Game news God of War Ragnarok: what if the PS5 and PS4 exclusive was released in the 90s? The game like you’ve never seen it in this video!

Remember. So in the home stretch of its marketing campaign, God of War: Ragnarök offered itself a new promotional trailer as short as it was rhythmic! Even though the excerpt from the PS5 and PS4 exclusive was minimal, it was actually full of ideas. At least for the creative behind the YouTube channel Jackarte who recreated this video to look like the presentation of a game… coming out on the PlayStation, Sony’s first console.

Summary

  • New Adventures of Kratos and Atreus Awaken Inspiration
  • God of War: Ragnarök on PS1, it would look like this!

New Adventures of Kratos and Atreus Awaken Inspiration

Currently, God of War: Ragnarok marks the history of playstation5 by becoming one of the biggest hits of the last machine from the Japanese manufacturer. And, more generally, the God of War license! Unfortunately for him, and even if he offers himself a divine launch, there’s another PlayStation exclusive whose popularity overshadows it. However, maybe it would not have been the same story at another time. Impossible to know. However, what we can imagine is what the sequel to the 2018 reboot could have looked like if it had been released on the first console of the Japanese publisher.

That’s good because that’s exactly what the YouTuber of the Jackarte channel asked himself.. Decidedly, the new adventure of Kratos and Atreus is reimagined in all sauces since the official release. As a token of their support, the other structures that are part of PlayStation Studios, such as Naughty Dog or Sucker Punch, offered the Santa Monica Studio teams some artworks of God of War: Ragnarök by giving them their respective style. Today, it is another form of creation since Jackarte did not call on his drawing skills but on his talent as an expert in “demake”!

God of War: Ragnarök on PS1, it would look like this!

For a few years now, we’ve come across the term “remake” more and more when it comes to a title that brings an older game back to life, like The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening or even of Final Fantasy VII Remake. Conversely, we have seen the development of another practice which is that of “demake” and which the Jackarte channel is now offering us for the trailer of God of War: Ragnarok. The idea is to recreate the sequence as if it had been created, in reality, for an earlier machine: namely, the PlayStation. It’s a safe bet that even at the time of Sony’s first console, this second part will also have been a hit!

Fans of large polygons will be amused by this work which allows us to imagine the rendering of the game, as if it had been released almost thirty years ago.. Jackarte therefore resumed the crossing of the lake in a sleigh, Freya’s assault on Kratos, Kratos’ frantic race, the sudden visit of a mysterious character, the adventures in the company of Tyr as well as the appearance of Thor to give him the form of a cutscene from Sony’s first console. And he even thought of including the iconic PlayStation game launch sound at the very beginning of his video for a good dose of nostalgia.. In short, it is to be seen just above and you can even compare with the famous trailer from which it is inspired at the top of the article!
