Developer Supergiant Games had long thought about hell as a good option for mobile devices, given its pick-up-and-play nature. Although Netflix games are usually available on both iOS and Android, that won't be the case for hell, for now. Supergiant has stuck with iOS for the mobile versions of its games (it already has a Mac version of hell helped here since that platform and iOS use the Metal API). Not only that, the studio is made up of a small team. While Supergiant was preparing the mobile port of hellHe was also working on the sequel to the 2020 hit.
It took over a year of additional development time to achieve hell Mobile ready. “The main goal was to make this an uncompromising version of hell,” while making sure the game was “as efficient and fluid as possible,” Supergiant creative director Greg Kasavin recently told reporters.
One of the main goals of that work was to make sure the touch controls were perfect. The buttons have haptic feedback. You can resize and reposition controls and save your settings. Additionally, the buttons are customized for each action. So when you go to pet the adorable multi-headed devil dog Cerberus, there will be a dedicated button just for that. Don't worry if you prefer to use a Bluetooth controller or a plug-in gamepad like the Backbone One, as hell will be compatible with those. Other features include 60fps gameplay, cloud saves, achievements, and offline play.
hell comes to Netflix Games at an ideal time for Supergiant. It will bring fresh eyes to the game and give long-time fans an excuse to revisit the classic before the sequel arrives. Hades II is scheduled for early access on PC this spring.
