God of War Trilogy Remake to Feature New Combat System, Kratos Voice Actor Teases

Expert Verified By

New Content For The Remakes Also Expected!

Story Highlight
  • Christopher Judge says that the God of War trilogy remakes will feature a brand-new combat system.
  • Other than that, he states new technology and additional content for the remakes.
  • TC Carson is set to return as Kratos’ voice actor for these games.

The long-awaited God of War trilogy remake was just recently officially announced by Sony at the PlayStation State of Play. Currently, these remakes are early in development, but we do know that Kratos’ original voice actor, TC Carson, is set to return.

Other than that, we now have additional information on these remakes. As the newer voice actor for Kratos, Christopher Judge says, the remakes will feature a brand new combat system and new content.

Why it matters: It’ll be exciting to see what Santa Monica has planned for these remakes. A new combat system implies that they’re rebuilding the original God of War games from the ground up, which is exactly what fans deserve.

When asked by a fan in what seems to be an expo about the remakes, Christopher Judge (the voice actor for Kratos in the Norse games) says that he’s not in the game and TC Carson will be reprising his role. 

It’s not a reboot, but they’re gonna put all-new technology in it, add more stuff, a new fighting system, so that would be TC.

Most likely, Christopher Judge disclosed this information too early, before Sony had a chance to do so. This ‘all-new technology’ is likely an updated engine, and the ‘more stuff’ would be additional content, possibly including cut content from the original games.

Regarding the combat system, we don’t expect it to be similar to newer games, as that means a closer camera angle, which wouldn’t work for the older, larger-scale games.

It would certainly be better for Santa Monica to stick with the hack-and-slash combat system and adopt a system something akin to the Devil May Cry games. Whatever the case may be, we will learn soon enough.
