Hades 2 has you trudging through the underworld in an attempt to rescue your family from the clutches of Chronos, Titan of Time. Naturally, Melinoe has a number of powerful, legendary weapons 🐲at her disposal, each with their own advantages, disadvantages, ✤and playstyles. Also naturally, they all must be unlocked individually.

Hecate occupies a fundamental role for Melin🧔oë in Hades 2. Learn who she really is and where she comes from in this Explainer.

Following on from the trend establisﷺhed in the previous game, there are also certain 'aspects' to unlock, which can modify your weapons and even be empowered themselves, giving you more options and better chances on your travels. A true Hades 2 enthusiast will want to unlock and upgrade them all.

Hades 2 is currently in Early Access. The information below i💮s expected to change significantly as development progresses, and we'll update this article as soon as possible when those changes occur.

Updated June 9, 2024: We've updated this guide to reflect the changes made by Early Access Patch 2. Some figures may be slightly incorrect, but the final figures for each weapon in the upgrades table are accurate.

How To Unlock Every Weapon

Finishing off the Root-Stalker in Hades 2

There are currently five weapo🔴ns to unlock and play with in Hades 2. You begin with the Wi🌜tch's Staff by default, and can unlock the rest with certain recipes:

Weapon

Recipe

Description

Witch's Staff

Unlocked by default

A thrusting weapon with med✱ium range. The easiesไt weapon to get on with.

Sister Blades

1 Silver

Precise weapons with very quick close-ℱrange attacks and a ranged but slow special.

Umbral Flames

3 Silver, 3 Cinder

Fire-emitting staves that are slow but keep you at a safe range, for the☂ most part. Difficult to get used to෴.

Moonstone Axe

15 Silver

A heavy and slow but incredibly pow🏅erful melee weapon. Allows you to d▨efend, and has a long-range special.

Argent Skull

2 Glassrock, 1 Bronze

Throwable skulls that are limited in ammo and must be picked up after being thrown. Powerful burst poten🐈tial, but strategy🍬 needed.

While the first four weapons are all available from the start (to unlock, that is), the Argent Skull will only be selectable once you've progressed into the game a fair amount.

The items needed to unlock this weapon are found in the third region of the underworld path and the first region of the surface path.

How To Unlock Weapon Aspects

The weapon aspect menu in Hades 2

To begin with, your weapons will be pretty plain - only one flavour of them. Eventually, though, you will gain the incantation that allows you to unlock Weapon Aspects. These are 'varieties' of your weapons that change certain aspect⛄s, which may make them more suitable t🍒o your playstyle.

We aren't sure what the requirements are for unlocking this incantation, but the recipe is given to you by Hecate after defeating her in Erebus. It is likely that you must first unlock every weapon before sꦦhe will grant you the recipe.

Once the recipe is unlocked, you can cast it at any point at the cauldron with five Bronze and one🃏 Nightshade. Upon completion, you can access your Aspects at 🦩the weapon circle in the Training Grounds.

All weapons initially begin with Melinoe's Aspect, which is their default form. They also have multiple other aspects that can be unlocked usin💫g resources.

The table below contains every aspect, along with its upgradesไ and the resource requirements.
