Unleashing the Power of Ragnarok: The Ultimate Enhancement for God of War Game

God of War Ragnarok has exceeded expectations with its captivating storyline and enhanced RPG elements that build on the success of the 2018 soft reboot. Despite being planned as a trilogy, the game doesn't feel rushed and offers a lengthy gameplay experience. However, this has resulted in some fans struggling to find time to complete the game. The future of the franchise remains uncertain, with rumors of an Egyptian setting or an Atreus spin-off. Regardless, God of War remains one of Sony's top first-party titles, and it would be great to see more crossover with other PlayStation IPs, even if it's just small Easter eggs.

God of War Ragnarok's Collectible Poems Are A Great Surprise

During God of War Ragnarok, Kratos and his team embark on various side quests and adventures, uncovering collectibles and earning rewards. However, stumbling upon Kvasir's collectible poems stands out as a unique and rewarding experience. These fourteen poems pay homage to various PlayStation franchises, including Bloodborne, Concrete Genie, and The Last of Us Part 2, among others. The inclusion of these Easter eggs not only caters to veteran PlayStation fans but also reflects God of War Ragnarok's dedication to providing extra touches to enhance the game's immersive experience. It would be interesting to see an updated set in the next God of War, featuring simple artwork or figurines instead of poems. With Kratos' appearance in Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale referenced in a conversation with Mimir, the possibilities for such references seem endless.

Future God of War Entries Should Shout Out More PlayStation Games

Incorporating RPG mechanics and gear into future iterations of God of War would be a natural progression for the franchise. The ability to customize Kratos and his allies not only adds to the gameplay experience, but also allows players to have a measure of control over their appearance. The New Game Plus update for Ragnarok added even more equipment options, providing players with both style and transformative playthroughs. Adding cosmetic items based on other PlayStation franchises would be a great way to expand the game's reach, but it would be important to ensure that the chosen properties fit within the game's ancient setting. Outfits and weapons with referential names and appearances based on main characters would make excellent quest rewards and could help God of War maintain its status as a flagship PlayStation title.

God of War Ragnarok is available now on PS4, and PS5.
