![]() ![]() On the subject of gameplay, Hades is a Rogue-lite, meaning it’s designed to be played repeatedly with each iteration being different from the previous and your character becoming slightly more powerful as you collect resources to unlock abilities to use on future runs. There’s also an astounding amount of dialogue written for every character, which works superbly to prevent the repetitious nature of the rogue-lite gameplay ever feeling stale. The characters are all fully voiced and written with a tremendous sense of personality that makes each of them feel interesting and unique, which makes you excited to see exactly what they have to say whenever you get the opportunity to speak with them. The narrative in Hades plays out like a complex family drama with a huge cast of characters from the pantheon of Greek gods, each with their own backstory, personality and motivations that tie into Zagreus’ epic adventure. If the minions of hell overpower Zagreus, he gets sent right back to his father’s doorstep only to be summarily chastised by Hades for his futile escape attempt, then promptly running off to try again. ![]() ![]() Unfortunately, escaping hell isn’t so easy – even for the son of Hades. Hades has instructed his minions of hell to stop Zagreus at all costs, however the gods of Olympus are trying to help Zagreus escape the underworld by offering their powers to him whenever they can. You take on the role of Zagreus, the son of Hades, who is on a quest to escape the underworld and join the gods in Olympus, against his father’s wishes. In terms of the basics, Hades is an isometric ‘Rogue-lite’ action game with a strong narrative element layered on top. The physical edition also comes with a download code for the Hades Original Soundtrack, by composer Darren Korb, featuring two and a half hours of blood-pumping music created for the game plus a full-color 32-page character compendium booklet, with artwork by Jen Zee, featuring the game’s colorful cast of gods, ghosts and monsters. Another highlight of the PS5 release is that the game is available as both a digital download and a physical copy which almost has this retro feel to it and as a result, will more than likely become a collector’s item. However if you’re hoping to port your saves over from the PC or Switch, unfortunately this cross-save feature is absent so you will need to start again, not that this is a problem due to its flawless design. If you are new to Hades, you will be pleasantly surprised at the story, gameplay mechanics (including combat), visuals and audio on the PS5. The PS5 version (and XSX) also boasts 4K graphics at 60fps (frames per second) and the controls are well mapped and implemented on the DualSense controller.
