Santa Monica Studio God of War Ragnarok Art Blast (Part One)

Finally, after years of effort from hundreds of dedicated artists, it’s finally here. The release of this game is a testament to the hard work and collaboration of the Santa Monica Studio team. Games are the result of a collective effort, and art is just one aspect of it. The art team at Santa Monica Studio is constantly encouraged to work together with other departments to overcome challenges and create something truly remarkable.
It’s important to note that the work showcased in the Art Blast is not the full extent of the contributions made by the artists involved. Many artists who contributed early on or chose not to be part of the Art Blast have played an integral role in the creation of this game. We cannot express enough gratitude for every artist who has devoted time and energy to this project. AI has made an impact on the industry and this game is a testament to the talent and creativity of the artists, their passion and dedication have played a vital role in making this game a reality. This has been a monumental undertaking, and we are overjoyed with the positive response it has received from fans.
Day one is dedicated to Concept Art and Character Art. The second part of the art blast will showcase Environment Art, VFX and Lighting.
Enjoy!
