God of War is back and the excitement has caused a seismic ripple across the entire gaming community.
The series will be moving on to Ragnarok and is loosely based on Norse mythology and will be set in ancient Norway. That being said, the game’s main protagonist Kratos is back along with his son Atreus.
Santa Monica Studios, the game’s developers, have written a storyline that covers a chain of events that unveils how the Norse Gods perished and continues on from the deaths of Aesir and Baldur who fell on Kratos’ axe.
A new character Thor will also be appearing in Ragnarok but caused a stir with some on social media due to his lack of athleticism in his appearance.
