Supergiant Begs Fans to Stop Datamining Hades 2 Before Release

Apr 21, 2024 11:30 AM

Supergiant Games recently addressed the issue of datamining during the technical test phase of their highly anticipated title, Hades 2. The game, which is yet to be released in early access, is already creating buzz as players have managed to extract and share details about the game's content prematurely. Supergiant has taken a gentle approach by requesting gamers to refrain from disclosing any datamined information. They have confirmed that the inclusion of such content was an oversight and have asked fans to wait for the official early access release to experience the game fully. As of now, Hades 2 is slated for a PC-exclusive early access release sometime this year.

When can we expect Hades 2 to enter early access and will it be available on platforms other than PC?

Hades 2 is expected to launch in early access within this year, and it will initially be available exclusively on PC. There have been no official announcements regarding its availability on other platforms at this time.

Background information on Hades 2: This game is a sequel to the critically acclaimed Hades, which is known for its engaging roguelike mechanics and rich storytelling. The original game was developed by Supergiant Games, the creators behind Bastion, Transistor, and Pyre. Hades was celebrated for its dynamic action, deep character progression, and for breathing fresh life into the roguelike genre. Its successor is highly anticipated, aiming to expand on the mythological universe and gameplay experience beloved by fans.

It's understandable that Supergiant Games would want to preserve the excitement and surprise for players eagerly anticipating Hades 2. I'm looking forward to diving into the game's rich storytelling and dynamic action when it enters early access later this year, even though it's initially slated for PC.

Hades 2's early access release is definitely something to look forward to this year, especially considering the unexpected hype surrounding the game due to datamining. It'll be exciting to see how Supergiant Games expands on the success of the original Hades, and I'm curious to find out if the game will eventually make its way to other platforms beyond PC.
