Of the many big-name titles released last year, one that surprised many people in a major way was\u00a0Hades<\/em><\/strong>. Released at the tail end of 2020,\u00a0Hades<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>blew a significant number of players away with its addictive gameplay loop, memorable and charming characters, and intensely composed music. Although, for some players, the game served as an excellent example of LGBTQ+ representation in the gaming industry.<\/p>\n

One\u00a0hidden detail in Hades<\/em> that some fans may not know about<\/a>\u00a0is that there’s a romance option. If the player so chooses, the playable character Zagreus can choose to date three out of the many interactive NPCs present in the House of Hades. Since the player can choose to date either Thanatos, Megaera, or Dusa, this makes Zagreus a bisexual character, which isn’t always a common occurrence in gaming and an aspect of his character that many players took to.<\/p>\n

This led\u00a0Hades\u00a0<\/em>to be nominated in multiple categories at the first-ever Gayming Awards, hosted by EA Games<\/a>. Of the many games nominated across a multitude of categories,\u00a0Hades\u00a0<\/em>managed to take home Game of the Year. In addition to Game of the Year,\u00a0Hades\u00a0<\/em>also won\u00a0Gayming Magazine Readers’ Award, both of which were decided by\u00a0an international judging panel of LGBTQ+ industry professionals.<\/p>\n

Aside from\u00a0Hades<\/em>, other titles that feature LGBTQ+ representation were also recognized at the Gayming Awards 2021, such as\u00a0If Found…\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0Tell Me Why<\/em><\/a>. This awards show will certainly help recognize and highlight the ever-growing presence of LGBTQ+ individuals within not just the video game industry and community, but also video games themselves, which the industry has been lacking for some time.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Within the last several years especially, LGBTQ+ representation as it applies to video games has started to reach incredible new heights. With landmark games like\u00a0Life is Strange <\/em>and\u00a0Night in the Woods<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>showcasing incredibly well-written, complex, and memorable LGBTQ+ characters, that same representation can also apply to triple-A game franchises as well with\u00a0The Last of Us\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0Borderlands<\/em>.<\/p>\n

In terms of\u00a0Hades<\/em>, its use of LGBTQ+ representation is an excellent example of what can be done to further showcase LGBTQ+ individuals within video games.\u00a0Since its launch back in late 2020,\u00a0Hades\u00a0<\/em>has achieved a massive amount of success and with the physical version of Hades<\/em> on Nintendo Switch<\/a>\u00a0releasing pretty soon, it will surely give fans further reason to play and appreciate this game.<\/p>\n

Hades\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>is available now on PC and Nintendo Switch.<\/p>\n
