Sony released a God of War controller and Peruvians are saying it's theirs.

Cuzco Helénico.- Sony has just announced that it will launch a special edition God of War controller, and Peruvians are already saying that “it’s theirs.”

To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Ancient Greek-set saga, the company revealed a Kratos-inspired wireless controller for the PlayStation 5, which comes completely white with a red stripe.

This is an insult to both PlayStation users and the God of War series. They could have put a little more effort into the design. The only thing missing is a standard drift. pic.twitter.com/xKTCwHeazO

They believe that Sony paid tribute to the Peruvians.

The controller, which will go on sale on October 23rd for around 2,000 pesos, has generated a stir on social media precisely because of its limited edition and its gorgeous design based on Kratos' iconic ash gray and glowing crimson tattoo.

However, the Peruvians were quick to spoil the party by claiming that the control is based on their flag and, above all, on the uniform their national team wears in soccer, which provoked collective laughter on the internet.

“Thanks to Peru, we always have someone to laugh at,” “You may not know it, but Kratos was Peruvian. He was so Peruvian that he tattooed the colors of Peru all over his body,” “It's a tribute to River Plate,” were just some of the jokes that netizens posted on social media.

Back to the controller, Sony assured that the special edition DualSense will allow players to experience the full immersion of the PS5. Although, to be honest, they should rather release a new exclusive God of War , as well as a new The Last of Us , the next Elder Scrolls , another Uncharted , and, incidentally, a Red Dead Redemption . I mean, so that it feels like the PS5 had something new.

And in case you missed it: an Argentine channel was broadcasting Trump's UN speech, and they ran commercials because they didn't pay for YouTube Premium.
