The Playstation blog enumerate enhancements done in the remastered God of War III. First is that the game will be rendered at 1080p, all DLCs will be included and a list of new weapons for use.

The release of God of War III remastered on the PS4 will coincide with the 10th anniversary of the franchise; A fitting way to finally close the epic trilogy with style. After 10 years of success and after it made millions of gamers enjoy its action packed gameplay, GOWIII will take its final bow. God of War III remastered is set for release on July 14, 2015.
