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

The God of War Ragnarök update version 06.02 patch notes have arrived, perfectly timed to celebrate the franchise's 20th anniversary. This update introduces the exciting Dark Odyssey Collection, offering a range of new content that fans can enjoy at no extra cost.

Santa Monica Studio has revealed comprehensive patch notes, detailing the new Dark Odyssey cosmetics for Kratos, Atreus, and Freya, as well as refreshed appearances for all the iconic weapons in the God of War series. This update is a fantastic bundle of content that enhances the gaming experience without any additional fees.

Alongside these Norse-themed additions, the update introduces a new "Edit Appearance" feature. This customization option allows players to select their preferred looks for Kratos' gear without compromising the unique abilities and skills of each armor set. Whether you're embarking on the epic journey for the first time or revisiting the battle against Thor and Odin, now is an ideal time to dive into the sequel on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, or PC.

The Dark Odyssey Collection enriches Kratos' arsenal with a variety of cosmetic options, sure to delight long-time fans of the series. However, some enthusiasts had hoped for more from Santa Monica Studio's 20th-anniversary celebration. Following the update announcement, there were calls for modern remasters of classics like God of War, God of War 2, and God of War 3. Unfortunately, no such plans have been confirmed yet.

Despite this, the update, combined with other exciting releases like new merchandise and vinyls, demonstrates Sony's commitment to keeping the God of War community engaged and entertained. As you download the God of War Ragnarök 20th Anniversary Update, consider exploring why we believe the series should reinvent itself for its next installment.

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.
