As a devoted fan with a decade-long love affair with Kratos and his blood-soaked journey through the realms of Greek and Norse mythology, I can’t help but be thrilled by the prospect of remastered God of War games. The thought of revisiting the brutal battles of the original trilogy in crisp, next-gen glory is enough to make my heart race.
According to the latest whispers, it’s being suggested that the initial three installments of the God of War series might receive an upgrade. However, the specifics about these possible upgrades are still hazy, and they likely won’t undergo a complete overhaul like the Norse God of War epic did. But, there’s definitely room for Sony to bring some exciting, unexpected twists to these games.
Undeniably, if the speculated remasters come to fruition, they might significantly enhance visual quality and technical aspects. Porting older God of War games to PS5 would allow for superior VFX, higher resolutions, smoother frame rates, and modern graphical features such as high-resolution textures and extended draw distance. However, the challenge lies in determining how these remasters could potentially modify the gameplay or stories of these cherished classics. Possibilities include introducing new weapons, alternate control options, additional cutscenes, dialogues, or even expanding on the mechanical and narrative elements present in the original games. Such changes are more ambitious and could potentially be misguided, but adding fresh content could positively impact the original trilogy and the God of War series overall.
As a passionate fan, I’ve been buzzing with excitement ever since the chatter about the beloved God of War series getting a facelift started. It all began when Lunatic Ignus set Twitter ablaze, hinting that it might not be Santa Monica Studios, but instead Nixxes Software, who could potentially be the masterminds behind this remastering project.
The God of War Remasters Could Link the Greek and Norse Sagas
It’s Still Unclear How Kratos Wound Up in Scandinavia
Following the dramatic turn of events in God of War 3, Kratos appears to have perished by impaling himself with the Blade of Olympus, driving it into his own body. However, a scene after the credits subtly hints at his survival, as a trail of blood is traced from where he “died” to the edge of the platform. Although we wouldn’t fully understand how Kratos survived until God of War in 2018, the game doesn’t delve deeply into the specifics of this survival.
In God of War, the transition of Kratos from Greek mythology to Scandinavian lore is largely open to interpretation due to the missing years between his battles in Greece and his life in a new land. These years are mostly defined through Kratos’ relationships with Faye and Atreus. This vague backstory fits the series’ intent to reboot Kratos, and it’s easy enough to accept the mythological change. However, understanding the unexplained time-gap could add depth to the storyline.
God of War’s Remasters Could Link the Greek and Norse Sagas, But They Shouldn’t Go Overboard
It would be engaging and beneficial to viewers if we delve into how Kratos ended up in Scandinavia, even with a brief overview. For example, an after-credits scene could portray an injured Kratos crawling across Europe, hinting at his struggle with the fatal wound from the Blade of Olympus. Another option, or perhaps supplementary, is to clarify the intricate timeline of God of War by featuring scenes where Kratos arrives in the Norse lands. This would help establish how long he resided there—evidence within the game suggests it might have been over a century before the beginning of 2018’s God of War.
Instead of delving too deeply into scenes or details beyond the hypothetical, or perhaps finding a few hidden references (Easter eggs), it might be wiser to steer clear. The God of War series has an intriguing allure that not only sparks curiosity but also keeps the story cohesive. Exploring the connection between the series’ portrayals of Norse and Greek mythology too extensively could lead to confronting inconsistencies, such as concurrent creation stories, which might be difficult to reconcile. Maintaining a certain level of ambiguity helps prevent these complex issues from arising.
