Despite the big role that Atreus plays in God of War'due south story, you never get to take command of Kratos' boy himself. Notwithstanding, God of War players on PC will soon be able to do merely that thanks to a mod by Speclizer, a YouTuber who specializes in modding various triple-A titles.

Speclizer shared a video showing the in-development modern in action on their YouTube channel. Rather than simply swapping Kratos' model with Atreus', the modern looks to allow players actually control Atreus, and utilize the moves he uses every bit an NPC. Obviously, it's still pretty rough; Atreus moves around similar he's sliding on ice. The modder admitted that the mod "even so requires a lot more than work earlier release." Speclizer did not specify a release date or window for the mod.

This isn't Speclizer's first God of War mod. The modder previously created a showtime-person mod for the accolade-winning title.

Previously a PS4 exclusive, God of War debuted on PC in January, and it'southward developed a flake of modding scene. As evidenced by the game's Nexus Mods folio, many of the game'southward mods are reskins of the game's various weapons — or even Kratos himself — to match weapon or character designs seen in previous God of State of war games.
