Sony has released a new multiplayer trailer for God of War: Ascension, along with info on a global multiplayer beta.

Hitting in the near future, the beta is exclusive to PS Plus members. Well, at first, at least. It will be made available more widely at a later date through a “few other secret inroads.”

 

Each player has a choice of Gods to play as; Zeus, Hades, Ares or Poseidon, with each God offering their own combat styles and abilities. Beyond that, players will also unlock magic abilities, weapon and armour upgrades, "mystical relics" and other treasures through XP aquisition and leveling.

You can find out more about the multiplayer beta on the PS Blog.

God of War: Ascension is out on March 12th 2013.

  • Thought this game was coming out in february, they pushed it back?
  • No online trophies for the love of God...
  • @2 : Seconded.
  • I like online trophies.. if they are something like just play a match or win a match. Easy ones since your gonna try the MP anyways atleast alittle. Im against .. get to lvl 100 trophies!
  • Multiplayer is a 1st for the God of War series. I think it's gonna be pretty cool to customise characters and the stages look raw as hell too!
  • looks kinda lame imo.
  • I don't think you actually play as the God. You play as a character devoted to said God. That's what it looks like from the trailer anyway. Basically like how they do class templates in FPS (Assault etcetc.). I'm guessing they'll try and push MP related achieves but it would be nice not to have them aside from "win a match" or something like that. I doubt I'll play this game to max level MP.
  • When I first heard about multiplayer in GOW I was rather skeptical, but I must say it looks pretty descent. I still hope they scratch MP trophies though.
  • @7 youre correct, from what else ive read, u are a devotee of a particular god. also, this is the first game that i would like to beta test. im a plus member, so i guess ive got a shot.
  • Multiplayer is completely unnecessary for this game and they honestly should've just left it out entirely. If there's online trophies I'm going to kill myself.
  • Epic trailer! Just have to wait and see how it all turns out..
