God of War Fans, brace yourselves; rumors suggest that this year’s State of Play event may reveal a remaster of the original God of War trilogy on February 12, 2025.
Anniversary Surprise: A Remaster for God of War?
If true, this could bring these legendary titles to PlayStation 5 consoles, allowing newer players to experience the games for the first time on contemporary devices and giving OG players an opportunity to relieve this outstanding classic all over again.
Sony announced the blog post: “State of Play is back tomorrow, February 12! Tune in live for news and updates on great games coming to PS5. The show celebrates a creative and unique selection of exciting games from studios around the world.
The 40+ minute show begins February 12 at 2 pm PT / 5 pm ET | 11 pm CET / February 13 at 7 am JST on YouTube and Twitch and will be broadcast in English and Japanese. See you tomorrow!”
The relevant rumor also surfaced in 2024; an insider revealed that multiple God of War games are being remastered. The rumor also suggested that PlayStation aims to create remaster versions for new hardware.
Interestingly, God of War is going to celebrate the 20th anniversary this year, a major milestone, enhancing the Chances that Sony may do something special like announcements to make this moment more fascinating.
The God of War is an ever-green action-adventure series that follows a warrior named Kratos, who is known for encountering gods and monsters in Greek and Norse mythology.
The GOW 1 was released in 2001 on PS 2, then GOW 2 made its way in 2007 on the same platform, and lastly, the third part was released in 2010 on PS 3 and its remastered version on PS 4.
What’s in Store for God of War Fans This February?
Since then, players have been hoping that Sony may launch them on new consoles, on PS 5, so they can enjoy their favorite titles with improved experience. The leak has been shared by a Reddit user (they also claimed about the release date of another title)
It suggests that the State of Play event may include an announcement for a God of War anthology that would bring all these three games. Fans are anticipating which game might be included in the potential remastered collection.
Undoubtedly, the trio comes on top, and the remaster could also bring games like Chains of Olympus and Ghost of Sparta or some other title pertinent to the God of War series.
Some have to say that this new God of War game could be a prequel (mentioned by GameRant), letting players dive into the events that took place before the trilogy. Right now, the details are vague, and nothing has been shared, but it seems that the collection could launch on new consoles and PC.
While details are still scarce, it seems likely that this collection would not only appear on the PlayStation 5 but could eventually make its way to PC as well. Given the growing trend of bringing PlayStation exclusives to PC, it’s not far-fetched to think that these iconic games could be enjoyed on multiple platforms.
Fans are keeping all eyes on the event to know what it will bring to the table.
