Supergiant Games Announces Hades, Available Now In Early Access On The Epic Games Store

Bastion, Transistor, and Pyre developer Supergiant Games revealed a new game tonight, Hades, at The Game Awards. Not only was it a complete surprise, but Hades is also available right now on the newly opened Epic Games Store.

Hades looks like a real-time action game where the player character will likely die, a lot, and form an ongoing relationship with Hades himself.

If you want to try the game yourself, it's available right now for $20 on the Epic Games Store. Though we only learned a little from the trailer, the description on the store page says: "Defy the god of death as you hack and slash your way out of the Underworld in this rogue-like dungeon crawler from the creators of Bastion and Transistor."

The Game Awards is giving us plenty of new announcements, with Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3--exclusive to the Switch--a console version of Stanley Parable, and much more. You can stay up to date with it all in our The Game Awards new roundup.
