Hades updates peak online for the first time in 4 years due to the popularity of Hades II

We wrote that Hades II set the online peak on the first day twice as high as the first part. However, the excitement for the sequel also had an impact on the first part, as it also had a new online peak.

Here's What We Know

On 12 May, Hades updated its online peak. At the same time, 54 thousand players were trying to escape from the kingdom of Hades. However, before that, the peak online was 38 thousand players. This figure was set back in 2020.

Flashback

Hades is a roguelike game (when you die, everything starts from the beginning, but you keep all weapons and resources) where the player takes on the role of Zagreus, the prince of the underworld and the son of Hades who wants to leave his father and forget about this place. The game immediately attracts attention with its setting: Greek mythology in a bright wrapper. On your way, you will meet the entire pantheon of gods: Zeus, Athena, Poseidon, Hades, and many others. They joke, tell interesting stories, teach us, and give us valuable items. In the game, it will take you only a few hours to talk to all of them, and they are not depicted in the same way as in films or other games.
