The latest update for *God of War Ragnarök*, version 06.02, has arrived just in time to celebrate the franchise's 20th anniversary. The patch notes, released by Santa Monica Studio, detail the exciting additions in the Dark Odyssey Collection, which includes new cosmetic options for Kratos, Atreus, and Freya, along with revamped appearances for all of the God of War's iconic weapons. This content-rich update is available to all players at no extra cost, enhancing the gaming experience with a nod to the series' storied history.

One of the standout features of this update is the new "Edit Appearance" option, allowing players to customize the look of their armor without affecting its abilities and skills. This means you can tailor Kratos, Atreus, and Freya's appearances to your liking, making your journey through the Norse realms even more personal. Whether you're embarking on this epic adventure for the first time or revisiting the saga, now is an excellent time to dive into *God of War Ragnarök* on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, or PC.

While the Dark Odyssey Collection offers a wealth of cosmetic options that will delight long-time fans, it's worth noting that some had hoped for remasters of earlier titles like *God of War*, *God of War 2*, and *God of War 3* to mark the 20th anniversary. However, Santa Monica Studio has not announced any plans for such remasters. Despite this, the studio, along with Sony, continues to engage the community with new merchandise and vinyl releases, ensuring that the God of War legacy remains vibrant. As you update to the God of War Ragnarök 20th Anniversary Update, consider reading about why we believe 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.
