Supergiant Gameshas released the first major update forHades 2, which brings with it a new zone, new characters, new weapons, new dialogue, and plenty of other surprises.

There are always groups in Throne and Liberty looking for one or two characters of a particular role for something, and knowing how to either create or join a party is going to expedite the process tremendously....

Our guide on how to beat Sogne the Icebound is based on multiple runs, each of which gave us a stronger feel for what makes the fight potentially rough, and how to bypass that roughness outright....
