Supergiant Games has released Hades 2 patch 1, enhancing gameplay with new content and adjustments. This update is expected to refine the player experience by adding events and improving game mechanics.
New Events and Storyline
The patch introduces new events both before and after the game's true ending. Scenes appearing before the credits have been tweaked for clarity. Players who have completed the new content may revisit events, including the finale, using the 'Returning to a Real Possibility' cauldron incantation.
Gameplay Enhancements
The update speeds up progression for several Fated Prophecies. Players benefit from improved boons and upgrades, with increased chances to acquire duo boons through the Favor boon from Chaos and the Yarn of Ariadne from the Well of Charon. Cauldron incantation requirements have been lowered, and the Kudos cost for Crossroads decorative items has been reduced, with refunds issued for prior purchases.
Technical Adjustments
Patch 1 allows players to disable the low-health 'danger pulse' flash and manage FPS settings when VSync is off. The Music Maker feature now includes the Primordial Chaos theme, enhancing auditory experience.
