Hades 2 is set to launch on Nintendo Switch and the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 as a timed console exclusive. While an exact release date has yet to be announced, developer Supergiant has confirmed that the much-awaited sequel will be available on PC, Nintendo Switch 2, and the original Nintendo Switch simultaneously later this year.
The announcement that Hades 2 would be coming to the enhanced Nintendo Switch 2 was initially shared during last week's Nintendo Direct. However, Supergiant Games has since clarified that the game will not only be available on both Switch models but will also enjoy a period of exclusivity on Nintendo's consoles.
"Hades II v1.0 will launch simultaneously on our Early Access platforms (Steam and Epic Games Store), Nintendo Switch 2, and the original Nintendo Switch," the team stated on X/Twitter.

It remains uncertain when Hades 2 will be released on other consoles such as the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S.
Hades 2, the sequel to Supergiant's acclaimed first game, combines captivating storytelling with roguelite action in a thrilling dungeon-crawling experience.In IGN's Hades 2 early-access review, we praised the game, awarding it a 9/10 and noting, "Hades 2 feels impossibly huge and unbelievably polished by any standard, much less an early access game. Mel is awesome, the new tweaks to the combat and progression are excellent, and it's just unbelievably feature packed with twice the content of the first game. What’s here right out of the gate is astounding, and the thought of more coming on the way is a tantalizing treat."
