God of War Ragnarok 20th Anniversary: Patch 06.02 Details Dark Odyssey Collection

Celebrate the 20th anniversary of the God of War franchise with the latest update for God of War Ragnarök, version 06.02, which introduces the exciting Dark Odyssey Collection. Santa Monica Studio has released detailed patch notes, showcasing the new content that awaits players. The update includes a range of Dark Odyssey cosmetics for Kratos, Atreus, and Freya, along with stunning new appearances for all of Kratos' iconic weaponry. This robust update is now available at no additional cost, making it a must-have for every fan.

In addition to the Norse-themed additions, the update brings a new "Edit Appearance" feature, allowing players to customize their characters' looks without impacting the abilities and skills of their chosen armor. Whether you're diving into the game for the first time or revisiting the epic battles against Thor and Odin, this is the perfect moment to jump into God of War Ragnarök, available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC.

While the Dark Odyssey Collection enriches Kratos' wardrobe with a variety of cosmetic options that are sure to delight long-time fans, some were hoping for more substantial announcements for the franchise’s 20th anniversary. Last week's update announcement sparked discussions among fans, with many calling for modern remasters of classics like God of War, God of War 2, and God of War 3. However, Santa Monica Studio has not yet confirmed plans for such reimaginings.

Despite the absence of remasters, the future looks bright with additional bonuses such as new merchandise and vinyl releases, indicating Sony's commitment to keeping the God of War community engaged. As you download the God of War Ragnarök 20th Anniversary Update, consider reading about why we think the series needs to reinvent itself for its next outing.

[Game Version 06.02]

As a gift to everyone who owns God of War Ragnarök, the Dark Odyssey collection is now available in-game at no additional cost!

Inspired by the working name of God of War (2005) and the skin that originally appeared in God of War II as a reward for beating the game on God Mode difficulty, we have brought back the black and gold theme for the anniversary.
