At the moment, it appears that the early access build of Hades 2 doesn’t include the ability to double dash. Considering the changes to movement in the sequel, this is definitely unfortunate. With a more rigid and at times clunky dash ability, the option to enhance it would go some way to improving Melinoe’s agility in combat.

However, just because the game doesn’t currently include the option doesn’t mean it isn’t going to be added. Although there’s been no official word, we’d wager that with all the Hades 2 Keepsakes, different types of Boons, and multitudes of concoctions, there’s a reasonable chance something related to improving the dash ability will come along sooner or later.

That’s all we’ve got for you on the status of the double dash in Hades 2 right now. While it’s a shame to see this mechanic has yet to cross over from the first game, there are plenty of other ways to improve your combat effectiveness. A big one of course is concoctions. These require a variety of different materials to make. If you’re struggling to find any, whether it’s simple Hades 2 Marble or Hades 2 Iron, or rarer ingredients like Hades 2 Golden Apples or Hades 2 Mandrake seeds, we’ve got you covered.
