During this week, Sony unveiled the release date for the reboot of God of War. From April 20, fans of the epic hack ‘n’ slash series will be able to explore a brutal, sprawling realm of Norse deities and mythical beasts.
Alongside this reveal came lots of controversy surrounding a possible downgrade for the title due to certain alterations in the trailer. Luckily one of the artists for the game confirmed to a fan that there was, in fact, no downgrade. Rather games will understand why the trailer looks different in the context of the game.
O que mudou foi apenas a direção da luz e fog, esse pedaço da E3 está no jogo mas diferente, vcs vão entender quando jogar. A Jormungandr, Kratos e Atreus continuam exatamente iguais a dos trailers, estão comparando com outras cenas e luzes. Estou rindo vendo os comntários 🙂
