In case you haven’t been keeping up, Sony Santa Monica has been busy celebrating the success of 2018’s God of War with a bunch of stuff. One of the cool things is “Raising Kratos”, a documentary covering the five-year journey of the game. And hey, it’s available now for free!
Clocking in at just under two hours, this is definitely not a fluff piece. Here’s the synopsis for the doc:
“‘Raising Kratos’ documents the five-year, herculean effort to reinvent one of the greatest stories in gaming, God of War. Facing an unknown future, Santa Monica Studio took a massive risk, fundamentally changing their beloved franchise and re-establishing their rightful place in video game history. More than just a “making of,” this cinematic journey of second chances rooted in family, sacrifice, struggle, and doubt follows game director Cory Barlog and those who chase perfection in art and storytelling. Witness the incredible defeats, the unpredictable outcomes and the down-to-the-wire tension on full display in this true-life redemption story.”
God of War is out now on PlayStation 4. If you haven’t yet played the BAFTA award winner yet, you really should.
