Hades 2 developer Supergiant Games understands it's hard to move on. You were always going to miss some of the roguelike's Early Access features, though you should try not to dwell on it. Creative director Greg Kasavin assures players that some of those "missing" Boons are still present in the game's final version – they're just different. Thus is the nature of Early Access. Kasavin explains that Supergiant "iterated on all sorts of different content all through Early Access, based on a combination of our impressions and goals for the game" – a need to allow "some truly powerful abilities and combinations that can sometimes lead to memorable, breakthrough runs where you sail to victory." But not always. "We've learned to love and trust the process": How Hades 2 built on Supergiant's Early Access legacy to deliver the best roguelike of 2025 "The game is the design document": Hades 2 devs don't have "long, elaborate" plans that "lay out the future of the things we're making" because Supergiant is "a heavily iterative studio" As Hades 2 hits 1.0, roguelike powerhouse Supergiant says it's about to "return to shadows for a while and plan our next move" "At Supergiant I think we've learned to love and trust the process of getting to our end result," Kasavin says. "Sometimes interesting Boon ideas or good lines of dialogue and so on end up getting iterated on, but we think it's important not to be too precious about these things when they exist in service of a cohesive whole."
