I just saw this in the subway here in spain.

Rough translation

"My dad can beat/be better than yours"

God of war

Happy father's day

BabyFaceKillah · Mar 14, 2017

"My Dad can remorselessly murder your Dad AND the weak gods he worships!"

No, its in June. I did a double take too.

EDIT: In the USA, anyway. Completely missed the part where this was in Spain.

This week. Sunday if i'm not mistaken.

The UK version of this ad is "My dad'll beat the shit outta your dad"

Rien · Mar 14, 2017

Kratos looking happy as always

vivekTO · Mar 14, 2017

Is it coming out in 2017???

Not in America, it isn't. It's not until June 18th here.

Clear · Mar 14, 2017

Guess that strongly suggests they are targetting GoW to release this year, not surprising really as it seems a natural bit of counter-programming to Scorpio launch. The series being traditionally a graphical showcase for PS systems.

manzoman96 · Mar 14, 2017

Hopefully this means the release is sooner than we think.

Father's Day is different times in different countries. Not in US until late June

Celebrated on different days in other countries, Mother's Day too I believe.

This pretty much confirms a 2017 release, right?

I think it makes it likely but I wouldn't fully expect it.

skynidas · Mar 14, 2017

If this is not coming out in 2017 then that's a weird ad.

wapplew · Mar 14, 2017

No feeling Atreus design, look like emo kid.

Midas · Mar 14, 2017

Guys, don't jump to conclutions now. This doesnt confirm a release this year in any way. Don't set yourself up for disappointment.

It's just a funny ad, reminding people of the series.

Jack The Nipper · Mar 14, 2017

Kratos doesn't look like Kratos?

Perhaps that's what he looks like after aging. Also, kids man, kids will do that to you appearance.

Horizon had an early marketing push as well but I guess nothing's been confirmed yet so let's hope for the best

EhoaVash · Mar 14, 2017

Kratos doesn't look like a father, looks more like a grandpa lol

HardRojo · Mar 14, 2017

What does "Mi papá le puede al tuyo" mean in Spain Spanish? It doesn't make sense in Latam Spanish as there seems to be a verb missing between "puede" and "al". I know you offered a rough English translation there but I just want to understand why that sentence, as it is, makes sense in Spain Spanish. I'm a native Spanish speaker from Peru btw.

There's nothing pleasant about those character designs. It's just so... shit.

Nope. Only in countries that are doing it wrong. The real father's day is November.

Markitron · Mar 14, 2017

This suggests to me that the game may be closer than we think, guess we will find out in June.

Básicamente es una frase hecha/expresión aquí en España que indica superioridad de alguien sobre otro. Ese "le puede" en el contexto se puede decir con que puede ganarle en algo, en una pelea normalmente. Pero puede referirse a cualquier cosa dependiendo de lo que se esté hablando.

Kenzodielocke · Mar 14, 2017

It's probably targeted for this year but we know Sony so it's going to be February/March.

Chumley · Mar 14, 2017

2017 and then delayed to March/Feb 2018.

Translate this for us non speakers!!

Rymuth · Mar 14, 2017

To be fair, kiddo, your dad happened to have also beaten *HIS* dad

its basically a phrase to indicate that someone can beat someone else at something, typically a fight

cakely · Mar 14, 2017

What I got out of this:

The same company that does public transit advertising in Chicago also does it in Spain.

I think that based on this random ad in Spain you could safely bet your house on it.

Carnby · Mar 14, 2017

Does this mean Happy Father's Day is the title of the game? As in, God of War: Happy Father's Day.

RootCause · Mar 14, 2017

I don't like the kid.

Really? I'm from Colombia and it makes perfect sense. "le puede" = "can", it's only obvious if you're familiar with the expression "mi papá le gana al tuyo" or "my dad can beat yours" that it means, effectively, "mi papá le puede [ganar] al tuyo".

Nestunt · Mar 14, 2017

So.. this game has really high chances of being released this year. I was not counting on that.

Still, I maintain my bet that it will have the same release window of The Order and Horizon, but in 2018

Citripio and Arturito though...

Both Spanish and Latin have done that (not that I disagree with Onda Vital being stupid).
