Hit Roguelike Received New Changes and Improvements. Bosses in Hades 2 Are Now More Vulnerable to Attacks From Behind

As a seasoned gamer with countless hours clocked into various titles under my belt, I’ve grown particularly fond of Hades II since its early access release earlier this year. The dedicated work of Supergiant Games in refining and improving the game through regular updates has been nothing short of impressive.


In May, the second version of Hades, developed by Supergiant Games, became available in early access. Since then, the team has been regularly providing updates and paying close attention to fan comments regarding different aspects of the game. Yesterday marked the release of the game’s fourth update for Hades 2’s ongoing development.

As a gamer, I’m excited about the latest update because it not only squashes numerous bugs but also brings significant gameplay enhancements. For instance, some perks now offer altered benefits, akin to Daedalus Hammer upgrades. Plus, early access bosses have been fine-tuned, allowing us players to deal damage more effectively from the backside. Here are some intriguing modifications:

  1. Sister blades now deal more damage to enemies from behind.
  2. One of Hera’s boons was removed in favor of the “Rousing Reception” (dealing damage to opponents at the start of the encounter).
  3. Aiming while using a controller and using Zeus’s Lighting Lance ability is improved. Another boon from this god, namely Spirit Surge, was also reworked.
  4. Incorrect character interactions and the effects of certain abilities on each other have been corrected, along with minor text and sound errors.
  5. Changes have been made to the so-called endgame.

As a long-time fan of the Hades series, I can’t help but get excited about the latest patch for Hades 2. Although it may not have introduced any new content that I can immediately see or interact with, I understand that behind the scenes, this update is laying the groundwork for the game’s first major overhaul. Having played through multiple iterations of Hades, I’ve encountered my fair share of bugs and glitches. So, I wholeheartedly welcome this patch as a necessary step towards improving the overall gaming experience.
