13. Supergiant's New Game Is Hades, In Early Access Now

Supergiant Games, the wonderful devs behind the terrific Bastion, Transistor, and Pyre have a new game that you can play today.

True to Supergiant's gorgeous isometric style, Hades is a slick action-RPG, and launched in early access for £17.99/$19.99 immediately after the trailer was unveiled.

The kicker, however, is that Hades is available exclusively (for now) on Epic Games Store, Epic's new storefront which is attempting to compete with Steam by offering developers an outstanding 88% split of the revenue.

Though it's always smart to be at least a little wary of early access titles, given the strength of this trailer and Supergiant's exceptional track record, it's easy to have faith here.
