The God of War Ragnarök update version 06.02 patch notes are here to celebrate the franchise's monumental 20th anniversary with the introduction of the Dark Odyssey Collection. Santa Monica Studio has released the full patch notes, detailing an exciting array of content that's available at no extra cost. This update brings the Dark Odyssey cosmetics for Kratos, Atreus, and Freya, along with a fresh look for all of God of War's iconic weaponry, making it a must-have bundle for fans.

Among the Norse-themed additions in this latest update, players can now utilize a new "Edit Appearance" feature. This option lets you customize your characters' looks without compromising the armor's specific abilities and skills. Whether you're diving into the battle against Thor and Odin for the first time or revisiting the sequel, now's the perfect moment to jump back into the action on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, or PC.

While the Dark Odyssey Collection enriches Kratos' arsenal with stunning cosmetic options, some fans had hoped for more from Santa Monica Studio's 20th-anniversary celebration. Following last week's update announcement, there were calls for modern remasters of classics like God of War, God of War 2, and God of War 3. However, no such plans have been confirmed yet, leaving fans to enjoy the current offerings and look forward to future announcements.

Alongside the in-game updates, Sony is keeping the God of War community engaged with new merchandise and vinyl releases. As you download the God of War Ragnarök 20th Anniversary Update, take a moment to consider why the series might need to reinvent itself for its next outing.

[Game Version 06.02]

As a special gift to all God of War Ragnarök owners, the Dark Odyssey collection is now accessible in-game at no additional cost!

Inspired by the original working name of God of War (2005) and the iconic skin from God of War II, which was a reward for beating the game on God Mode difficulty, we've reintroduced the black and gold theme for this anniversary celebration.
