God of War to Receive Free Patch for the PS5

Get ready to enjoy the full God of War experience for the next generation

God of War to Receive Free Patch for the PS5
ByBayani AcebedoFebruary 02, 2021

God of War (2018) is receiving a new patch to optimize the game for the PlayStation 5. While fans wait for the release of God of War: Ragnarok, Santa Monica Studios is going to release a fix that would allow players to fully enjoy the game to the full range of the PS5’s ability.

As announced by Santa Monica Studios, Feb. 2 will see the release of a free patch that “replaces the current video graphics mode option with a new default setting that will offer the best of both performance and resolution to our PlayStation 5 players!”

Features of the ‘Enhanced Performance Experience’ are listed:

  • Syncs to 60 FPS
  • 4K Checkerboard Resolution
  • 2160p

Of course, players can still opt to select the ‘Original Performance Experience’ which will offer 4K Checkerboard Resolution, but synced to 30 FPS.

While we have yet to get a release date for God of War: Ragnarok, this patch should get everyone hyped up for the return of Kratos and Atreus; at the same time, it could also be a great jumping point for fans who are new to the franchise.

From Santa Monica Studio and creative director Cory Barlog comes a new beginning for one of gaming’s most recognizable icons. Living as a man outside the shadow of the gods, Kratos must adapt to unfamiliar lands, unexpected threats, and a second chance at being a father. Together with his son Atreus, the pair will venture into the brutal Norse wilds and fight to fulfill a deeply personal quest.

God of War is now available exclusively for the PlayStation. See what else is in store for the PS5 in our list of Upcoming PS5 Games.
