Hades II announced its third update today. The sequel to 2020 indie game darling Hades is technically still in early access on PC and Mac, but has been getting some beefy updates ahead of its expected official release later this year. The Unseen Update is a free, automatic update that mostly focuses on new combat development.
There's a new Vow of Rivals that allows players to challenge more powerful Guardian foes. All of the main weapons have received hidden aspects that offer new forms and fighting styles. There's also new hexes and blessings, some fresh artwork, and new story events to help grow your relationships with the many members of the ancient Greek pantheon.
When Hades II does exit early access with the launch of v1.0 — and developer Supergiant said that it doesn't have a timeline for that yet — the game will follow its predecessor's launch schedule. Switch 2 and Switch will be the first consoles to get the full release alongside PC and Mac, with PlayStation and Xbox players needing to wait before they'll get a version of the rogue-like.

Eyes on the Apple Mac mini M4? It's 15% off today from Amazon
If you're a fan of Apple's Mac mini desktop computers and you've been thinking about getting the latest series, you won't want to miss this chance at a discount on the Apple Mac mini M4. The configuration with 24GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD is on sale from Amazon at 15% off, bringing its price down from $999 to $849. As with all Apple deals, you should take advantage of the savings as soon as you can because the offer may disappear at any moment — hurry if you want to get it for $150 lower than usual. Why you should buy the Apple Mac mini M4 The Apple Mac mini M4 is a wonderful machine. We gave its more powerful counterpart, the Apple Mac mini M4 Pro, an impressive score of 4.5 stars out of 5 stars in our review, but the Apple Mac mini M4 will already provide a level of performance that meet the needs of most people. The M4 chip is a very powerful processor that allows the mini desktop computer to run like a gaming PC, in addition to being a very dependable productivity tool, and the 24GB of RAM ensures that you can smoothly multitask between apps. Measuring just 5 inches by 5 inches by 2 inches, the Apple Mac mini M4 is even smaller than its predecessors, but inside the little package is enough juice to maximize the capabilities of Apple Intelligence. The desktop computer also has no shortage of ports for your monitor and accessories — two USB-C ports and a headphone jack at the front, and three Thunderbolt 4 ports, an Ethernet port, and an HDMI port at the back. Apple's devices rarely appear in desktop computer deals, so this offer from Amazon for the Apple Mac mini M4 is going to attract a lot of attention. From the original price of $999 for this configuration with 24GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD, you'll be able to buy it for $849 for savings of $150. You're going to have to be quick in completing your transaction though, as the stocks that are up for sale may run out very soon. Push through with your purchase of the Apple Mac mini M4 immediately to secure the 15% discount.
