Developer Supergiant Games isn’t wiping the slate clean with Hades 2. Many gods, demigods, and other characters from the original game are returning in the sequel, bringing their voice actors in tow. The protagonist Melinoë will indeed receive help from allies who aided her brother in the prior game.

All voice actors and characters they play in Hades 2

There are nearly 40 characters in Hades 2, and almost as many voice actors. Some characters are voiced by the same (very talented) person. Logan Cunningham, for example, returns as Hades and Homer the Storyteller but is also voicing the new game antagonist Chronos. And Polyphemus. We may as well put Cunningham in his own category.

All new characters in Hades 2 and their voice actors

Hades 2 introduces many new names and faces into the game’s universe. Granted, they’re all from our own universe by way of Greek mythology, but still. Some of the new characters may be welcome surprises, so be sure to at least meet them all before scrolling down the list. No one likes to be spoiled, after all.

Unconfirmed returning characters

The list of unconfirmed characters includes those who have been hinted at, but it’s currently unknown how or if they’ll make their presence known in the sequel, as well as those who haven’t shown up. For the most part, you should expect some of these characters and their respective voice actors to appear in some form or another.

  • Zagreus and Skelly, played by Darren Korb
    • Zagreus is Melinoë’s brother and one of the family members she’s attempting to rescue from Chronos. It’s highly likely he’ll be in the game, but probably not as a playable character this time.
    • Skelly is sadly absent in the sequel and is totally not Schelemeus, the charismatic and respected hero who may be a skeleton wearing a beard. Wait a minute.
  • Megaera, played by Avalon Penrose
    • Meg is certainly hinted at in Hades 2. We’ll see if Penrose returns for the character.
  • Nyx, played by Jamie Landrum
    • Nyx is an important character in the original Hades and is a prisoner in Hades 2.
  • Ares, played by Cyrus Nemati
    • The god of war seemed to be absent from the technical test gameplay, but that doesn’t mean he’s out for good. Nemati’s other character Dionysys has made a return, so perhaps Ares also has a chance.
  • Persephone, voiced by Laila Berzins
    • The queen of the underworld and wife to Hades is a major part of Melinoë’s quest (especially since she’s her mother), so she’ll likely show.

There are many other characters in the original game, but their inclusion in Hades 2 isn’t a given. Characters like Asterius, Sisyphus, and Dusa certainly have many fans, but their role may end up only relegated to the first game. But Supergiant Games clearly loves the story of Hades and the characters therein, so maybe they’ll make some kind of appearance in the end.
