While at first, it may look like there are only six weapons in Hades, you can unlock four aspects for each weapon, which essentially changes the mechanics of each weapon and how it looks as well. This translates to the game having 24 weapons, which you can unlock as you progress through the game. You can combine these weapons with a number of boons you get from the members of the Greek Pantheon, and each run can vary wildly.
It is worth pointing out that unlocking all 24 weapons can be difficult, and you may not use different strategies/tactics to unlock every aspect. You will need to meet specific requirements to unlock each aspect, and some of them are quite challenging to acquire. Once you have unlocked every weapon in Hades using Chthonic Keys and have collected at least one Titan Blood, the aspects become available to be unlocked on the next run. While most weapon aspects in Hades can be unlocked with Titan Blood, each weapon also has a fourth aspect which can only be used once a series of requirements are met.
