Is Hades a 2.5D Game?

[aragoN]

My friends and I are discussing in wich dimension this Game is.

One of them says that it is a 2D Game the other one says that it is a 3D game.
I heard that there are 2.5D Games. Is Hades a 2.5D Game?

It is an isometric game. A quick copy paste from Wikipedia:

"Isometric video game graphics are graphics employed in video games and pixel art which angle the viewpoint to reveal facets of the environment that would not be visible from a top-down perspective or side view, thereby producing a three-dimensional effect. ... The terms "3/4 perspective", "2.5D", and "pseudo-3D" are also sometimes used, although these terms can possess slightly different meanings in other contexts."

Hades is a 2D game with no real-time 3D rendering. That means every single frame of Zagreus animation exists as a unique image.
