I can't speak to the new update, but the pre-relesae version lets you face and beat the main boss multiple times just like in Hades 1. However (and I'm trying to avoid spoilers here), there is a "second path" in Hades 2 that didn't exist in Hades 1 which currently only allows you to get partway through before you receive a "thanks for playing Hades 2!" win screen obscuring the rest of the game.

Random guess, I'd say the game is like 60-70% playable to players right now, but as the game is larger it's already close to equivalent to Hades 1.
