Santa Monica Studio has released the patch notes for the God of War Ragnarök update version 06.02, marking the franchise's 20th anniversary with the introduction of the Dark Odyssey Collection. This update brings a host of new content, including special Dark Odyssey cosmetics for Kratos, Atreus, and Freya, alongside updated visuals for all of God of War's iconic weaponry. This comprehensive bundle is now available for all players at no additional cost, making it a fantastic addition to the game.
In addition to the Norse-themed content, the latest update introduces a new "Edit Appearance" feature. This customization option allows players to select their preferred aesthetics for armor without compromising the specific abilities and skills associated with each piece. Whether you're embarking on your first journey through God of War Ragnarök or revisiting the epic tale, this is an ideal time to dive in, regardless of whether you're playing on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, or PC.
While the Dark Odyssey Collection enriches the game with a variety of cosmetic options that are sure to delight long-time fans, some had hoped for more substantial celebrations for the franchise's 20th anniversary. Following the update announcement, there was a call for modern remasters of earlier titles such as God of War, God of War 2, and God of War 3. However, no such plans have been disclosed yet, leaving fans to wonder what might be in store for the future of the series.
Despite the absence of remasters, Sony continues to engage the God of War community with other exciting offerings, such as new merchandise and vinyl releases. As you download the God of War Ragnarök 20th Anniversary Update, take a moment to read about why we believe the series should evolve for its next installment.
