II Early Access relatively soon after, so please stay tuned," Supergiant Games said in an updated Steam post. "We hope you share our excitement for Early Access, and really appreciate your support and encouragement during the Test!"

Thank you for your patience during the Hades II Technical Test, which helped us identify and address a number of key issues we weren't able to find before.🌒

It's unclear what "relatively soon" means to the developer. It could be as early as next week or a few months down the line. However, it seems like we won't have to wait too long.

Lots of lore and info about Hades II have already been chronicled through those playing the technical test. For example, we may already know who the unnamed narrator is. We've also got a list of confirmed gods and characters who will appear in the game.

Hades II will launch into Early Access sometime this year for PC. In GameSpot's Hades II technical test preview, we said, "Supergiant Games' Hades 2 technical test offers a fascinating glimpse at how the sequel is building on the success of the first game."
