Hades is a god-like rogue-like dungeon crawler that combines the best aspects of Supergiant's critically acclaimed titles, including the fast-paced action of Bastion, the rich atmosphere and depth of Transistor, and the character-driven storytelling of Pyre.
As the immortal Prince of the Underworld, you'll wield the powers and mythic weapons of Olympus to break free from the clutches of the god of the dead himself, while growing stronger and unraveling more of the story with each unique escape attempt. The Olympians have your back! Meet Zeus, Athena, Poseidon, and many more, and choose from their dozens of powerful Boons that enhance your abilities.
Key Features:
- Battle Out of Hell: Experience fast-paced, responsive combat combined with deep roguelike systems. Become stronger with each run as you learn enemy patterns and discover powerful Boon combinations.
- Unleash the Fury of Olympus: The gods of Olympus offer you powerful Boons. Choose wisely to create thousands of viable character builds on your path to freedom.
- Befriend Gods, Ghosts, and Monsters: A fully-voiced cast of colourful, larger-than-life characters awaits! Grow your relationships with them, and experience thousands of unique story events as you learn about what's really at stake for this big, dysfunctional family.
- High Replayability: New surprises await each time you delve into the ever-shifting Underworld, whose guardian bosses will remember you. Use the powerful Mirror of Night to grow permanently stronger, and give yourself a leg up the next time you run away from home.
- Signature Supergiant Style: The rich, atmospheric presentation and unique melding of gameplay and narrative that's been core to Supergiant's games is here in full force: spectacular hand-painted environments and a blood-pumping original score bring the Underworld to life.
