Supergiant would later release ''VideoGame/{{Transistor}}'' in 2014 to further acclaim. In 2017, they would release ''VideoGame/{{Pyre}}'', a party-based sports RPG that was a change of their usual formula. The game was also well-received, winning "Best Indie" in Game Informer's 2017 RPG of the Year Awards. Less than a month after the game's release, the company began working on ''VideoGame/{{Hades}}'', which was revealed in December 6 at the 2018 Game Awards, releasing on Early Access at the UsefulNotes/EpicGamesStore. Its official "Version 1.0" was formally released September 17th, 2020. It received critical acclaim, was named "Game of the Year" by several publications, and won "Best Indie" and "Best Action" in the 2020 Game Awards.
