Likely due to the reveal of HADES II, the game HADES and its soundtrack are both currently on big sale! Which makes this an EXCELLENT time to pick it up, if you haven't got em!

(Their other games are not on sale atm but it's likely they will for the holidays— keep your eyes peeled!)

In the interest of compiling for everyone who doesn't have the time and energy to search— all currently known details about HADES II ive managed to absorb, taken from the HADES II faq on the supergiant site (x) as well as the trailer (x)

The protagonist is "Melinoë, the Princess of the Underworld". She is Zagreus' sister, based on another Underworld deity said to be associated with Hades, and she is a witch and sorceress

The shadowed/robed figure that seems to be training her is confirmed to be Hecate via the VA credits in the trailer description— FAQ confirms she will be a central figure as well, as she is a deeply significant figure in many myths and especially pertaining to magic

This game follows the practice of witchcraft, as it is integral to many Greek myths and tales. Their aim is, as with HADES, to be faithful to the sources which inspired them

HADES II is directly confirmed to be a sequel by the FAQ— "[it will be] set in and around the Underworld of Greek myth after the events of the original game."

Their foe seems to be Chronos, the Titan of Time

Though subject to change, according to the list of boons shown in the trailer there seems to be a "sprint" ability and "casts", as well as "magick" (use Magick to fuel casts, perhaps?)

Other confirmed new characters and the titles listed in their dialogue from the trailer:

Moros, Doom Incarnate ("This is an opportunity for you... To make a better future for us all.")

Apollo, God of Light ("Least I can do is light your way down!")

Nemesis, Retribution Incarnate ("About ready to give in?") [Note: melinoë responds with "No. I was born for this."]

Dora, Listless Shade ("You trifle with powers far beyond your comprehension, witch." "...OK if I call you witch like that?")

It seems to be Hecate with the voiceover near the end who says, "Vengeance for your family awaits you."

Hades' words at the end: "He is no mere titan. He is time itself. And time cannot be stopped."

HADES II has been in development bt SGG since early 2021. The early access is not set to be unveiled until sometime in 2023

A plot hook and a large reel of story line. These can be used to actually catch "the one that got away."

A credit card from Master.. well, you know. Whoever picks it up will find their name inscribed on it. The card has no limit and no one will ever come to collect. If the card is ever heated, these fiery words will appear on the magnetic strip. "One card to rule them all, one card to buy them, one card to seek them all, and in the darkness, bribe them."

A paperback book titled "Spellcasting for the Speech-Impaired." It details ways to cast spells without any spoken incantations, using hand gestures and body movement. As the spells become more complex, so do the movements - it would take a trained dancer to perform the most powerful ones. One section in particular catches your eye. The motions for summoning vast unearthly demons resemble certain dance steps. You recognize the Macarena and the Electric Slide.
