(Console exclusive means it’s coming to Switch + PC, but not on other consoles on release)
Great, but I’ll keep playing it on my steamdeck. With your console exclusivity.
I just got mine a week ago. I haven’t turned on my PC since lol
When I got my deck, my instant library of things to play due to old Humble Bundle purchases was staggering.
My backlog would take several lifetimes to complete, and I still by new games because “sale!”
I need to DL all of them before society collapses and there’s no access…
“But there was time now…”
$1-10 now is preparation for the future
That seems like a questionable move tbh
I suspect that Nintendo is offering them more than enough money for exclusivity to make it no longer ‘questionable’ for Supergiant, at least from a financial perspective.
I’d imagine the Hades IP makes good money on Steam. It must be a guap unless I am dead wrong.
Hades 2 is only console exclusive to the Switch 2; it’s also releasing on Steam.
Ah, yeah I didnt gleam that from reading the word console a million times in the article. Thank you. It makes sense now. Nintendo money + Steam sales.
It’s no different from Hades 1. It was exclusive to PC and Switch at launch, then released for other consoles 11 months later. If it worked out for that game, I don’t see why it wouldn’t for this one.
The only thing I know about Hades is its on Steam and every character it shows is chiseled as hell.
Every character in the first game is hot. Every character in the second game is also hot.
Then there’s Dionysus.
I needed to check. “console exclusive” means it’s coming to pc and both switches.
Oh both switches?
in OP’s link, scroll once, see “latest update”
I’m sure they’re getting a ton of cash from Nintendo.
I’ll stick to the steam deck and recommend it to anyone who asks.
Having already purchased the Steam early access version, I was ready to be pissed off until I read further in.
Considering that 99% of other “portable consoles” on the market are actually handhelds pc, which can download it fron Steam… No. It won’t be.
Does the Steam Deck count as a PC or as a console?
In this case, it counts as a PC, but given that you have to ask the question, I think that speaks volumes.
PC.
PC, because console has less games than PC
Both. The future isn’t in consoles, it’s in console-like PCs. Just wait until Valve drops the Fremont, I believe it’ll change absolutely everything.
The dictionary definition of “console” would include the deck AND gaming PCs.
The line in bluring, but the Deck can run Windows if you want, it’s a PC stuffed into a controller (and that’s not a dig at it, either)
Boo you whore.
Glad I have a PC. Again.
Methinks that’s why Silksong has taken forever to come out. Will likely be a console exclusive as well for a time
We already know it’s going to be on Switch 2 and Xbox, including Game Pass day 1. It’s not going to be exclusive, but at the very least, Microsoft paid handsomely for it.
Oh meaning PlayStation will have to wait then
Microsoft is bringing their own games to PlayStation at this point. It’s possible it’s kept off PlayStation, but I doubt it. Team Cherry knows what their game is worth, and that would be a massive buyout.
Silksong hasn’t taken much longer than og hollow Knight. They just announced it too early
I hope they’re prepared to have a fraction of the success they would have if they didn’t continue the absurd concept of console exclusivity.
It’s also on steam, like already you can buy it in Early Access
I don’t think many people who aren’t to Hades are like “aw fuck I can’t play it on my PS5??”
The three Xbox users are in shambles though
Ah, didn’t know that it’s on Steam. Well, there’s that at least. Still not a fan of console exclusivity either way, though.

im pretty sure I have it on steam as early access and im waiting for the full release to finish the story…
