Despite being a mostly bug-free release, Hades does come with some issues that are preventing players from enjoying the game to the fullest. Some of these issues have now been fixed, thankfully.

The first Hades update fixes an issue where save data is not loading properly. The update also introduces other minor fixes and improvements, as confirmed by Supergiant Games on Twitter.

If the game does not attempt to update automatically when you start or restart it, you can manually update as follows:
– highlight the game icon in the Home screen
– press the + Button
– select Software Update > Via the Internet

The good news for Hades don’t end here today. Supergiant Games has also confirmed a few hours ago that cross-save features are coming soon to the game.

We expect our cross-saves update sometime in October.

Hades has been in Early Access on Steam since December 2018, and finally released as a full game on September 17th. All the hard work from the developer paid off, as Zagreus’ journey to escape the Underworld to reach Mount Olympus is incredibly engaging, thanks to the high-speed combat and well crafted roguelike features.

Hades is now available on Nintendo Switch and PC worldwide.
