Cross-Save Support Comes to Hades on Nintendo Switch

Hades Cross-Save

Developer Supergiant Games have announced Hades has now updated to support cross-save support on Nintendo Switch.

This rouge-like casts players as the son of Hades; Zagreus. Desperate to escape hell, Zagreus must fight his way through numerous floors and foes. Players can also gain the favor of the Greek Gods, granting them new powers. Not only will players get gradually stronger each run, so to shall the story advance.


The update on Nintendo Switch introduces improvements from the PC post-launch patches, and introduces the ability to transfer save date from the PC version to Nintendo Switch (and vice-versa).

You can find the full rundown (via Steam) below.

Hades is a god-like rogue-like dungeon crawler that 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.

BATTLE OUT OF HELL
As the immortal Prince of the Underworld, you’ll 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.

UNLEASH THE FURY OF OLYMPUS
The Olympians have your back! Meet Zeus, Athena, Poseidon, and many more, and choose from their dozens of powerful Boons that enhance your abilities. There are thousands of viable character builds to discover as you go.

BEFRIEND GODS, GHOSTS, AND MONSTERS
A fully-voiced cast of colorful, larger-than-life characters is waiting to meet you! Grow your relationships with them, and experience thousands of unique story events as you learn about what’s really at stake for this big, dysfunctional family.

BUILT FOR REPLAYABILITY
New surprises await each time you delve into the ever-shifting Underworld, whose guardian bosses will remember you. Use the powerful Mirror of Night to grow permanently stronger, and give yourself a leg up the next time you run away from home.

NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE
Permanent upgrades mean you don’t have to be a god yourself to experience the exciting combat and gripping story. Though, if you happen to be one, crank up the challenge and get ready for some white-knuckle action that will put your well-practiced skills to the test.

SIGNATURE SUPERGIANT STYLE
The rich, atmospheric presentation and unique melding of gameplay and narrative that’s been core to Supergiant’s games is here in full force: spectacular hand-painted environments and a blood-pumping original score bring the Underworld to life.

Hades is available on Windows PC, Mac (both via the Epic Games Store, and Steam), and Nintendo Switch. In case you missed it, you can find our review here (we highly recommend it).
