Patch 048: The v1.0 LAUNCH Update
At long last, our v1.0 Launch has arrived!! The true ending awaits, along with much, much more. This marks the conclusion of our development in Early Access, though we will be monitoring this launch closely and patching any issues that arise. To all of you who joined us during development, thank you!
Highlights
+ The True Ending: discover what awaits Prince Zagreus at the end of his journey
+ New Hidden Aspect: harness the unsurpassed fury of the Twin Fists in the aspect of an ancient god-king

+ New Late-Game Unlockables: assert your status with new decorative themes and prestigious badges
+ New Keepsakes: get not one but two powerful, new Keepsakes⊠but from whom?
+ New Music: listen for five stunning new tracks, rounding out 2.5 hours of original music

Achievements
+ Added nearly 50 Achievements! Note: You may earn certain Achievements once you load your game, based on past progress. Fear not, it isnât possible to have played past the point where you can unlock any Achievement. Ones not awarded retroactively should be reasonable to earn (e.g. clearing Tartarus).

Hades is the best game ever
early, lets go
pretty much anti climactic.
Video look great! đđđ
I've been playing about 3 months, beat Hades on attempt 17 and have been loving it ever since
Put it off the last week or two not wanting to do everything til launch, and I'm so pumped
Didn't mind starting a new save at all
But I'm getting my Eris aspect rail ASAP hahah
So stoked to see the real ending where you don't have to pretend you lost to Hades haha
Love your videos man, all your tier lists really helped me get a handle on everything
I've done the Demeter's Aid Pom build once, it just kinda got out of hand. I think it ended up like lvl 14 and Paul I gotta tell you I half healthed second phase hades with it, maybe more.
This was such a great surprise. Threw my arms in the air when I beat the final boss.
Got the barge of death with middle management, itâs essentially the big doomstone in Tartarus but now itâs a big stone that can make enemies invulnerable, made short work of it with breaching knuckle and Demeter doom fists though
Optional boss?
Just started a new game to replay the lot.
ok, so they changed little to nothing on the god who needed a whole rework, ares. great, just great
I just started playing a few weeks ago and was pretty excited for the release. I imagine you must have been chomping at the bit! Thanks for the content and breakdowns. I was curious if you plan on updating or doing new guides now that everything is pretty much all said and done? Cheers
We are ahead of the bandwagon boys. Here's to Dionysus and the HADES crew. Cheers! This game is amazing and I hope more people discover it, because the community has been wonderful as well.
