Fans may wonder what it would look like ifHorizonandGod of Warcrossed over. In a post on Reddit’s r/GodofWar, one fan brought that idea to life, by depicting the protagonist ofHorizon Forbidden West, Aloy, as the new God of War.
User TurfMerkin created a silhouetted render of Aloy, bloodied and battle-hardened, holding Kratos’ Leviathan Axe, while wearing an outfit similar to the one worn by the Ghost of Sparta in the 2018 game. Currently, the post sits with a 93% upvote, with over 150+ comments praising the user’s depiction of the character, and howa great heroine like Aloycould fit into the largerGod of Warcanon.
With theoutfit system inForbidden Westreceiving a massive expansionfrom the previous game, it is not out of the realm of possibility that a Kratos-inspired garb for Aloy could appear in the sequel. It wouldn’t be the first timeGod of Warcrossed over another PlayStation game, as Jin Sakai from Sucker Punch’sGhost of Tsushimais able to receive Kratos-inspired armor in his game.
WhileHorizon Forbidden Westcontinues to build hype toward its release, especially withnew characters played by an all-star voice cast, it’s exciting to look at fan art such as this with much excitement. Plus, it will be fun to see the artist swap positions for the characters, and maybe depict Kratos battling post-apocalyptic machines next time.
