God of War Ragnarok Celebrates Franchise's 20-Year Anniversary With Dark Odyssey Cosmetic Update Next Week
Sony and Santa Monica Studio have unveiled the "Dark Odyssey" collection, a free update for God of War Ragnarök arriving next week. This update features in-game equipment themed after one of the franchise's most iconic outfits, a stylish black-and-gold aesthetic.
Detailed in a PlayStation Blog post, the Dark Odyssey collection is a major highlight of Sony's God of War 20th-anniversary celebrations. Available for both PlayStation 5 and PC players, it includes cosmetic sets for Kratos, Atreus, and Freya, along with matching appearances and attachments for various weapons and shields.
The centerpiece is a Kratos appearance and armor set reminiscent of a skin previously only obtainable by completing God of War II on God Mode. Players can acquire this content from any Lost Items chest in the main game or instantly in the game's Valhalla mode after the update launches on March 20th. The update also introduces the ability to customize Kratos' weapon appearances without affecting their abilities.

Sony's plans also include social media assets (downloadable [here]), an art showcase in collaboration with Los Angeles' Gallery Nucleus, new merchandise, sales, multiple vinyl releases, and more.
"On behalf of everyone at Santa Monica Studio, we are immeasurably grateful to have had the chance to build the legacy of this series with and for you, the fans of God of War," the studio stated.
