Supergiant’s Hades II lands on Switch as the follow-up in the studio’s action roguelike line-up, going head-to-head with other fast, repeat-run dungeon crawlers thanks to its tight combat loop and story that keeps moving even when you fail a run. You play as Melinoë, trading Zagreus’ brawling style for darker magic and a different rhythm in fights, with the same focus on learning enemy patterns, building a run on the fly, then trying again with new tools and dialogue.
Who is this for?
If you liked the first Hades for its snappy dodges, punchy weapons and constant character banter, this keeps that momentum while pushing you into more spell-driven play. It suits short sessions in handheld, but the run structure also works for longer sittings when you want to chase upgrades and story beats.
- Roguelike runs: each attempt reshuffles rooms and rewards, so progress comes from both upgrades and player skill.
- Dark sorcery focus: magic-centric options change how you approach bosses and crowd control.
- Switch and Switch 2 support: a natural fit for quick runs on the go.
