But hey, the thirst-fest didn’t stop there. Odysseus has gotten peopleto understand"why Penelope waited for him for 20 years." Poseidon’s redesign has elicitedcries of"Oh God, they made him hotter." And really, just about the entire cast is grabbing some emotion ranging from respectful admiration to full-on “awoogas” from the peanut gallery.

Invites are starting to roll out for theHades 2 technical testwith Early Access to follow soon after the conclusion of that test, and the actual game is sure to offer much more than just thirsty character art. But the fact that the community is already professing its love and making plans to wed the sequel’s cast makes it look like Hades 2 is set to replicate the original’s success and then some.

Anticipated indie Soulslike fears competition as Hades 2 test approaches and Silksong fans crawl from the woodwork: “It better just be us vs Stellar Blade as god intended.”
