The roguelite hit in early access has received a major boost with the Warsong update.
Since May last year, roguelite connoisseurs have been able to play their fingers to the bone in Hades 2. The sequel, which is currently still in early access, expands on the repertoire of the first part and has so far been met with a lot of approval from players.
A few months after the first major patch, Hades 2 received another major update, the Warsong Update And the community loves it.
The third spring of Hades 2
When Hades 2 entered Early Access on Steam, it reached dizzying numbers of more than 100,000 concurrent players. As expected, this value stagnated over time, but with each update it was able to climb a little bit higher again.
The Warsong update caused the number of players to rise to almost 17,000, a development similar to that seen after the last update in October 2024. Much more important than the bare numbers, however, is the concrete response from the community.
In the corresponding subreddit , a player talks about how the update finally introduced him to Hades 2.
The new update finally got me. I ventured into Early Access and my God, this game is awesome. Everything feels really smooth with minor glitches, and the Siren hymn is STRONG.

And in the community hub on Steam, players are also thanking the team at Supergiant Games for their hard work.
