Ok, so the big pointy hatted witch teacher is probably Hecate, a underworld goddess of magic and witchcraft who mainly serves Hades. And the Main Character is probably referring to Hades as 'father' so she is either Hades' daughter Melinoë or Macaria. I'm guessing Melinoë since there is more information on her and she has actual myths surrounding her. Melinoë is also associated with Hecate and have the same epithet 'krokopeplos' which means 'clad in saffron', this title is also associated with the moon, which was pretty front and center in the opening animation. Edit:Huh, 1k likes...neat I guess.
It’s really weird for SuperGiant because, up until now, they don’t do sequels. Every game in the past has been totally unique. What excites me about this is that they will have some things quite different in order to set it apart from Hades.
Haha same i started two weeks ago and was wondering why i havent picked it up sooner because i fell in love instantly. So crazy that there will be a sequel. Excited to see which Gods they will include now
As someone who is literally playing Hades up to 15 minutes ago and was looking at special interactions with Nyx about an hour ago... THIS IS WONDERFUL NEWS!!!
@@kte4423 I did and found nothing😭 It's one that plays between Zag and Nyx is you don't speak to her in you first few runs, but I didn't know how many runs
@@slagothor48 I played this a very long time ago but from what I remember, my gripes with the game was that it felt like most weapons weren't viable unless you got really lucky with specific blessings. On the note of blessings, most of them were also really bad unless you got the correct synergy.
i'm really intrigued by the differences between zagreus and melinoe. their designs are pretty opposite, if still thematically similar, but also it seems like the plot beats of their stories are opposites too. zagreus was looking for his mom, melinoe is looking for her dad, zagreus was trying to escape, it sounds like melinoe might be starting aboveground and working her way down? in hades I a recurring theme in character relationships was trying again/moving on from past mistakes and actions/etc while melinoe is apparently trying to get vengeance on cronos? it makes me feel like we already know loads about the new game just from contrasting it with its predecessor. I wonder if this contrast will continue as we learn more
Still playing Hades to this day with almost 300 hours clocked in and this is the best thing I've seen all day You have no idea how terrifyingly excited I am for this game to release
I was not expecting a sequel but I’m all for it. Absolutely loved the first one and will definitely play this one. Wonder if Zagreus would appear? Like maybe as a Companion summon like in the first game if you interact with him enough.
after 4 years and almost 3 thousand hours put in on hades, i can safely say this will be the very FIRST game i ever pre order. ever. im so unbelievably excited
Just yesterday I looked up Supergiant's other games and asked Google if there would be a Hades 2. This is completely insane to get a pretty certain "no," then for them to drop this the next day!! I'm so excited for this!
THIS LOOKS SO COOL IM SO EXCITED. based on the kronos thing and how she's getting boons from gods that aren't the twelve olympians, my guess for the plot is that the titans have overthrown the olympians and that's why hades is chained up and she says she's coming for him. i know apollo is there but like. idk im just brainstorming
Not all Olympus, surely, since Apollo is still kicking about and comfortable enough to give melinoe boons, but hades is imprisoned, and Apollo says she needs to 'light your way down', which implies breaking into the underworld instead of out. That means the house has definitely fallen
@@marwansobhy7050 ooh yeah that occurred to me later!! since the moon and trees and stuff is in the trailer she's probably on the surface. this game is going to be so cool im so excited
@@marwansobhy7050 ooh yeah that occurred to me later!! since the moon and trees and stuff is in the trailer she's probably on the surface. this game is going to be so cool im so excited
I just can't believe it! I don't know how to thank you for this great news, I'm a big fan of your games, Hades is for me one of the best games I've ever played and discovering this now is just extraordinary I didn't expect it at all. I love Greek mythology and this game is for me the most accomplished and the most successful of all. thank you so much Supergiant Games ❤️ Happy that Hades is becoming a full-fledged license
Oh my God No!! I was just telling an acquaintance of mine how Hades was pure crack cocaine that needed to be avoided at all costs. I was way too addicted to that game and now you announce a sequel to drag me back in!?
The sheer amount of moon motifs and witch references guarantees the mentor is Hekate. Plus Melinoe is sometimes thought to be an Orphic pseudonym for Hekate. Dang I’m so hype!!!
Holy moly I just platinumed Hades on the PS5 last night and said I really hope they make a sequel lo and behold a sequel announced today! I am really looking forward to this game
I thought they said they would not make a sequel as their next game in an interview. Very consistent studio I think they will deliver and expand upon the gameplay
Didn’t see a sequel coming at all but man am I welcome to it! Absolutely LOVED Hades, played the ever living hell out of that game. Expect to do the same with this game
Super excited for it. I just recently picked up Hades but have already sank over 20 hours in it. Along with Deadcells it is probably the best Rogue-like game of the last 10 years.
After Hades patched things up with Persephone and Zagreus, Hades decides having another child won't be so bad. Unfortunately Hades then gets kidnapped, Zagreus disappears, and Melinoe has to be taken out of the Underworld for her own safety where Hecate raises her so she has the strength to save her family.
OMG Even if I haven't even finished the first game I'm so freaking excited for this!!!! Hades and Persephone are of my favorites everything in Greek Mythology, and having games dedicated to them and their family is beyond incredible to me. Having one of Hades and Persephone's daughters as the new protagonist is excellent, and Cronos as the one to beat with Hades being prisoner? I just can't with the genius of this sequel!!! Also the designs on characters is as always fantastic👏👏👏👏👏👏
How far are you on the game. I haven't played it in months but I will gladly go back in I'm on my 5th escape going for number 6 today. I'll definitely get all 10 escapes before this drops
I wonder if we will meet Zag in this, maybe even as a god we can get boons from related to life/blood, or more likely as a character only referenced in dialogue and lore. Or perhaps this is a prequel so Zag is yet to be born
Some way for sure, MC is his sister and Hades seems to be locked up. (Maybe instead of escaping and fighting Hades we’re now trying to rescue Hades and have to fight Kronos?.)
@@CrownofMischief I believe that Zagreus is the first born, but if not then that's not something that would surprise me, since Hades and Nyx already lied about Persephone in the past. Though they had a good reason. Basically, it's most likely Zag is eldest, but I don't 100% believe that yet
Oh now this gets me very very stoked. More Olympians: check! More Nyx kids: check! Relatively obscure child of Hades protagonist: check! Visuals and music just as promising as last time: check! Just one point of contention... Aargh, Kronos is not Chronos you guys! Edit: and more Chthonic big stonking deals like Mommy Hecate
It's probably Hades himself. Melinoe is the daughter of Hades, and probably the sister of Zag. My guess is that it is set long after Hades 1. I think it'll be something like Kronos and the Titans got loose, and have overthrown the Olympians. She was probably born after Zag's adventures in Hades 1 ? Dunno.

CONFIRMED. VOICE ACTING CREDITS ON THE SUPERGIANT GAMES CHANNEL. IT'S IN THE DESCRIPTION OF THE VIDEO.
There's a steam page up with more info. MC is Melinoe.
Okay. Nerd. *writes it all down*
Not all heroes wear capes: some put RUclips comments with Greek lore.
Ah, so Zagreus's sister then, I thought she was his daughter at first
I did not expect the next Supergiant game to be Hades 2, but I'm stoked as hell for it
I see what you did there 😎
hehe
hell
I didn't expect Pet the frog to replace pet the dog, but here we are
i listened to andrew tate & started following my dreams.. now i do food reviews on my RUclips channel 🤔
Badum tsss
I was literally just wondering if they’d do a sequel, I’m so unbelievably happy

I just played Hades for the first time earlier this year and fell in love with it. I am so ready for this.
I picked it up on sale over thanksgiving and put 100 hours into it. So stoked for this!
I just got it on sale last week and have falle in love with it!
Haha same i started two weeks ago and was wondering why i havent picked it up sooner because i fell in love instantly. So crazy that there will be a sequel. Excited to see which Gods they will include now
Same!! I feel like I got into it at just the right time
As someone who is literally playing Hades up to 15 minutes ago and was looking at special interactions with Nyx about an hour ago... THIS IS WONDERFUL NEWS!!!
uh..... "special interactions"? Did you maybe go to a website with a number in the URL to find those?
@@kte4423 I did and found nothing😭
It's one that plays between Zag and Nyx is you don't speak to her in you first few runs, but I didn't know how many runs
Thought you meant Chaos speaking to their daughter Nyx
Chaos likes their great-grandson/grandson Zagreus. Chaos>Chronos
So unbelievably excited for this. Hades is probably a one of the best games of all time. Cannot wait to play a sequel.
I’m in agreement with you. Top two for me for sure.
i got out of my chair and fucking yelled i was so excited
it wasn't that good.
@@boredgamer7841 It's all subjective but Hades is amazing. I've beaten hundreds of games and it is easily a top 5 personal favorite
@@slagothor48 I played this a very long time ago but from what I remember, my gripes with the game was that it felt like most weapons weren't viable unless you got really lucky with specific blessings. On the note of blessings, most of them were also really bad unless you got the correct synergy.

another thing to add, zagreus's left eye is green and his right is red. The exact opposite of Melinoe
Every time I am depressed or can't decide what game to play I return to Hades like clockwork, unbelievably excited for a second installation
Kronos is loose? And either the daughter or sister of Zagreus is off to hunt him!? And Hades is imprisoned!?!? Oh dear, this is going to be intense.
у Аида было 3 детей
It's his sister Melinoe, according to the game description
@@CrownofMischief ah. Wasn't sure. Thought they might be doing a bait and switch.
Supergiant is my favorite game developer ever! The original Hades was absolutely fantastic and I'm so endlessly excited for the sequel.
You might also enjoy Deadcells in the meantime. Great devs as well.
Still playing Hades to this day with almost 300 hours clocked in and this is the best thing I've seen all day
You have no idea how terrifyingly excited I am for this game to release
Let's freakin' gooooo! I'm so hyped!
So excited for this!!! Supergiant games never miss!
Looking forward to all the new music as well!!
I was not expecting a sequel but I’m all for it. Absolutely loved the first one and will definitely play this one.
Wonder if Zagreus would appear? Like maybe as a Companion summon like in the first game if you interact with him enough.
I’m hopping desperately for sibling rivalry 😂
@Sweet_Xochi why not a co op or versus feature?
That would be neat
Or he's going to give Boons to us.
Maybe zag is the father of the new mc?
@@ditto9174 I thought the same thing. In my mind it was obvious that the guy chained up, wasn’t Hades. It looked exactly like Zag but older
after 4 years and almost 3 thousand hours put in on hades, i can safely say this will be the very FIRST game i ever pre order. ever. im so unbelievably excited
I’m so pumped for this. Hades is such a fun game and now I am super giddy. LETS GOOOO
Just yesterday I looked up Supergiant's other games and asked Google if there would be a Hades 2. This is completely insane to get a pretty certain "no," then for them to drop this the next day!! I'm so excited for this!
I have a Hades tattoo, so you know I was clutching it as I was watching this trailer. Blood and darkness.

I HAVE NOT STOPPED SCREAMING FOR THE LAST HOUR I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY'RE MAKING THIS SEQUEL
Transistor made me fall in Supergiant, and Hades made to love them even more, im so hyped for this
Oh my God No!! I was just telling an acquaintance of mine how Hades was pure crack cocaine that needed to be avoided at all costs. I was way too addicted to that game and now you announce a sequel to drag me back in!?

HOT PEOPLE THE GAME 2 LETS GO
the first sequel of a game that Supergiant ever done. They sure will nailed it
Holy moly I just platinumed Hades on the PS5 last night and said I really hope they make a sequel lo and behold a sequel announced today! I am really looking forward to this game
This just made my year. Starfield WAS supposed to be the big launch for 2023, but Supergiant comin in with the FIRE!
I thought they said they would not make a sequel as their next game in an interview. Very consistent studio I think they will deliver and expand upon the gameplay
MARAVILHOSO. SUPER GIGANT É SURPREENDENTE.
Gigantesco Mano!
Got announced and I’m still playing the first one
Instant buy through Steam when it fully releases probably in early 2024.
Loves the original Hades.
I'm gonna shed a tear 😊
Didn’t see a sequel coming at all but man am I welcome to it! Absolutely LOVED Hades, played the ever living hell out of that game. Expect to do the same with this game
Bro I was just about to buy the first game and get into the Fandom. This is perfect timing.
Hades: Mommas Boy raging against Dad
Hades 2: Daddy's Girl raging against Grandpa
Hades 3: Boy's and Girl's Sister raging against ???
Gotta get that last skelly trophy before this hits!
Finally, I’ve waited so long. This looks amazing.
A more magic style Hades?? Sign me up!!!
In The Name of Hades! I'm so excited for this!
Just casually going to every trailer for Hades 2 and expressing my joy for this announcement
Oh, look, more painfully hot gods. Can’t wait.
I loved Hades the first game so much! OMG I'm so gonna buy this
Super excited for it. I just recently picked up Hades but have already sank over 20 hours in it. Along with Deadcells it is probably the best Rogue-like game of the last 10 years.
Melinoë, daughter of Persephone and Zeus, sister of Zagreus, my beloved
I can’t wait! This looks so good already!
I’m almost more excited about having the OST than than game 😅 Hades’ music was amazing
We also got some awesome fan music.
Beyond These Walls for example.
After Hades patched things up with Persephone and Zagreus, Hades decides having another child won't be so bad.
Unfortunately Hades then gets kidnapped, Zagreus disappears, and Melinoe has to be taken out of the Underworld for her own safety where Hecate raises her so she has the strength to save her family.
💙💙I’m so excited and so happy they did this!! Hades is an amazing game that deserves a sequel!!

Music soundtrack for Hades when you find his mother only for a while brings just soothes my soul 🥲
LETS GOOO
HOLY SH*T! Zagreus has a sister now?! And also... yay! My favorite rouge-like/rouge-lite now gets sequel!
Two sisters actually, this is just the more known one.
“Time cannot be stopped.”
Dio: “Allow me to introduce myself.”
Lets hope for some epic interaction between her and her brother.
I'm so happy, stoked and excited that Supergiant Games make the sequel of Hades !!!
As someone who's been meaning to pull the trigger on Hades, I guess now it's time.
Madonna mia it's happening!!! Can not wait for it
I wonder if we will meet Zag in this, maybe even as a god we can get boons from related to life/blood, or more likely as a character only referenced in dialogue and lore. Or perhaps this is a prequel so Zag is yet to be born
Doubt it's a prequel, since Melinoe is another child of Hades, but the first game makes it clear Zagreus is the first-born
Some way for sure, MC is his sister and Hades seems to be locked up.
(Maybe instead of escaping and fighting Hades we’re now trying to rescue Hades and have to fight Kronos?.)
@@CrownofMischief I believe that Zagreus is the first born, but if not then that's not something that would surprise me, since Hades and Nyx already lied about Persephone in the past. Though they had a good reason. Basically, it's most likely Zag is eldest, but I don't 100% believe that yet
Finally got around to playing Hades and found myself addicted, playing late into the morning.
This sequel is sure to kick ass.
Oh now this gets me very very stoked. More Olympians: check! More Nyx kids: check! Relatively obscure child of Hades protagonist: check! Visuals and music just as promising as last time: check!
Just one point of contention...
Aargh, Kronos is not Chronos you guys!
Edit: and more Chthonic big stonking deals like Mommy Hecate
what if... both were here actually
@@chakradarrat8832 I'd be pleasantly surprised. They're not the first to make this conflation *cough cough Rick*
I was waiting for some news from Supergiant Games for so long. And then they dropped the bomb and announced an entire sequel to Hades. Hell yeah!
I still love playing the game, just time to time, as the replayability is so good. Looking forward to this so much!
I barely started playing when it was about to leave gamepass and I havent put it down! I barely learned to play the harp!! SUPER STOKED FOR THIS ONE
I recently been playing through hades, and man once I’m done I’m ready for this.
YO THIS GAME LOOKS SICK
YAAASSSSSS I saw this premiere and asked she looked like she had Zags leafs then the theme played and I screamed
Cronos will be shown, amazing.
oh shit! You can play as Zagreus' sister Melinoe
WOW
hope we get to see Zagreus and the other gods from the 1st game here too!
Very nice, unexpected surprise!!
Yes, so excited for this. Nice 1 Supergiant!
Didn't even think we'd get a Hades 2! What a lovely surprise
Oh shit we fighting Kronos WND playing as Hades daughter Melione? This should be interesting
Holy this was unexpected, hope that Zag was that chained character and will be somehwat of a secret boss
id say it looked a hell of alot like Hades
It's probably Hades himself. Melinoe is the daughter of Hades, and probably the sister of Zag. My guess is that it is set long after Hades 1. I think it'll be something like Kronos and the Titans got loose, and have overthrown the Olympians. She was probably born after Zag's adventures in Hades 1 ? Dunno.
YES, omg so happy!!!
I put such an incredible amount of time into Hades to experience all there is to the story and I cannot wait for this. Incredible news!
150+ hours in the main game, all achievements, no hit bosses...
Dear Lord, I’m ready to do this again!
Imagine zagreus as a boon
This and armored core were the highlights for me
I just bought the first one a few weeks ago and i still feel like playing it. I cannot wait for this
When that guitar chord hit @0:08 we already knew
I think it would be really cool if we could get a boon from Zagreus, something to do with rebirth or maybe blood
First one was amazing man, it was such a good feeling playing it...
I just got home from a 14 hour work day and this saved my night. LETS GOOOOOOOOO
AHHHHHHHHH
I have sooooo many questions but overall just really freaking excited for this!!
im gonna buy this game even tho i havent finished hades 1 yet
we all love the game and are waiting for a sequel but... holy shit what was that battle choreography, thats insane
OMG After following Hades from the very beginning of Alpha testing to it's official launch and beyond. I am so fucking excited!!!
Bro I was just replaying hades earlier and was thinking about how a sequel would've been awesome,....mannnnn
You know, Hades must've really stepped up his parenting with Melinoe. If this was Zagreus, he'd probably just leave him with Kronos
Thats insane, I'm ready for another run
I just put Hades down for the third time a little while ago for Bayo3. Now this? I’m so hyped!
nemeses looks so sick
I can't this is too hype
IF THIS IS ABOUT THE SIX TRAITORS DYNASTY AND THE TITANOMACHY
Possibly but probably not, considering Melinoë is likely Persephone and Hades' daughter... But there will be ties, no doubt!
OMG I'm so excited for this!
Dude, i’ve 110 hours and havent reach the ending of the storyyyy
LETS GOOOOOOOOO- THE NEW CHARACTERS THE NEW LINES AUGHGHGH
While we were expecting a DLC, Supergiant simply releases a new game. Built different
