New Hades 2-Like Game with Monster Girls Officially Confirmed for 2027

Since the explosion of OG Hades and Hades 2, more and more developers have put their own spin on the action roguelike formula it pioneered (itself just an expansion of the core formula). Some roguelike games lean harder into RPG progression, others into storytelling, but BattleBrew Productions is taking a different route entirely.

 

While BattleBrew Productions is a relatively unknown name, its upcoming game like Hades 2 has a clear vision: it mixes the core combat and roguelike progression of Hades 2, especially its combat, with dating sim mechanics and Monster Girls—the self-described genre that gives young women the visual or physical traits of certain monsters or creatures. While players won't have to wait too much longer to play it, they'll be waiting a little longer than originally planned. 

 

Originally targeting a Q1 2027 launch, developer BattleBrew Productions and publisher Red Dunes Games have now shifted the game in question, HellHeart Breaker, into Q2 2027. It's only a small delay, but it pushes back one of the more unique Hades 2-like games currently in development. In brief, fans can expect a cool Hades 2-like progression system with a fictional Asian setting and a cool twist on the dating sim genre within HellHeart Breaker.

 

 

The best roguelike games know the run is what matters. HellHeart Breaker itself promises plenty of variety between runs, with players unlocking new abilities, mastering dozens of weapons, and shaping their own build through elemental progression. According to BattleBrew Productions, HellHeart Breaker includes:

 

• Seven rival clans, each with its own agenda.
• Nine planned endings based on player choices.
• 35 different weapons
• Seven elemental progression trees and numerous augments.
• Seven unique worlds to explore.
• Romance options that directly affect gameplay.
• Outfit customization and home decoration.
• Fishing and a bustling Kappa Market filled with food and activities.

 

Like many modern roguelike games, HellHeart Breaker leans heavily into player choice beyond combat. Each clan has its own motivations, relationships, and storylines, allowing players to side with them, romance them, reject their ideals, or fight against them entirely. Those decisions shape both the journey through the Underworld and which of the game's nine endings players ultimately receive. The move from Q1 to Q2 2027 means fans will have to wait a little longer, but for anyone looking for another game in the same vein as Hades 2 with a very different twist, it's one worth keeping an eye on.
