To get into the Early Access beta for Hades, you’ll first need to purchase a copy of the game from the Epic Games store. To do this, visit the official Hades page on the Epic Games store and spend $19.99 to add the game to your Epic Games library. If you don’t have the Epic Games launcher, you can download that for free on the Epic Games website.
After purchasing the game and installing the Epic Games launcher, head to the Library tab in the Epic Games launcher and select “Download” to begin downloading Hades. The download size for Hades is 4.81GB so it shouldn’t take too long to download. After Hades is installed, you can click the “Launch” option to begin playing the game.
