Hades (JPIM) (English) – Switch

Defy the god of the dead and escape the Underworld.

Winner of more than 50 Game of the Year awards, Hades is rogue-like hack-and-slash dungeon crawler, now available for the first time on PlayStation.

Wield the powers and mythic weapons of Olympus to break free from the clutches of the god of the dead himself, while growing stronger and unraveling more of the story with each unique escape attempt.

Aided by his extended family – that just so happen to include Zeus, Athena and other gods of Olympus – Zagreus’s efforts are boosted with temporary buffs (known as Boons) that can be selected to suit your playstyle, and permanent upgrades that can be obtained during each play-through.

Hades combines the best aspects of Supergiant’s critically acclaimed titles, including the fast-paced action of Bastion, the rich atmosphere and depth of Transistor, and the character-driven storytelling of Pyre.
