They also said why they did this remaster.
"Remasters often help us open the door to new players who perhaps did not play God of War 3 5yrs ago, but who we can bring it to on the PlayStation 4. People often forget, the more players we can bring into a franchise, the better for everyone. At Santa Monica Studio, we'd like as many PlayStation fans to experience our games as possible, from generation to generation," Community Strategist Aaron Kaufman explained.
What else is to be expected from the remastered edition? Corly Barlog in his PlayStation blog described it as an "action packed thrill ride that will take series newcomers and regulars alike on a retina-popping thrill ride filled to the absolute brim with 1080p gameplay, silky smooth combat, earth-shaking weapons, bosses you simply have to face to believe." The game will also have a new photo mode which allows players to take snapshots of gameplay and share it with friends.
"God of War 3" is a third-person action-adventure game developed by Santa Monica Studio and published by Sony Computer Entertainment.
