A standout feature of this update is the introduction of the "Edit Appearance" option. This customization tool allows players to mix and match their preferred looks while preserving the unique abilities and skills of each armor set. Whether you're embarking on your first journey through the realms or returning to face Thor and Odin again, this is the perfect time to dive back into God of War Ragnarök, available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC.
The Dark Odyssey Collection enriches Kratos' arsenal with a variety of cosmetic options inspired by the series' history, sure to delight long-time fans. However, some had anticipated more from Santa Monica Studio's 20th-anniversary celebration. When the update was initially announced, there were calls for remasters of classics like God of War, God of War 2, and God of War 3. No such plans have been confirmed yet, leaving fans hopeful for future announcements.
Beyond the in-game content, the anniversary festivities include new merchandise and vinyl releases, demonstrating Sony's commitment to keeping the God of War community engaged and entertained.
