Hades 2 Introduces Melinoe as New Protagonist with a Blend of Myth and Magic

The sequel shifts focus from Zagreus to his sister Melinoe, exploring her origins and powers in a reimagined underworld.

Melinoe, daughter of Hades and Persephone, takes center stage in Hades 2, armed with new magical abilities and a mission to defeat the Titan Chronos.
Unlike her brother Zagreus, Melinoe's gameplay emphasizes witchcraft and necromancy, reflecting her training under Hecate.
The game's narrative delves into Greek mythology, portraying Melinoe as a goddess of ghosts and protector, blending historical lore with new storytelling.
Hades 2 maintains core gameplay elements from its predecessor but introduces unique magical enhancements and witch-themed items for Melinoe.
Zagreus, the protagonist of the original game, is notably absent in person but remains a part of the story through references and a family portrait.
