And just like that, double-dipping with Hades on Nintendo Switch is a matter of when, not if. In an update released this afternoon, Supergiant Games added cross-save support for PC and Switch players.
Here’s the overview for the Nintendo Switch version, as outlined by the developer:
- Click ‘Cross-Saves’ in the main menu, then connect your Steam or Epic Games Account.
- Pause and quit to upload save data.
- More specifics about the cross-save process are in the Help & Info section.
Supergiant also offered a quick word of warning before anyone rushes in: “Please be sure that your progress is in different save slots between PC and Switch! Instructions on how to move your PC saves to a different slot are in the Help & Info section on Switch (you just rename the save file).”
This is a fantastic option to have, and if I didn’t know cross-saves were on the way, I probably would’ve already owned two copies of Hades. The combat is fun enough that I would’ve been willing to start fresh without all of my weapons, perks, and character-wooing progression carrying over.
Today’s Switch update also has “minor fixes and improvements” from a post-launch PC patch, and you can go through the particulars – including weapon and boon balance changes – over in this post.
