The world of video games is full of scammers who want to take advantage of the unwary, thanks to which God of War briefly arrived on Xbox. Last week, a fake God of War game titled War Gods Zeus of Child ended up quietly making its way to Xbox platforms. And while this title isn’t directly associated with PlayStation’s God of War franchise, that didn’t stop the creators from brazenly putting the series’ main protagonist, Kratos, in the middle of the action.
Yes, God of War did briefly arrive on Xbox, but this supposed title can hardly be described as an actual game. He just sees Kratos, who resembles his look from 2018’s God of War, swinging his ax around to deal damage to random creatures that come his way in a nondescript coliseum environment. Kratos himself has no running animations and the only point of the game is to hit these monsters as a way to increase your overall score. Do not forget that Phil Spencer is a fan of the franchise.
God of War briefly arrived on Xbox
The reason why we say that God of War arrived briefly on Xbox, is that Microsoft is usually watching out for its users from scammers. Right now, War Gods Zeus of Child has been removed from the Xbox store, which means that it can no longer be bought. Although the reason for this removal has not been made clear, it is clear that the game is committing a huge copyright violation by putting Kratos at the center of this title without the approval of PlayStation.
Cory Barlog, director of God of War, affirms that he will take a vacation to be able to play Starfield
All in all, it is interesting to see what some users can do. It is not the first time that we see games of this typenor will it be the last. The recommendation is to always be careful and not fall for this type of scam, unless you want to do it knowing what it is.
