The upcoming God of War just got a few interesting new details regarding the game and how some boss fights will work. In a recent interview with Game Informer (via Gaming Bolt), director Cory Barlog confirmed that the game will have optional boss fights, making the first time in the series that a choice of this nature was available.
While the God of War series is known for having ridiculous boss fights, the series has never given the player the chance to either skip the fight or not do it altogether. However, it seems like this upcoming iteration will offer players a bit more freedom than they might be used to. We don’t know yet what type of bosses Barlog meant, or how players will be able to bypass the fights, so there’s still some more information that has to come out before we get a full understanding. Barlog also confirmed that Kratos will be able to increase his health in the game, but that it won?t be similar to how it?s done in previous games. While he didn?t elaborate on that, it?s becoming clearer and clearer that the folks behind the upcoming game intend for this God of War to be an experience that players haven?t received from the series ever before.
