This is the best summary I could come up with:
If you're a game developer I hope you weren't planning to launch soon, as Hades II just sneakily dropped into Early Access on Steam.
Hades II is a rogue-like dungeon crawler in which you'll battle beyond the Underworld of Greek myth using dark sorcery to take on the sinister Titan of Time.
It builds on the best aspects of the award-winning original in an all-new, action-packed, endlessly replayable experience rooted in Greek myth and its deep connections to the dawn of witchcraft.
Even though it's in Early Access it still has more content than the first game including "more environments, foes, and fully-voiced characters" but "key areas, characters, foes, narrative events, and systems are still to come".
I'm currently finally playing through Telltale's The Walking Dead, so I'll put it on my list for after…
Really nice to see it got Steam Deck testing so early-on too, that's a good sign.
The original article contains 224 words, the summary contains 151 words. Saved 33%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
What was sneaky about it? They had a technical test recently, and announced Early Access would be coming soon as they were shutting down the test period.
