Kratos, God of Warning.

The God of War sequel is one of the year's most anticipated video games, and you can now play it on XBOX. War Gods Zeus of Child, which stars Sony's video game character Kratos and a bunch of generic monster baddies, is currently available for just $4.09 on the XBOX store.

You thought I was talking about something else. War Gods Zeus of Child is an approved entry in one of Sony's most valuable franchise being sold on a competing console platform.

You will want to play it based on the description.

War Gods Zeus of Child is a great war game. Destroy all enemies and creatures with the Zeus War Gods of challange [sic]. Kill them all with your gun. Launch attacks with various combos. Reach the highest monster kills without dying. Feel the power of the warning god.

If that didn't sell you on it, check out this video from Red Bandana gaming.

I will stop making jokes now. War Gods Zeus of Child is a blatant rip off of God of War and was published on the Xbox store. I don't think Sony has any plans to bring a God of War game to Microsoft's platform. I don't think Phil Spencer would approve of this game either, since he says God of War is the game he most wants to play next.

Eurogamer spotted that War Gods Zeus of Child's developer is a company called Dolaka, which is also behind another ripoff called Dina.

Microsoft's strict certification processes don't allow knockoffs to make it to the store (like we sometimes see on mobile app stores), but Eurogamer speculates that Dolaka's titles might be sold through the Xbox Creators Program, which allows Xbox developers to circumvent the typical processes Microsoft says that if the game integrates Xbox services and follows store policies, it is ready to be published.

You don't have to read a lot to see how Dolaka's games would violate store policies. Both titles feature characters that are obviously ripoffs of Kratos and a Fall Guys bean, and while I am definitely not a lawyer, that would seem to violate section 10.

We wanted to know if the games will stay for sale. I will be watching the trailer for the real God of War sequel again.
