David Jaffe, the creator of God of War and former Santa Monica Studio lead, has publicly condemned the newly released Sons of Sparta, a side-scrolling take on the franchise. In a rant that ran close to ten minutes, he argued the game's direction was a misstep and disparaged both its execution and what it means for the series' legacy.

  • Jaffe criticized the decision to make a 2D side-scrolling God of War entry, calling it a major mistake for the brand.
  • He said the release felt disrespectful to longtime fans and to the teams who worked on the project.
  • The commentary was delivered in an extended video segment that has attracted attention online.
  • Sons of Sparta is a newly released spin-off that departs from the series' traditional 3D action-adventure format.
