Hades 2 has smashed past the first game's peak player count on Steam, bringing in over double the amount of players in its first weekend.
Hades 2 is already the top-rated game of 2025 in terms of critical reception, so it's no surprise to hear that people are pretty hot on it now that it's finally out as a full release. The original Hades arguably also stands as one of the most beloved indie games ever made, and a sequel that is seemingly even better was pretty much preordained to be a hit. This is supported by an "Overwhelmingly Positive" rating on Steam, with 95% of user reviews being marked as "positive" (in terms of both all-time reviews from the beginning of early access and recent reviews).
