PlayStation All-Stars is canon to God of War, and there’s nothing you can do about it Leave a comment
Remember Sony’s Smash Bros. clone PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale? A tidbit of dialogue in God of War Ragnarok has essentially made it canon.
Look, let’s get this out the way. We all hate PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale. It’s name is silly and long, the super system just doesn’t work, and it featured the wrong Dante (though some of the stages were really fun, looking at you Loco Roco x Metal Gear Solid stage). If you hate the game but love God of War, then I’ve got some bad news for you unfortunately: PlayStation All-Stars really happened.
In a recent clip shared by TheCardinalArts on Twitter, dad of war himself Kratos is asked by Mimir about a ‘tournament’ he once took part in. Kratos notes that, obviously, he “fought in many contests,” but Mimir specifies that in “this particular one, I heard you did battle with beasts, scoundrels, princesses, the undead, automatons and… history’s greatest musician. That’s not… that’s not true, is it?” Kratos in kind responds, “I would not speak of this.” To which Mimir, and everyone else in the world, says “Fair enough, brother.”
