Gods of war: children of SpartaThe endgame challenge, which also offers a two-player challenge mode, can now be unlocked before finishing the main game.
Developed by Mega Cat Studios in collaboration with Sony Santa Monica, Sons of Sparta is a 2D side-scrolling spin-off featuring Kratos and his brother Deimos as children, and was unveiled during Sony State of Play earlier this month.
When the game was released, it was assumed that the main game would be single-player and also offer two-player local co-op, leading players to call the mention of “1-2 players” on the PlayStation Store misleading.
However, that is not 100% accurate. While it offers a single-player experience, Children of Sparta It also features an endgame mode called The Pit of Agonies that can be played alone or with two players, but was only unlocked after completing the main game.
Now, in a new PlayStation Blog post, Mega Cat Studios has made the mode easily accessible, without having to complete the entire game.
To unlock it, players just need to enter a code combination on their PS5 DualSense controller in the home menu.
“Normally, The Pit can only be accessed after completing the main story to ensure those who attempt it are familiar with Kratos’ Spartan Arms and the enemies you’ll face, but if you feel ready to test your skills early, you can enter this sequence below in the start menu to unlock it early,” the developer said.
That sequence is: Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, L1, R1, Touchpad.
The Pit of Agonies is an end-game roguelike challenge mode, much more difficult than the base game, giving you different enemies and sets of rewards each match.
The Pit can be played completely solo as Kratos or in two-player local co-op, offline only, as Kratos and Deimos.
Each race begins by selecting a Starting Agony, a global difficulty modifier that adds variety to each race and impacts the way you play.
Players can also track their progress and see their current and high scores at the end of each race.
