We also get glimpses of various assets that would have littered the areas of the game, like pots, as well as a location that could seemingly change its appearance.<\/p>\n<p>In one image, a place supposedly called Hades&#8217; Armory would look different when in a &#8220;cursed&#8221; state. The outlet reports all these environments are quite wide and open, owing to the fact they&#8217;d need to accommodate multiple players.
