God of War Ragnarok 20th Anniversary Update: Patch 06.02 Details Dark Odyssey Collection

The God of War Ragnarök update version 06.02 patch notes are here, and they're helping to celebrate the franchise's 20th anniversary with a deep dive into the new Dark Odyssey Collection. Santa Monica Studio has released comprehensive patch notes detailing the exciting content included in this celebratory update. The Dark Odyssey cosmetics for Kratos, Atreus, and Freya, along with revamped appearances for all of God of War's iconic weapons, make up a compelling package that's now available to players at no additional cost.

Beyond the Norse-themed treasures in this latest update, players can now enjoy a new "Edit Appearance" feature. This option lets you mix and match your favorite looks without compromising the unique abilities and skills of each armor set. Whether you're new to the game, revisiting Kratos' battles against Thor and Odin, or diving back in for another round, this update makes it an ideal time to jump into God of War Ragnarök on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, or PC.

While the Dark Odyssey Collection certainly offers a wealth of cosmetic options that should delight long-time fans, some were hoping for more from Santa Monica Studio's 20th-anniversary celebration. When the update was first announced, there were calls for modern remasters of classics like God of War, God of War 2, and God of War 3. Unfortunately, no such plans have been confirmed, and there's no indication that they're in the works, at least not yet.

Nevertheless, alongside other anniversary treats like new merchandise and vinyl releases, it's clear that Sony is committed to keeping God of War fans engaged for years to come. As you download the God of War Ragnarök 20th Anniversary Update, take a moment to explore why we believe the series needs to reinvent itself for its next chapter.

God of War Ragnarök Update 06.02 Patch Notes:

[Game Version 06.02]

As a gift to all God of War Ragnarök owners, the Dark Odyssey collection is now available in-game at no extra charge! Inspired by the working title of God of War (2005) and the skin that was originally a reward for completing God of War II on God Mode difficulty, we've revived the iconic black and gold theme for this anniversary celebration.
