New God of War: Chains of Olympus Info - Cave of Eos

PSP News from N4G | God of War: Chains of Olympus

PSP - God of War: Chains of Olympus - New God of War: Chains of Olympus Info - Cave of Eos

Loot Ninja just got an email from Sony with some new info on God of War: Chains of Olympus for the PSP. Ru Weerasuriya, the game's director, shred some light on Eos, the Goddess of Dawn. Eos is one of the first helpful characters in the game, and the Cave of Eos is the level that players will get to battle their way into to get her help to progress in the game.

"God of War is a mix of cool elements that together make up an amazing franchise. From the story elements to the visceral combat, from the challenge to the epic visuals, it immerses the player into a world they want to keep coming back to. We keep this all in mind when creating any God of War level, such as the Cave of Eos in God of War: Chains of Olympus. In this level, the player is introduced to Eos, the Goddess of Dawn. She will reveal events of the story that will lead you further in your quest, but getting to her is no easy task. You will have to defeat a multitude of enemies to progress, one of which is a new take on a God of War classic, the blood-lusting Minotaur. The rewards awaiting you are a new magic granted by Eos that adds to the vast array of mechanics Kratos already possesses. But to advance to the end of the level, Kratos will have to prove himself by using his new abilities to solve a challenge so deadly it could have only been created by the Gods of Olympus."

Aug 22, 2007 Can Sony transpose the awesomeness of the God of War series on PS2 to PSP? Well, let's hope so. But why not form an early opinion based off these brand new screens?

Sony talks God of War III

PSP News | God of War: Chains of Olympus

Surely Sony Computer Entertainment would be mad not to bring its flagship gore-fest God of War to the PlayStation 3 - and if the latest hints are anything to go by, the Santa Monica studio is at least considering it. "There's definitely the enthusiasm of us wanting to do that, to make the God of War III," series director Cory Barlog told ShackNews, "but there's obviously no commitment to that right now." Right, so officially they're not working on it but that doesn't stop him offering ... » Read More

God of War Betrayal dialed in

PSP News | God of War: Chains of Olympus

The big problem with cell phone games is that they tend to be designed for non-gamers. Sure, we know there are probably a zillion more copies of Snake out there slithering around on cell phones than there are Gears of War spinning in 360s, but that doesn't mean Snake doesn't suck. However, that may all be about to change with the release of God of War Betrayal, the first mobile game we've seen that actually had us pricing a new phone. Slated to hit this June for Verizon customers and in July ... » Read More

God of War PSP - first movie

PSP News | God of War: Chains of Olympus

The first evidence of a PSP outing for bald-headed blood spiller Kratos has appeared in the form of a teaser trailer. Titled God of War: Chains of Olympus and developed by Ready at Dawn (the people behind the really rather good PSP title, Daxter ), the brief snippet reveals that all the signature gore, lavish combos and weapon-based brutality are present, which should help make this portable adventure every bit as gratifying as its PS2 quests. While we're waiting for official details about ... » Read More

God of War: Chains of Olympus for PSP

PSP News | God of War: Chains of Olympus

Sony Computer Entertainment appears to have dropped the name of Kratos' ultra-violent PSP outing, God of War: Chains of Olympus. The news comes from super-secret marketing site Island of Rhodes, which seems to have spelled out the entire title of the mysterious God of War game. We're assuming Chains of Olympus is the much-touted PSP series entry, because we can't really see a 'III' fitting on the end of that logo - though the third, PS3 entry is undoubtedly under construction. We'll let you ... » Read More

PSP: GOW November 1

PSP News from N4G | God of War: Chains of Olympus

PSP - God of War: Chains of Olympus - PSP: GOW November 1

May the Gods of Gaming be good. PSP996(Member of QJ) was able to show its direction: Gamestop has God of War dated.Now if you're familiar with how these "Gamestop release dates" go, you'd know that this doesn't always automatically confirm anything.
In any case, the plus side is, what "November 1" shows us is a possible time frame when we can expect the game to come. A possible tentative time frame, if you want to be more cautious about it.

God of War confirmed for PSP, hinted for PS3

PSP News | God of War: Chains of Olympus

Few games are so eagerly anticipated that retailers order 1.1 million copies to have ready and waiting on day one - but few games enable you to rip the eyeball from a cyclops ocular socket with your bare hands like God of War II does, so perhaps its no shock after all. It should also come as little surprise that Game Director Cory Barlog confirmed at a press conference today that a PSP God of War is definitely in the works. The developer wasnt announced, but given the fact that Daxter ... » Read More
