How to Unlock All Six Hidden Weapon Aspects in Hades

To unlock all the six hidden weapon aspects in Hades, players must first unlock all other aspects on the weapon, spend at least 5 Titan Blood upgrading the weapon, and then speak with the specific character who knows the weapon’s waking phrase. This process requires patience and dedication, as it may take multiple conversations with the character to obtain the waking phrase, but the reward is well worth the effort, granting players incredible power and a deeper understanding of the game’s mechanics.
