Hades II — PS5 & PS5 Pro performance
Technical analysis last updated
Hades II runs as a single unified configuration on PlayStation: there is no graphics or performance mode selector because the console build already targets 120fps at full quality. Supergiant has explicitly confirmed there are no PS5 Pro-specific enhancements - Greg Kasavin stated the PS5 version is already at full quality, so the Pro simply runs the same build. Load times are the fastest of any platform: roughly 8-9 seconds to the title screen and 3-4 seconds to load a run on PS5, shaving about a second off each on PS5 Pro. Exact internal resolution figures have not been published, and no ray tracing is used in this stylised art style.
