God of War Ragnarok 20th Anniversary Update: Patch Notes Reveal Dark Odyssey Collection

Celebrate the 20th anniversary of the iconic God of War franchise with the latest update to God of War Ragnarök, version 06.02, which includes the exciting Dark Odyssey Collection. Santa Monica Studio has released the comprehensive patch notes for this celebratory update, detailing the new Dark Odyssey cosmetics for Kratos, Atreus, and Freya, along with revamped appearances for all of Kratos' godly weaponry. This fantastic bundle is available now at no additional cost, making it a must-have for fans eager to dive into the Norse saga.

In addition to the Norse-themed enhancements, this update introduces a new "Edit Appearance" feature, allowing players to customize their favorite looks without compromising the unique abilities and skills of each armor set. Whether you're experiencing Kratos' epic battles against Thor and Odin for the first time or revisiting the adventure, now is the perfect moment to jump back into God of War Ragnarök on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, or PC.

While the Dark Odyssey Collection offers a rich selection of cosmetic options that will delight long-time fans, some were hoping for more from Santa Monica Studio's 20th-anniversary celebration. When the update was initially announced, there were calls for modern remasters of classics like God of War, God of War 2, and God of War 3. However, no such plans have been confirmed yet, leaving fans to wonder what the future holds for these beloved titles.

Nonetheless, along with other exciting announcements such as new merchandise and vinyl releases, Sony continues to show its commitment to keeping God of War enthusiasts engaged. As you download the God of War Ragnarök 20th Anniversary Update, consider reading about why we believe the series should reinvent itself for its next chapter.
