God Of War: 9 New Things We Can't Wait To Do
4. Go Sailing (And Find Other Vehicles)
With the increased size of the world, the developers have also included brand new ways to get from point A to point B. In a bid to make the world interesting and varied, we're getting a drivable boat.
Allowing you to set sail to different parts of the environment, the fact that the title has multiple ways to get around at all should be an indication of how open it's going to be, however the boat isn't the only way Kratos and Arteus will be able to explore the highs and lows of each level. Santa Monica have confirmed that there will indeed be other modes of transport in the game, but are keeping quiet as to what they are for now.
Not only is the addition of vehicles needed because the areas themselves are far larger than usual, but it's also indicative of how Santa Monica are approaching the design of each area. Not everything is easily accessible by foot, and each location should feel like a real geographical place, rather than a collection of levels.
