With the next start of the technical test of Hades 2 the first ones are also starting to arrive gameplay videos on the game, like this long livestream published online that arrived in the last few hours, which allows you to see the new action roguelike in detail with all its features.
In this case, it is an official presentation, published directly by the channel Supergiant.
In fact, the streaming is hosted by the creative director Greg Kasavin and the Studio Director Amir Rao, who decided to better illustrate their new creation with this long film recorded live from a gaming session.
The video focuses on the contents of the upcoming technical test, so it is limited to first area bigger than Hades 2, but still allows you to see a good chunk of the new title in development, with some gameplay and story elements highlighted.
Various elements of the game revealed
The protagonist of the game is Melinoëwho appears to be a daughter of Hades, who seeks to eliminate the forces of Chronos, the resurrected deity, by taking part in various challenges against various creatures and assorted gods.
The visible part of the game takes place in Erebus, which is the place where souls wait to be taken to their rightful place in the afterlife. As in the first chapter, also in Hades 2 the protagonist collects upgrades and new skills as she advances through the levels.
Among the new features emerge divinity like Apollo and Melinoë's fighting style, which is quite different from that seen in the first chapter with Zagreus, and characterized by “omega” moves that can inflict extra damage, but at the cost of magical power and with greater difficulty in execution.
Exiting the levels, the protagonist finds herself in the Crossroads, where she can relax, power up and talk to various characters such as Odysseus and Hypnos. At the end of this technical testing phase, Hades 2 should be launched in early access, in theory for the second quarter of 2024.
