Even in early access, Hades 2 is a game with a satisfying gameplay loop filled with engaging boss fights. As players make their way through the Underworld and on the surface in Hades 2, they will frequently encounter Guardians, powerful foes who serve as the game's bosses between levels. Each of these Guardians has different combat mechanics for players to learn, and they increase in challenge the further players get. Hades 2 Guardians such as Scylla and Cerberus can certainly put up a fight, making defeating them rewarding enough simply for victory. However, one Guardian may outshine the rest, especially considering she is the first that players will encounter each time they venture into the Underworld.
