SONY PlayStation Asia: God of WAR: RAGNAROK 


A Simple Brief: 


Playstation Gaming Asia wanted to create commemorative gifts to celebrate the launch of their newest video game: God of War: Ragnarok. 

⚔️ WITH A HUGE TWIST.....


Due to confidentiality reasons from the game developers: Santa Monica Studios, I wasn't actually even allowed to look or play at the new game or play it before the launch to the public. I needed to imagine how the visuals would look based on my understanding of the previous games and how the game visuals had evolved from the prequel games. This meant I had to play all of the previous God of war games, which I had never touched before to familiarise myself with the intellectual property.


 Final Coaster Designs




Each of these coasters features of one of the Nine Realms of the game: Alfheim , Svartalfheim, Midgard , Helheim, Jotunheim and Muspelheim. I designed all 6 coasters and photographed the samples before we sent the coasters to the Playstation Asia office for internal distribution.



Here are some of my initial sketches and feedback from the team:

It was challenging to familiarise myself with the staggering amount of details featured in the video game. These coasters I designed pay tribute to the incredible graphics and boundless creativity of the game creators.
