Hades 2 enthusiasts have a reason to rejoice as developer Supergiant Games unveils plans for a 'technical test' phase, offering eager gamers the chance to get an early taste of the upcoming title. This preliminary testing period not only aims to address any glitches but also grants a select few the opportunity to dive into Hades 2 prior to its Early Access launch.

The highly anticipated Hades 2 was first revealed at The Game Awards in 2022, capturing the attention of indie game enthusiasts worldwide. Following the tremendous success of its predecessor, which sold over a million copies, the sequel holds significant promise.

Supergiant Games has extended an exclusive invitation to Hades aficionados to take part in the technical test for Hades 2, designed to identify and rectify any issues before the Early Access phase. To join, fans must visit the game's official Steam page and request access. Those fortunate enough to be selected will receive access via email, although only a limited number of players will be chosen due to the brief testing period. Participants are encouraged to provide feedback to the developers, reporting any crashes or technical concerns encountered.

How to Apply for Early Access to Hades 2?

• Interested players can navigate to the official Steam page of the game and select 'Request Access'.
• A select group of applicants will receive detailed instructions via email on how to proceed with early access to Hades 2.

According to Supergiant Games, the technical test for Hades 2 will only grant access to a limited portion of the game's content, focusing on the initial major area. Should players successfully navigate this section multiple times, the game will subtly suggest concluding gameplay, signaling the imminent arrival of Hades 2's Early Access.

This unique opportunity to preview Hades 2 ahead of the crowd showcases returning characters like Zeus and introduces new faces such as Hecate and Melinoe. While maintaining the beloved gameplay loop of its forerunner, the sequel promises fresh mechanics and innovative concepts.

Although the official release date for Hades 2 remains undisclosed, developers have shared insights indicating that the technical test duration may vary from 'longer than a week' to 'shorter than a month', preceding the Early Access debut of Hades 2.
