If you thought God of War series was done for after 2022’s grand finale in God of War: Ragnarok, you couldn’t have been more wrong. Just last month we received a huge free Valhalla DLC for the game which provided gamers with unlimited hours of rogue-lite gameplay, 6 hours of main story, and 12 achievable trophies. While fans are still enjoying the Valhalla DLC, we are already receiving some new exciting reports about the future of the IP.
Is God of War OG Trilogy Getting A PS5 Remaster?
Rumors have it that the original Greek trilogy of God of War series is all set to receive a PS5 remaster. As you may be aware, GOW (2005) and God of War 2 have had no remasters ever since PS4 arrived, however, God of War 3 does have a PS4 Remaster. Owing to PS5’s backwards compatibility, gamers can technically play the PS4 version of GOW3 on PS5, however its not the same as playing a PS5 Remaster. As it happens, now the entire original trilogy is set to receive a PS5 Remaster and this is a big news for the new gen God of War fans.
I myself have never had the privilege of playing the first two God of War games as I never owned a PS back then. However, the remaster would give a lot of fans like me, a chance to experience the gameplay and story we’ve seen countless times on Youtube, first hand! The information comes from industry insider Nick Baker of Xbox Era, who stated about hearing of the original GOW trilogy remastered on PlayStation.
“I, for a long time, have been a person who has bemoaned the direction GOW went somewhat, and have yearned for the hack-and-slash OG God of War games. I just love them so much. I told a friend of mine who also loves the OG God of War trilogy that this might be happening, then they got very excited. And I’ve heard that we might be getting the original GOW trilogy remastered on PlayStation,” Baker said (via GGRecon).
This isn’t too surprising, given Sony has now released remasters of The Last Of Us, Marvel’s Spider-Man, Ghost Of Tsushima, and the Uncharted trilogy etc. Also, God of War Ragnarok: Valhalla consisted a lot of Greek mythology related content which gave us a teaser of how things could look like a well done remaster. So, as for the believability of this information, the insider is quite reliable and honestly, there’s no specific reason one would doubt it. It is not just possible but highly probable.
GOW Ragnarok: Valhalla is now available to play for free for anyone who owns the game.
