Welcome to Critical Hit, where I (or someone else on the PC Gamer team) celebrate and lament all things videogame music, audio design, and the ways our favourite games make our ears tingle.

I have not played Hades 2 since October 4 of 2025. That's not because I "fell out of love" with the game or whatever, I simply plugged 65 hours into it, beat the 'main story', had a jolly old time, and went on to play other things. But one thing about it has persisted: its soundtrack. God, I can't get Hades 2's soundtrack out of my head.
