Forums - Gaming Discussion - PS4: God of War: Ascension Remastered Still In Development (RUMOUR)

God of War 3 Remastered was officially announced by Sony yesterday during an event celebrating the 10th anniversary of the series.

This announcement came as a surprise as earlier rumors had suggested a God of War: Ascension Remaster for the PS4, but that rumor has yet to be confirmed.

Industry Insider Shinobi602, who had leaked the God of War: Ascension rumor, clarified that God of War: Ascension is still happening for the PS4, and that he was not aware that Sony was planning to remaster God of War 3 as well.

The person I spoke to about that works at a Sony studio, however I no longer have contact with him unfortunately. In a metrics listing, “GOW: A – PS4″ was listed, so I was a bit surprised GOW3 was remastered first. I spoke to another individual earlier today after the announcement to do some fact checking and it turns out Ascension remaster is supposedly still a thing but coming separately later.

Shinobi added that the Remaster took more work than anticipated, and as a result, they couldn’t do both at the same time.

Yea no problem, and I agree as I said the same thing. Apparently remastering them was a bit more intensive than initially planned so couldn’t do them at the same time.

This is still a rumor as for now so take it with a grain of salt. Such a remaster shouldn’t be surprising though, given the track record of Sony remastering PS3 games for the PS4.

Interesting. I wonder how much will each be priced.



Why not a collection with all God of War games.....

I agree, but the first two games are pretty low res, and would need totally redoing.... and by the sounds of it from the OP, it sounds like it was a lot of hassle to upgrade 3/A .



Making an indie game : Dead of Day!

I'm not buying any of them seeing as I already have them on PS3, but not making a HD Collection of sorts, like the ones they released on PS3 with the PS2 and PSP games in high definition, is a bit of nickel and diming. Then again, no one is forced to buy anything, so there's not much to complain.

The first two God of War titles are still the best I think. 3 is great for the sense of scale and Ascension... poor Ascension.

But God of War 3 Remastered is for the people who haven't played God of War 3 on Playstation 3. And when they haven't played God of War 3 yet, it is very possible that they also haven't played God of War 1 + 2.



Would have been very cool to remaster God of War: Ascensions multiplayer component and include it with God of War 3 Remastered... No need to remaster GoW:A's single player campaign tbh.



This is ridiculous. These games dont need remasters. Santa monica should focus on the next entry and if they going to makie remasters, at least make worthwhile ones, like the PSP games.



I'll grab them when they release the "God of war remastered collection". If they are seriously doing this then this is a terrible cash grab. You can get a 5 game God of war collection on ps3 quite cheaply....
Same goes for dmc and dmc4. They should have been in the same package.

They aren't doing them, another team is working on the GoW 3 remaster and likely this one aswell (if it's actually being done).



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.
