Hades was available back in 2018, but its official release took place on September 17, 2020. The title is available on personal computers and the Nintendo Switch console. The second and third places in the ranking were the exclusives for the PlayStation console Spider-Man: Miles Morales and The Last of Us Part II, respectively.
