Celebrate the 20th anniversary of the God of War franchise with the latest update for God of War Ragnarök, version 06.02. Santa Monica Studio has released comprehensive patch notes detailing the exciting additions in the Dark Odyssey Collection, available now at no extra cost. This update brings a range of Norse-themed cosmetics for Kratos, Atreus, and Freya, along with refreshed appearances for all of Kratos' godly weapons. It's the perfect time to dive back into the game, whether you're on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, or PC.
The Dark Odyssey Collection includes a variety of cosmetic options that pay homage to the series' history. Kratos can now don the Dark Odyssey Armor Set, complete with the Dark Odyssey Breastplate, Bracers, and Belt. Atreus and Freya also receive new looks with the Dark Odyssey Vestment and Witch Frock, respectively. Additionally, the collection features updated appearances for Kratos' weapons, including the Leviathan Axe, Blades of Chaos, and Draupnir Spear, each with their own unique Dark Odyssey attachments. The update also introduces new shield appearances, such as the Guardian Shield, Dauntless Shield, and more, all adorned with the iconic black and gold theme.
A standout feature of this update is the new "Edit Appearance" option, allowing players to customize their gear's look without affecting its abilities and skills. This means you can mix and match your favorite aesthetics while maintaining the functionality of your chosen armor and weapons. Whether you're facing Thor and Odin for the first time or revisiting the epic battles, this update enhances your gameplay experience with its rich customization options.
While the Dark Odyssey Collection has thrilled many fans, some were hoping for modern remasters of earlier titles like God of War, God of War 2, and God of War 3. Although no such plans have been announced, Santa Monica Studio continues to engage the community with new merchandise and vinyl releases, ensuring that the God of War legacy remains vibrant. As you download the God of War Ragnarök 20th Anniversary Update, consider exploring why we think the series needs to reinvent itself for its next outing.
