Hades II entered early access on PC (Steam and Epic Games Store) on May 6, 2024, followed by a macOS release on October 16, 2024, including a substantial content update. A further update arrived on February 19, 2025. Console players will need to wait for the full release. Supergiant Games will use feedback from this extended early access period to finalize the game.

Considering the February 2025 update and the time needed for feedback analysis and implementation, a full launch could occur as early as Q2 2025 (April-June). An April release seems unlikely, leaving May 2025 as a more realistic timeframe—marking a year since early access began.

Even in its unfinished state, Hades II’s early access demonstrates a strong sequel, exceeding expectations. A 2025 release is widely anticipated; the exact date hinges on Supergiant Games' development and polishing schedule. An official announcement is expected soon.

Development commenced in early 2021, with the return of most of the original game's team and voice actors. Supergiant Games has remained relatively quiet regarding the full release date, preferring to let the early access experience speak for itself. The most significant press engagement occurred around the technical test and initial early access launch in April/May 2024, with the team subsequently focusing on development.

During May 2024 interviews (e.g., with Game Informer), Supergiant hinted at preserving the original game's core elements while introducing fresh characters and features, including protagonist Melinoë. Fans eagerly await the full release to experience this next chapter in the Hades saga.
