\nSupergiant Games<\/strong> recently held a technical test for Hades 2<\/strong>, leading to some datamining the game for future content.\n<\/p>\n

\nEarlier this week, Supergiant finally gave people the chance to go hands on with Hades 2 after announcing it back in 2022, thanks to a technical test on Steam. The game isn’t quite ready for early access just yet, though the point of the technical test is for Supergiant to prepare itself for the actual release. With the technical test not being even the early access release, that of course means most of the content that is ready has been locked off – but, some have datamined the test to find characters and other details that aren’t ready to be shared just yet. In fact, as shared to the game’s subreddit, one user who had shared some art of some of the new characters was contacted by Supergiant Games asking them to remove their tweets showing it off.\n<\/p>\n

“Hey, we wanted to ask if you’d be willing to delete this tweet containing data-mined content from Hades 2,” reads a Twitter message from Supergiant Games. “It was our mistake to include content in the build that wasn’t meant to be revealed yet, and we know no harm was intended by posting it or anything like that. This is just an example of something we hoped players would discover in the Early Access version.” It’s obviously an understandable request, as no developer would want details about their hard work getting out before the game even enters early access.\n<\/p>\n
