As one of the most creative games 2018, God of War was a critic and player success because of its extraordinary detail, among other reasons. The artwork of God of War, conceptual or not, is unique. It has a distinctive appearance that is earthy, vibrant, and vivid.

Fans around the world are fascinated by God of War because of its artistic potential. The following compilation is of studio and fan art based on the renowned God of War series. The composition of these images is inspiring. These are 10 magnificent pieces of God of War artwork.

10 God Of War And Wind Waker Mashup

Twitter user @nikogeyer is one of the leading The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker artists on social media. This God of War artwork is heavily influenced by Nintendo GameCube's The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, one of the most iconic Zelda games.

This artist stands out for their artwork, including King K. Rool meets Link, in a Wind Waker-themed picture. There is an obvious comparison since both games' protagonists ride a small wooden boat. Perhaps God of War will also age like oaky wine; Wind Waker got better with age.

9 Ryu Vs Kratos- Final

The ultimate showdown against two of the most fearless warriors in video games comes to life in this vivid drawing. Ryu Hayabusa and Kratos, who oddly doesn't have a last name, need to face-off in a one versus one battle.

At the moment, the only game series that could make this possible is the Super Smash Bros. series. Sony PlayStation has yet to make a crossover fighting game along the lines of the Super Smash Bros. series, but we would welcome the idea. Thanks to David-Hsu-Yen from DeviantArt for this stunning image!

8 Kratos God Of War

This straight to the point but dazzling artwork would look spectacular on a canvas. This artwork works on so many levels. We would love to see it produced on a mass scale.

The artist deserves praise for providing this picture-perfect representation of Kratos from God of War. The blend of darkness and light contrasts well to form a beautiful photo. Thanks to SONICX at DeviantArt for providing this magnificent piece of God of War artwork!

7 God of War Fan Art

This epic battle of Kratos and a multi-headed dragon is God of War artwork at its best. If only the picture was of a higher resolution, it would be a masterpiece. Regardless, many will appreciate the effort and time that went into creating this art.

The styling shows the passion that Kratos displays in the games. This clashing of colors and figures creates a harmonious picture that is both gloomy and bright. We can't thank DeviantArt user thiennh2 enough for this legendary image.

6 God Of War

This piece of God of War art was created before the release of God of War (2018). It captures what the artist saw from a few frames of trailers, which is what makes this picture even more special. The weight of Kratos is a tad off since Kratos has bulked up in the most recent games.

We can even see Jörmungandr, the World Serpent, in the above photo. It dives from above while Kratos struggles to grasp his Leviathan two-handed war axe. Thanks to Istrandar from DeviantArt for creating this artwork.

5 God Of War

We are at a loss for words over this stunning God of War drawing. Everything from the lush green mountains to the meandering river in the background makes this picture stand out. And how about that pose? Kratos stands adamantly with his son Atreus on his shoulders.

According to DeviantArt user cagdasdemiralp's original post, "My illustration was chosen as the winner of the Fabisad Gio Awards 2018." There is no doubt in our mind that he is talented. It wouldn't be surprising to see this in an art museum.

4 God Of War III: Three Judge

Concept art is used to convey ideas for work that hasn't been created yet. In video games, concept art could be for games that haven't released. The Three Judges are bosses that appear in God of War III.

They rule the Underworld, but oddly, they didn't appear in the first two God of War games. We don't see the Three Judges in this photo, so this may be another area for the Underworld that isn't part of a game. We want to give a big shoutout to DeviantArt user jungpark for this concept art.

3 BOY

God of War (2018) is the winner of numerous awards, including the BAFTA Games Award for Best Narrative because of its engrossing story and all-around phenomenal gameplay. One of Kratos's most famous quotes in the game is when he says, "Booooy!" It's a humorous moment in the game and the title of this artwork.

Kratos is seen in a fantastic action pose. We love every bit about this God of War art. It works in every which way. Thanks whoareuu for providing this artwork!

2 God Of War: Ascension

Perhaps this is part of God of War: Ascension that didn't get put into the game. This boat would look spectacular in God of War (2018). Perhaps this should have been the boat Kratos rides in God of War (2018).

As long as artists continue to develop awesome concept artwork like the one in the above photo, the God of War series has a long future ahead. Thanks to Santa Monica Studio for providing this breathtaking artwork!

1 A New Beginning

The most recent God of War game was a new beginning for new characters and familiar faces. Kratos appears in the game, yet he has changed quite a bit since the other God of War games. Many of his powers are gone, and he has to relearn how to be a warrior.

To see Kratos and Atreus, a video game duo who we've become familiar with, in this light, is not unusual. They are climbing a mountain to disperse Atreus's late mother's ashes. Thanks to ertacaltinoz for this stunning artwork.
