From all of us at Supergiant Games, we wish you a happy holiday season and all the best in the coming year! Thank you for all your support of our team, and our latest work on Hades II.
The year gone by has been very exciting for our team. In May, we launched our first-ever sequel in Early Access on Steam and the Epic Games Store, an event that proved even bigger than the v1.0 launch of the original game! Since then, we've patched Hades II half a dozen times, including the first of our Major Updates, which brought the game a big step closer to completion. More recently, Hades II earned two nominations in the Steam Awards, in the categories of Best Game on Steam Deck and Outstanding Visual Style! It would really mean a lot to us to have your vote(s).
Our Fifteenth Anniversary!
Back in September, our studio turned 15 years old! From Bastion, to Transistor, to Pyre, to the original Hades, and now to Hades II, all our games have found an audience on a variety of PC and console platforms, and not a day goes by that we're not grateful for it. We even hear from some of you who've been with us from the very start.
In some respects, not too much has changed in all that time... our team remains independent, and all seven of the people who created our first game are still working together in their respective roles, though our team now has close to 25 members in total. We remain staunchly committed to making games that spark your imagination like the games you played as a kid. If you've been playing for a while, then you know good interesting games never go out of style; we want to keep trying to make them for as long as we can.
Our Next Major Update
We're now closing in on the launch of our second Major Update for Hades II, slated for early 2025. At that point you'll get to experience the final confrontation of the game's alternate route! Beyond that, we're planning for at least one more Major Update in Early Access sometime this coming year, which will expand on various parts of the game including the story. But the story's true ending will only arrive with the v1.0 launch, which we still don't have a date for yet... it'll depend on how our Major Updates go!
With all this on our minds, we're filled with gratitude and excitement as we head into the new year, and we hope you'll join us in the next one. Until then, may moonlight guide you out there!
