Hades 2 Patch Increases Sprint Speed and Dash, Adds Priority for Resource Gathering
After announcing it just a few days ago, Supergiant Games’ Hades 2 has received its first early access patch. It makes Melinoë’s sprint “innately” faster with more responsive turning. As a result, abilities that enhance her sprint have been “re-scaled.”
As for her Dash, it now allows for exiting attack recovery animations more reliably. However, perhaps the best change is no longer having to equip a Gathering Tool to collect materials. Instead, after unlocking the tool, you can choose to Prioritize, causing its specific resources to appear while others will pop up less often.
The Swift Runner, unlocked from the Altar of Ashes, also makes one’s dash immediate, though you’re invulnerable for “slightly less time,” since it’s faster. The sprint speed bonus has also been re-scaled for this.
Check out some of the patch notes below and full details here (though beware of spoilers). Supergiant has another patch coming next and will focus on the next big content update for Hades 2. Stay tuned in the meantime and check out our early access review.
