Following some previews in April, the highly anticipated roguelike Hades 2 has now got an early access launch.
Unfortunately, it's only for PC right now, but it could be a sign that an update about the Xbox version of Hades 2 is nearby. Supergiant's official website notes how the title is expected to be in "early access at least through to the end of 2024" and after this, it should eventually be made available on consoles.
However, the developer can't actually confirm which console platforms the game will be released on just yet.
"We do not have a release date set for the completed Hades II v1.0, and expect to be in Early Access at least through the end of 2024. We expect for Hades II to eventually be available for PC, Mac, and console platforms (though cannot confirm which platforms yet)."
According to the Steam reviews so far, the sequel to Hades has had an "overwhelmingly positive" reception. Critics also seem to be quite impressed.

Played on pc last night and it’s glorious, as is the first one. Feels like they’ve added so much and made it its own game with new systems and mechanics. Super pumped for more.
@Kramlar I can't wait for this game on xbox, you just made the wait even worse!
I think that the first one was such a hit because it was simple and fun. Intuitive, even. That made the repetitive gameplay typical of this genre more attractive. I don't like the genre, but I liked Hades. It plays like a charm on Series X. I wonder if the sequel is more complicated.
