Aside from some notable exceptions like Rogue Legacy 2 and Spelunky 2, not many roguelikes ever get a direct sequel, so there’s a lot of mystery surrounding how Hades 2 will be different from the first game. But there’s no need to dive into the depths of the Underworld yourself in search of answers, as we’ve pulled all the information we could from the jaws of Cerberus. Shortly thereafter, a cabin is built for his children in Camp Half-Blood.

With Percy and Annabeth trapped in Tartarus, the remaining demigods plan on flying to the House of Hades aboard the Argo II and defeat the forces of Gaea to save Annabeth and Percy. Hades' bitterness does begin to change after the events in The Last Olympian, however, as he was accepted because he helped save Olympus. Though it should be noted that he still greatly disliked Percy for this and was quick to blame him for taking his helm of darkness despite not having any evidence.

The mortal side of the Doors of Death was located here under Gaea's control, until Hazel Levesque returned ownership of the Doors to Thanatos. In Cancun, Africa, Jason has had daily audiences with Auster, the Roman god of the south wind, in connection with the Seven being able to proceed on their way to Epirus. Auster is naturally capricious and indolent but yet seems increasingly disinclined to cooperate with Jason. Meanwhile, Jason has been thinking that he misses Camp Half-Blood and that he never really fit in at the more formal, traditional, even hidebound Camp Jupiter, and that he may have been changed irrevocably by his time at Camp Half-Blood. When Auster finally agrees to meet with him, he indicates that Jason is not committed to one course, Greek or Roman, personally; Jason's heart now lies with Camp Half-Blood, and Auster forces him to commit to it.
Gods on the surface
Hades is apologetic about his girlfriends with Persephone, but she is still very displeased when they are mentioned. He has the fewest demigod children of the Big Three, not even having any mentioned in the old myths, due to his strong (for a god) devotion to his wife. Hades' marriage to her also means, ironically, that his elder sister Demeter is his mother-in-law, and his youngest brother Zeus is his father-in-law. Shortly after their return from Tartarus, Hades and his siblings officially declared war on Kronos and the other Titans, which resulted in the grueling 11-year-long Titanomachy. The Titans initially had the upper hand in their battles, since they were much more experienced warriors.
Hecate, Arachne, and the Kerkopes
Both demigods were promptly sent to Westover Hall, a military school in Maine. The famous demigod musician Orpheus, devastated by the untimely death of his wife Eurydice, creates a new entrance to the Underworld with his beautiful music and singing. He made his way all the way to Hades' palace, with ghosts, Charon, Cerberus, and even the furies themselves being brought to tears by his ineffably lachrymose and beautiful music.

The Blood of Olympus
Just like Zagreus’ never-ending quest to escape the Underworld in Greek mythology, it seems we too are destined to continue fighting through new levels of demons and monsters in the sequel to the amazing roguelike Hades. We’re not complaining, as that game was one of the best games released in 2020, and no one expected a sequel at all, let alone one announced so soon. Hades 2 will be the first sequel studio Supergiant Games have ever made, and it makes sense given how successful and popular the first game ended up being.
He was often called Zeus with the addition of a special title (e.g., chthonios, “chthonian Zeus”). His title Pluto or Pluton (“Wealth”) may have originated through Hades’ partial amalgamation with a god of the earth’s fertility or because he gathered all living things into his treasury at death.
The first area is called Erebus, the forested region we’ve seen before, where Apollo is shown off as one of the new gods with a new set of boons to pick from. Other new gods will be Hestia, Goddess of Flame, and Selene, Goddess of the Moon. Other returning and new characters we spotted were Dora, Nemesis, Odysseus, Hypnos, Demeter, Poseidon, Aphrodite, Zeus, and Artemis. The trailer shows off a bit of gameplay that looks quite similar to that of the first game. The perspective and basic flow of clearing rooms, choosing between boons given by different gods, and unleashing special attacks all look to be returning. It also goes without saying that you will be repeating many, many runs with randomly generated rooms and enemies.
Then he will make up with Percy accepting the fact that hes just an older brother or something. Then he'll go somewhere to heal his broken heart while doing some important godly job. The paperback version of the book contains the crossover short story The Crown of Ptolemy and a short story from The Demigod Files, The Sword of Hades.
Zeus took pity on his daughter, and to prevent her soul from going to Hades, Zeus transformed Thalia into a pine tree, just as Halcyon Green had predicted to her. As he had promised Hades, Hercules escorted Cerberus all the way back to the Underworld. In retaliation however, Hades appeared before King Eurystheus while Hercules was dragging Cerberus back. The furious Lord of the Dead demanded to know why King Eurystheus had dared to send someone into his realm to take his beloved pet as a trophy. Eurystheus collapsed in fear and begged Hades to spare him, revealing to Hades that he received orders for all of Hercules' labors from Hera herself who was trying to send Hercules to his death.
Although he was the one to make a compromise with Demeter, he was indeed the one to initially trick Persephone into staying in the Underworld (though he did it because he was deeply in love and searching for a wife). Hades also carries grudges for an extremely long time, a trait he passes onto all of his children. His cruel traits mirror that of his father Kronos in terms of cunning, ruthlessness, and deviousness. Hades, however is not evil like his father, but rather distant and bitter due to past tragedies which leads him to behave the way he does, though Hades does his best not to show it.
They reappear on a hillside outside the temple, with the Argo II hovering overhead, as they left it. She is without Scipio, who she was forced to euthanize after he collapsed immediately upon landing on the deck; he had been mortally wounded in an attack by a gryphon the night before. Nemesis is a tall, broad, and powerful warrior dressed in a suit of armor with red accents and a nest of long, black hair. Her weapon of choice is a sword, and she also holds a shield inscribed with Runes on her left arm.
Near the end of the book, Nico discovers that he is a son of Hades and proceeds to run away from Camp-Half Blood. For Hercules' last labor, he was ordered by King Eurystheus to bring back Hades' mighty and ferocious pet dog Cerberus as proof of his strength and fearlessness. In the aftermath of the battle, the Elder Cyclopes chained up all of the defeated Titans, while the Hekatonkheires forced them to kneel before Hades, Zeus, and Poseidon.
Bob then killed all of the arai, healed Annabeth, and took Percy to be healed. Hecate's left arm is also of interest and is covered completely by a metallic glove that reaches above the elbow, ending somewhere under her cape. It is unclear whether this is just a fashion choice or whether it is somehow connected to Melinoë's glowing left arm.
Hazel uses the Mist to trick Sciron into kicking Hazel inland instead of off the cliff. She then subsequently tricks Sciron into being kicked off the cliff and gobbled up by the turtle himself. Pluto then appears to her and tells her that the Doors of Death are at the lowest level of the Necromanteion, the temple/house of Hades in Epirus where they are going, and will be guarded by Pasiphaë, a Cretan sorceress who was the wife of Minos and mother of the Minotaur. Melinoë is a small and slim witch with the power to wield both magic and weapons. She has a blonde bob adorned with a crescent moon and orange leaved wreath. She also has heterochromia, much like her brother's, which causes her eyes to be of different colors.
His entire look makes him seem a bit more regal and godlike than in Hades. The Silver Lake is where you will unlock new weapons, while the Cauldron introduces a crafting system. These let you do things like add new weapons to the Silver Lake and bring more characters into your hub. Supergiant released a massive three-hour-long stream of the game in its early technical test stage. In it, they walk us through seven different runs of the game to show it off for everyone who isn’t lucky enough to be selected to play in the test. Melinoe is on a quest to free her father Zeus from the Titan of Time, Chronos.
