'''''God of War III''''' is an [[Action Adventure]] game developed by [[Santa Monica Studio]] and published by [[Sony Computer Entertainment]]. A sequel to 2007's ''[[God of War II]]'', ''God of War III'' is the fifth installment in the [[God of War (series)|''God of War'' series]], the seventh entry chronologically, and the last of the games to deal with the Greek era. First released for the [[PlayStation 3]] on March 16, 2010, ''God of War III'' was also included in the ''[[God of War Saga]]'' released for PlayStation 3 on August 28, 2012. In celebration of the ''God of War'' franchise's tenth anniversary, ''[[Updated Rerelease|God of War III Remastered]]'' was released for the [[PlayStation 4]] on July 14, 2015.
 
Picking up where the [[Cliffhanger]] of ''God of War II'' left off, Kratos - who has held the title of God of War ever since slaying Ares in [[God of War (video game)|the very fistfirst game]] - has rescued the Titans from their defeat in the Great War and declared the second Titanomachy against the Olympian Gods. The Titans climb their way up Mount Olympus itself to confront Zeus and his supporters, with Kratos standing on the back of Gaia and declaring that he has brought the destruction of Olympus. The divine inhabitants of Olympus bring the fight to the Titans, with the sea god Poseidon confronting Kratos directly as the opening battle of the game.
 
Upon defeating and killing Poseidon, Kratos confronts the King of the Gods, who blasts him and Gaia off Mount Olympus without even a fight. Gaia dismisses Kratos as just a pawn and refuses to help him as he falls, leaving him to [[Once Per Episode|fall into the Underworld]] [[Bag of Spilling|and lose a good chunk of his powers in the process]]. While carving his way out of Hades, Kratos meets an unexpected familiar face: the [[Late Arrival Spoiler|now-dead Athena, who exists as a ghost-like entity]]. She surprises Kratos by offering him her assistance in killing Zeus - but in order to do so, Kratos must retrieve the box of Pandora from Mount Olympus, with the Olympian Gods standing between him and his vengeance in order to preserve Zeus's rule.
