Sony Santa Monica is now hard at work on the highly anticipated PS4-exclusive "God of War."

Answering a question thrown by a fan on Twitter, Sony Santa Monica's Cory Barlog said that the team is aiming to push the boundaries of the PlayStation 4 for "God of War."

The "God of War" series has always maximized its resources when it comes to performance, and the PS4-exclusive title will be no different.

Barlog also confirmed that the development of the game is in full swing, citing "a wall of meetings and two playtests." The game is also shaping up to be pretty good, however, Barlog said.

It is unavoidable, however, that there are some hardcore "God of War" fans and critics who are not too keen on the new direction "God of War" is taking.

Speaking out on Twitter, Barlog said. "Sorry if you are not liking the new stuff. Hopefully you'll wait to play before writing us off completely. The ace is awesome."

"I believe when people play the final game they will see our goal, and even the hardest of hearts will melt." the "God of War" director continued. "...being part of the creation of the original I can assure you, moving forward is never wrong."

As he has explained on the Playstation Blog after E3, Barlog said that the team do not want to simply do a reboot of the franchise.

"I wanted to reimagine the gameplay, give players a fresh perspective and a new tactile experience," he said, "while delving deeper into the emotional journey of Kratos to explore the compelling drama that unfolds when an immortal demigod makes a decision to change."

The team is currently looking for people who can lend their expertise in making "God of War." On its official Twitter page, the studio is looking for a Technical Designer to join the "God of War" team.
