As if sent from Mount Olympus itself, Hades 2 got a massive content update, adding even more stuff to an already incredibly substantial Early Access for the divine roguelite’s sequel.
Without getting into specific spoilers, there’s a new region, new boss fight, a new weapon, new pets, new godly allies with the associated trinkets… There’s a lot to enjoy, so much so that Supergiant released two trailers, one with a summary of what’s new, and one going over the patch notes point by point, read by the game’s narrator. Both are linked below.

If you loved Hades 1 and haven’t yet checked out its sequel, you’re seriously missing out. It puts Zagreus’ sister, Melinoë, in the player character role, and instead of a rebellion against a father figure, it involves a war against Kronos whose forces wreak havoc not just in the Underworld, but also in the surface world. With Melinoë’s family missing and/or imprisoned, she’s got a personal stake in fighting Grandfather Time.
