Supergiant Games' Hades II has unleashed its second major content drop, The Warsong Update. This significant patch introduces the formidable god of war, Ares, adding his unique boons and a thrilling new dimension to gameplay.
Ares and Beyond:
The update isn't just about Ares; it also features a new animal companion, challenging new enemies, a visually enhanced Altar of Ashes with fresh Arcana effects, and over 2,000 new voice lines enriching the narrative experience. Players can also unwind in the Crossroads, enjoying new music and even a duet with Artemis. Melinoë's journey continues with the addition of the "Final Confrontation" beyond the Guardian of Olympus.
Looking Ahead to Update 3:
While the Warsong Update is fresh, Supergiant Games is already looking towards the third major update, slated for release in several months. While a v1.0 launch date remains unannounced, the developers confirm the core structure of the Underworld and Surface routes is complete, with the focus shifting to expanding existing content. Post-Warsong patch releases will prioritize:
- Hidden Aspects: Unlocking the full potential of the Nocturnal Arms.

- Expanded Story: Further developing Melinoë's narrative and enriching character relationships.
Supergiant Games expressed gratitude to players, emphasizing their crucial role in shaping Hades II's development towards a highly replayable and enriching experience. The Warsong Update is available now as a free download on Steam for Hades II owners.
