The wait is almost over for console players. Supergiant Games has officially confirmed the regional release times for Hades 2 on Xbox and PS5, with the game set to launch on April 14, according to Pure Xbox.
Hades 2 has already proven itself on PC and Nintendo Switch during its Early Access run, building a passionate fanbase around its roguelike formula and tight narrative design. Xbox players - including those on Game Pass - will finally get their shot at the underworld next week.
Supergiant shared a full launch time map so players know exactly when to clear their schedules. Whether you're jumping in through Game Pass day one or picking it up separately, knowing your regional unlock time makes a difference when a game this anticipated drops.
A strong track record heading into console launch
Hades 2 has been one of the most talked-about games in the roguelike space since it entered Early Access, continuing the legacy of the original Hades which swept game of the year discussions back in 2020. The sequel expands the scope significantly, introducing a new protagonist and a fresh narrative chapter that's kept players hooked through multiple updates.
Landing on Game Pass at launch is a smart move for visibility. It puts the game in front of a massive subscriber base who might not have followed its PC Early Access journey, and Supergiant's pedigree means word-of-mouth should do the heavy lifting from there.
April 14 is shaping up to be a big day for Game Pass subscribers. Mark the time for your region and get ready to die - a lot - in the best possible way.
