The God of War Origins Collection is a HD re-release of Ghost of Sparta and Chains of Olympus - two prequels to the original God of War originally exclusive to the PSP. The release also includes both pieces of DLC for Ghost of Sparta (Legionnaire Kratos and Forest of the Forgotten), and the "God of War: Game Directors Live" video.

Both games are remastered to 1080p resolution with 7.1 sound. Performance is also increased for the PS3 hardware. Control is reworked to utilize the Dual Shock controller, now playing similar to the PlayStation 2 originals. Trophy support is included, and both games have optional stereoscopic 3D support.
