Just four months after release, God of War now gives players their biggest update yet. Sharpen your axe and get your boy ready as you restart your journey in New Game Plus while retaining all the weapons, armors, talismans, enchantments, and most importantly – the skills that you’ve unlocked. Additionally, there are new customizations to make your old gears better and stronger. This new weapon tier requires you to collect a certain new resource called Skap Slag before you can craft it.

Skipping cutscenes
Though God of War gives some of the most amazing cinematic cutscenes, with the latest update, you may skip the cutscenes. For those who are just starting up the game, it is advisable to sit back and enjoy the show. But if this isn’t your first rodeo, this option will greatly speed up your gameplay.
