The full statement has been added further down this article. The voice behind Athena in both the original Hades and its sequel Hades 2, Marin Miller, has shared a post on their personal BlueSky account claiming that they may be recast in a "particular game that is very popular." According to Miller, if a recast does take place, it isn't because they "stepped away from the character willingly. It's because the employer refused to flip to an interim." In a follow-up post, the voice actor wrote that "it would be SUPER helpful if you wrote a GIANT email asking them to flip for their actors." Read the rest of the story...

We'll need to wait until it's totally finished before judging it against its exquisite, genre-leading predecessor, but Supergiant appears to be doing everything right so far. A brand new major update - the second of Hades 2's life so far - has just arrived, and not only does it flesh out, rework, and improve many key systems, it also adds in a final encounter for the surface route that sees you reach the top of Mount Olympus. However, despite the huge amount of content being added, Supergiant says it's still not confident enough to talk about 1.0 plans for Hades 2 just yet. Read the rest of the story...

Thank you for all your support of our team, and our latest work on Hades II. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43315153/4d3af53e30e1009b26fada29c650b68f0c918a2e.jpg The year gone by has been very exciting for our team. In May, we launched our first-ever sequel in Early Access here on Steam, an event that proved even bigger than the v1.0 launch of the original game! Since then, we've patched Hades II half a dozen times, including the first of our Major Updates, which brought the game a big step closer to completion. More recently, Hades II earned two nominations in the Steam Awards, in the categories of Best Game on Steam Deck and Outstanding Visual Style! It would really mean a lot to us to have your vote(s). Our Fifteenth Anniversary! Back in September, our studio turned 15 years old! From Bastion, to Transistor, to Pyre, to the original Hades, and now to Hades II, all our games have found an audience here on Steam, and not a day goes by that we're not grateful for it. We even hear from some of you who've been with us from the very start. In some respects, not too much has changed in all that time... our team remains independent, and all seven of the people who created our first game are still working together in their respective roles, though our team now has close to 25 members in total. We remain staunchly committed to making games that spark your imagination like the games you played as a kid. If you've been playing on Steam for a while, then you know good interesting games never go out of style; we want to keep trying to make them for as long as we can. Our Next Major Update We're now closing in on the launch of our second Major Update for Hades II, slated for early 2025. At that point you'll get to experience the final confrontation of the game's alternate route! Beyond that, we're planning for at least one more Major Update in Early Access sometime this coming year, which will expand on various parts of the game including the story. But the story's true ending will only arrive with the v1.0 launch, which we still don't have a date for yet... it'll depend on how our Major Updates go! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43315153/586be8a79187a36aa24ff36651a7c079b83e2acf.jpg Happy New Year!
