Hades 2 Early Access: Help Shape the Fate of the Underworld!

In a surprising move, Hades 2 is now out on Steam and Epic Games Store as an early-access game. But what about Hades 2 on PS5?

The game had a successful technical test recently, with fans loving it. This showed that the game’s development was going well. Soon after, Supergiant Games decided to release an early access version of Hades 2 on PC.

If you’re a console player, especially on PlayStation, you might be wondering if Hades 2 will come to PS5. The answer is likely yes, especially since the first Hades game eventually came to PS5.

But the big question is when Hades 2 will come to PS5. In this guide, we’ll explain that.

Hades 2 Early Access

A Hades 2 release date for PS5 is expected to be around 2025, possibly after or at the same time as the game’s full version release on PC. Supergiant Games plans to keep Hades 2 in early access until the end of 2024, so version 1.0 might come out in early 2025.

Looking at how Hades 1 was released, the PS5 version might come out a few months after the PC release.

For example, Hades 1 came out for PC and Switch in September 2020, but it didn’t come to PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S until a year later in August 2021. So, if Hades 2 follows a similar pattern, it might not be available on PS5 until late 2025 or early 2026.

However, Supergiant Games has grown a bit since the success of Hades 1. While they’re still a small studio, they’ve gotten better at making these types of games.

Plus, Hades 2 is more popular than ever, with over 100,000 players on its first day of early access. So, Supergiant Games probably wants to release Hades 2 on all platforms at the same time to keep their fans happy.

Because of this, we think the Hades 2 release date for PS5 could be around the same time as the PC release in 2025, or maybe just a few months later.

Will Hades 2 be on PS5, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox Series X?

Supergiant Games plans to release Hades 2 on consoles, PC, and Mac, but they haven’t specified which consoles yet. In a frequently asked questions post on their Discord server, they said, “We expect for Hades 2 to eventually be available for PC, Mac, and console platforms (though cannot confirm which platforms yet).”

Right now, you can only play the early access version of Hades 2 on PC through Steam and the Epic Games Store. It’s not available on consoles like PS5, Xbox Series X, or Nintendo Switch.

Looking at how Hades 1 was released, it started with early access on PC and later came out on PC and Nintendo Switch. Then, it was released for PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, and Xbox One, and even became available on Xbox Game Pass. Hades 1 also came out on iOS through Netflix this year, so it’s pretty much playable on every device.

Considering this, it’s likely that Supergiant will aim to release Hades 2 on PS5, Xbox Series X, and Nintendo Switch eventually.

Since Hades 2 will probably be in early access until 2025, it might also come out on the rumored Nintendo Switch successor and the rumored PS5 Pro. However, it’s unlikely that Hades 2 will come to consoles while it’s still in early access, and console releases haven’t been mentioned in the Hades 2 roadmap so far.
