gamesradar.com:

Hades 2 is set to launch into early access in 2023, and we are not prepared. This is the first direct sequel that Supergiant Games has ever developed, with the team eager to return to its award-winning roguelike – GamesRadar+ counted the original Hades among the best best games of 2020.
