It seems that the original God of War game for PS2 will be added soon to the classic PS Plus game library according to the latest leaks.
This was spotted today by a user on Reddit, where an image of the original Kratos appears among the PS2 games on the monthly service page as shown in the image below. It is worth noting that none of the original God of War games are currently available on the monthly service at the time of writing this news.
The appearance of the original Kratos image may be a clear indication that the game is coming to the PS Plus Premium game library in the upcoming batch expected to be available around mid-November 2024. However, we hope not to wait too long as was the case with the game Dino Crisis, which appeared over a year before it became available through the service this month.
Just a few days ago, rumors surfaced about Sony’s intention to re-release the original parts of the series in an enhanced Remastered version at some point next year in 2025. According to these leaks from reliable sources, the collection will be called God of War Greek Saga Remastered and will include 6 classic parts:
- God of War
- God of War II
- God of War III
- God of War: Chains of Olympus
- God of War: Ghost of Sparta
- God of War: Ascension
According to the same source, the Remastered collection is being developed by the original Santa Monica team in addition to the Nixxes Software team, and the release date is currently awaited for the first showcase to be published soon.
It is unknown if the appearance of the game on the PS Plus Premium game library page is related to this announcement or if it is something separate. Also, there is no official confirmation from Sony or even Santa Monica Studio regarding the validity of the rumored Remastered version.
Stay tuned for more details as any new updates arise.
