Last year, Sony and Santa Monica Studio releasedGod of War, which was then one of themost highly anticipated PS4 titles of 2018. Not long after its launch,God of Warsoon became Sony’s best-reviewed PS4 game of all time, after the reboot proved to be both a critical and commercial success.
Now, to celebrate 1 year since the release ofGod of Waron the PS4, Santa Monica Studio has released a free dynamic theme for the PS4, with an avatar set following on Wednesday. Apart from the newest theme being free of charge, it will also be available to all PS4 players, regardless of if they ownGod of War. To download, players must simply login to their PSN account via the PS4 or a web browser and navigate to theGod of Warpage where the download button for theGod of War- Your Journey Awaits Dynamic Theme is located. The process is more or less the same for the free avatar pack, when it becomes available on Wednesday, April 17.
In a post via the PlayStation Blog, Shannon Studstill, head of Santa Monica Studio, took her time to thank all the players who supported the latest installment in theGod of Warfranchise. Studstill also reflected on the intricate process that brought the game to life, after developer Cory Barlog pitched the idea of a father and son narrative.
In honor of you, our fans, we’re starting a week-long celebration of the one-year anniversary of thisGod of War. I’m very happy to indulge you with a small token of our appreciation.
As for what’s next, rumors have already surfaced online that aGod of Warsequel is already in the works.The news came from Kotaku’s Jason Schreier who claimed on a Reddit thread that Santa Monica Studio is already hard at work in developing a follow-up to 2018’sGod of War.
While no official confirmation has been made despite the game’s first anniversary this week, a sequel toGod of Waris inevitable especially after the 2018 reboot was recently awarded asBest Game during the BAFTA awardsa couple of weeks ago. Given thatGod of War’sanniversary week is just starting, it wouldn’t be surprising if Santa Monica Studio is planning to release a teaser for the rumored sequel by the end of the celebration.
