Meet Narcissus: Hades 2’s Most Scandalous God Yet
For almost a year, Hades 2 players had to use their imagination when it came to Narcissus. The character was represented by a generic, green-hooded stand-in – nothing like the self-obsessed figure from Greek myth. But with the latest Unseen update, Narcissus finally has his true form. And wow, Supergiant really went all in!
Supergiant’s Signature Style: Bold, Sensual, and Unapologetic
Supergiant Games has always leaned into the more erotic aspects of Greek mythology. In the first Hades, gods and heroes were sultry, mysterious, and sometimes even romanceable. Voice actors were told to be “mischievous” and “suggestive” (source). The soundtrack set the mood, and every interaction was charged with history and unspoken connections. It was easy to forget you weren’t playing a dating sim between epic battles.
Hades 2: Turning Up the Heat
With Hades 2, the studio didn’t just keep the energy – they cranked it up. Now, players can take characters out on dates and even enjoy a full-on bath house sequence where everyone is, well, pretty undressed. Dionysus? He’s wearing a thong. So when it came to Narcissus, fans expected something eye-catching. But Supergiant surprised everyone by making him look like a twink straight out of a Greek fever dream – and the internet noticed.
Fan Reactions: Social Media Meltdown
The response has been wild. The top comment on the new YouTube trailer is all about Narcissus, and platforms like X (formerly Twitter) are full of fans losing their minds over the reveal.

As one user perfectly put it: “okay but if i was narcissus and i looked like this? i’d never stop looking at myself either,”
More Than Just Narcissus: Other Character Changes
Narcissus isn’t the only one getting a makeover. Prometheus, for example, now sports a rougher look – less clean-cut, and he’s actually bleeding from the mouth. These bold redesigns are sparking a new wave of fan art and speculation about what’s next for Hades 2.
The Mystery Is Gone – But the Fun Isn’t
Some fans admit they’ll miss the mysterious placeholder art. After all, part of Narcissus’ myth is that his beauty is almost too much to look at – maybe that green-hooded figure was the perfect tease. But now, with his official look out in the wild, everyone can join in the fun. And based on the internet’s reaction, nobody’s complaining.
