My adrenaline level is always high with Hades, which hasn’t changed much even on PS5. Herein lies the addictive nature of the loop: creating new builds with the abilities you choose that pair best with the weapon you’ve picked before you began your quest and trying to survive. Hades is a roguelike where you adventure through randomly generated rooms with a variety of enemies in an addictive, constant loop, calling upon Greek Gods for help. Along the way, you’ll meet many familiar Greek Gods like Zeus and Aphrodite ready to aid you on your quest to reach Mount Olympus.Īnd if you die on the way? No worries! You reappear at the entrance to the Underworld in a pool of blood, greeted by Hypnos who will relish in reminding you of how you died and who done it! Then you’re ready to try again. Hades follows Zagreus, the immortal son of hot-headed Hades, as he attempts to escape the Underworld by hacking and slashing through hordes of flaming skulls, powerful witches, and possessed chariots. Additionally, being on the PS5, Hades does have the added benefit of haptic feedback, but otherwise, there isn’t really any difference content-wise between the different iterations of the game. The PS5 version is even more beautiful and is every bit as entertaining, exciting, and addicting as ever. With Hades coming to PS5 and PS4 in glorious 4k and 1080p respectively and running at 60fps, I knew it was time to dive back into the addicting world full of Greek mythology, funny banter, and well-rounded, realized characters. It was a game that helped get me through much of the COVID-19 pandemic, and I’ve put almost 50 hours into the Nintendo Switch version.
