Patch 1 for Hades 2 improves sprint speed and resource gathering

On May 16, Supergiant Games posted the Early AccessPatch 1 notesalongside the patch itself. Patch 1 for Hades 2 introduces buffs for resource gathering and sprint speed, but those are just two of many new improvements and changes.

The most exciting improvements have to be the changes with resource gathering. Once you’ve unlocked the correctGathering Tool, you can gather from any resource point. Selecting a Tool in the Training Grounds allows for other resources not to appear as often as the one you prioritized. It also improved the Sprint speed, making Melinoe run faster and her turning more responsive.Here’s the full list of notes from Patch 1:
