Mythology roguelike "Hades" sells more than 1 million units

Supergiant's latest title, the mythic action roguelike Hades, has sold over 1 million units.

Hades initially launched in Early Access in December 2018 as a one-year Epic Store exclusive, with the game's full 1.0 release just last week on September 17. This milestone of 1 million units is the combined number of units sold in both Early Access and full release on PC and Switch.

In celebration of the game's landmark, Supergiant revealed in a tweet that the game shifted 700,000 units during Early Access and sold another 300,000 units after release. The studio thanked Early Access players, saying, "We designed 'Yomigaeri' for Early Access. That's exactly what we did. [Critics and players alike have lived for the drama of the Greek gods, their gorgeous artwork, and flashy combat since its Early Access debut. The roguelike currently has a comfortable score of 92 on Metacritic for its PC release, and in our Hades review, Jodi gave it a 90, describing the action as "adrenaline-pumping, jittery, and excitingly intense."
