Yo, that's definitely Hecate! She's one of my favorite figures in Greek mythology! Goddess of Magic, trained basically all the famous witches or was their mother, is related to necromancy, is deeply connected to Artemis as the goddess of the dark side of the moon, was a Titan who helped fight against Chronos, helped Demeter in her search for Persephone, in some myths helped safeguard Zeus in his infancy, and due to her tripartite nature, has many domains, such as traveling, transition between life and death, medicine and poison, among others, is conflated with or given the forms of many other goddesses, and is said to have Melinoe, the goddess of spirits and ghosts, as one of her aspects. That same Melinoe is also said to have been fathered by Zeus through Persephone when he took the form of Hades, so Melinoe could be be Zagreus's sister or half-sister, but is 1000% Hecate's protégé. This game is about to be GOTY material from the get go!
That’s why hades is so good. Even though you die over and over again you still feel like you’re making progress because with each run you can get further and further. Each attempt is different. Trust me I felt the same way. I usually hate rogue type games for your exact reason, but hades does the formula so masterfully.
First time in my life Supergiant games disappointed me. They were never making sequels, even for much better games like Bastion or Transistor. And of course they had to break this rule to make a sequel of their game i dont like the most, that is grindy unfun roguelike. Sad panda. My day is ruined.
I know what you feel, buddy. I, too, am not fond of this grind simulator and will definitely not play the second part. I also don't like that they broke their rule. Apparently, the temptation to make easy money proved stronger.
Lol if you don't like a game doesn't mean others are the same. Hades is an incredibly amazing game. This trailer literally makes me hype. You simply just dislike roguelike games as a genre.
Yea roguelikes are one of my most disliked genres, unfortunately they sell well, so it was financial decision. I understand that, but at the same time I feel disappointed, they lost my respect. Btw this doesnt even look like sequel, but like dlc.
Wow, not expecting a sequel of this, but I am excited.
Great announcement and already one of the best reveals.
“If Hades is so good then where’s Hades-“

love the lore!
Haven’t played the first game but this trailer makes me wanna play it
You should
It's an absolutely great idea to play the first game :D
The first game is a stone-cold classic. Perfect in every way
I did play the first game and I'm all the more excited because of it.
Do yourself a favor and play the first game.
I can't wait for the sequel to my favorite dating game!
(Oh and the fights are cool too I guess)
Don’t forget the goodest boy
@@soundconduit2254 CEBBY MY BOY!!!!
It is also my fav fishing building game too
And social sim, cant forget that
Melinoe - Goddess of Spirits and Ghosts with that hand and eyes to match her brother.
Silksong fans in the background nodding slowly, smiling cruel cruel smiles.
Now this is art
Hell yeah! Loved the original, can't wait for this.
Now this is epic
Alphinaud is Apollo. He'll literally "Light the way!"
Haze is the best game of all time . . . FINALLY a sequel featuring some of the lesser known Greek gods and goddesses. I CAN’T WAIT
I will say they should give it a different name than Hades since it looks like they are drifting away from his importance from the first game
The series is back with the second one. It seemed Hellfire has some serious Fury.
YAAAAA MY FAV DATING SIM GETS A SEQUEL
This is insane
Cant wait
This was the biggest reveal for me.
YES!!!!
Great seeing u here!
Great, another game to play on my deck.
Nemesis pls throw me across a room
NOBODY TOUCH ME THIS IS THE ONLY THING I CARE ABOUT NOW
I'm glad they showed actual gameplay and not just CGI heavy trailer with heavy percussion - Spectacle is not gaming -
I thought based just on the traitor it be subtitled Kronos
And Hades 2? GG.
Can't wait
Yey!
From randomly googling "Greek goddess moon" I'm guessing this new protagonist is Selene
No its melinoë, daughter of hades and whom is described as saffron klad which is an epithet in poetry for a moon goddess
Hold up, does this mean Zagreus has a sister?
@@cyberdalek9374yes, several siblings according to mythology
@@cyberdalek9374 i hope he gets a cameo
@@fillhill1508 Woah, that's cool! 😄
So looks like we’ll be playing as melinoe
this looks sick
I love hearing the people in the crowd loosing their shit during the trailer
I’m so hyped
hype!!
HYPE 💯
2 highlight of the night
Brother, this animation was just smoth 1:04
Ok cool
Hades but instead of ascent it’s descent? 😯
holyy
Nemesis is hunky.
WHO IS SHE?
@@demimachia yeah hades is her dad BUT WHO IS SHE???
Melinoë daughter of Zeus who took the form of Hades and bedded Persephone
So is she Zag and Meg's daughter? Who is she?
Hades' daughter Melinoe
She's Zagreus' sister
Macaria.
neat
its just a copy paste with a new setting
Please this time, make the romance actually happen
You literally have sex with Than and Meg, what do you want?
@@Vysceral they just don't commit and continue after the deed. I want something that is longer after the deed, not just one night stand smh
This comment section is disapointing
Are they adding characters who never existed? Hades only had the one child. Who is this woman? Circe? Medea?
Melinoe is another one of his children. She is the bringer of nightmares in mythology.
Idea of a game where everytime you die, you start from the beginning sounds very boring and absurd to me. I want to feel that I make progress.
That’s why hades is so good. Even though you die over and over again you still feel like you’re making progress because with each run you can get further and further. Each attempt is different. Trust me I felt the same way. I usually hate rogue type games for your exact reason, but hades does the formula so masterfully.
You can play hundreds of runs and still get new story and dialog betweem them. Game script/story Literally won a Hugo award
Should’ve just kept the same character from the first one 🙄
Why is it call Hades 2 if we aren’t even playing as the main character from the first one. 🤦🏽♂️
We didnt play as Hades in the first one, we played as his son.. and this is potentially his daughter so its equivalent
Who cares? It's another hades game you should be happy.
@@cin8151 I know that I never said he was Hades 🤦🏽♂️
I said *WHY AREN’T WE PLAYING AS THE MAIN CHARACTER FROM THE FIRST ONE* ✌🏽
@@AstaIsAMonster Because the plot was resolved.
