Kratos returns home to unearth his old weapons, the Blades of Anarchy, and is haunted by Athena's spirit. After retrieving the eye, he has a haunting vision of Zeus. Atreus is cured, and Kratos tells him he is a god. Atreus then becomes increasingly arrogant on their journeying, and he murders a weakened Modi, despite Kratos ordering him not to. At Midgard's acme, they are ambushed past Baldur. Atreus heedlessly picks a fight with Baldur, who so proceeds to destroy the portal to Jötunheim and throw the group into Helheim.

Sequel

Principal Article: God of War: Ragnarök

On September 16th 2020, during a showcase event for the PlayStation 5, information technology was confirmed that a follow up to God of War would be coming to the system in 2021. The trailer featured a vox over by Kratos, once over again voiced by Christopher Gauge.

Trivia

God of War (2018) is the first game that doesn't focus on Greek mythology, as information technology has changed the narrative to Norse mythology. It is also first game to feature 2 characters (after three, though Mimir just had a head and was not playable) throughout the gameplay and the first fourth dimension another grapheme is (though partly) playable (though in God of State of war III Pandora accompanied Kratos during certain segments of the game, she was not playable).
- It is, however, not the starting time fourth dimension the God of War franchise features characters from a different mythology. God of War: Chains of Olympus featured aspects of Farsi, Arab, and Irish mythology, in the forms of the Basilisk, Efreet, and the Banshee, and God of State of war II features the Kraken, which originates in the Scandinavian areas of Europe.
God of War(2018) is the kickoff installment in which a major gameplay changed many traditions present in the past games of the series. The game manner had introduced: RPG elements, an over-the-shoulder mode gameplay replacing the stock-still camera style from previous entries, had no sex mini-game, no Save Altars, no Orb Chests and replace Nordic Chests, Orbs were replaced by Hacksilver, the Blades of Anarchy-style HUD was adapted into a Nordic-style HUD, had less QTE segments, and well-nigh notably, Kratos' face is not shown on the principal menu, however he is shown when players beginning the game for the commencement time and difficulty-level options are shown. The second is God of State of war: Ascension. It besides marks the offset fourth dimension where a player transitions immediately into the gameplay rather than a cutscene being shown commencement.
Early Indicatives of the fact that the game was a continuation of the serial, the motility "Spartan Rage" nods to Kratos' by as a Spartan, Kratos retains his Spartan tattoo, has scars on his forearms resembling the bondage from the Blades of Exile, the scars on his belly and left middle, as well equally the ashes of Lysandra and Calliope covering him.
Due to the shift in genre, this game has far more bosses than even God of War II (xiv). Nonetheless, only counting unique storyline bosses every bit truthful boss fights, and so this game simply has four (Baldur, Hraezylr, Magni & Modi, and Baldur again), the second to the lowest degree corporeality in the series on par with Ascension with only the first game lower than information technology.
This is one of the three games where Kratos interacts with his non-godly family unit in real time, and not only in flashbacks. The others are God of State of war: Chains of Olympus and God of War: Ghost of Sparta.
Christopher Judge voices Kratos in the game. He replaces Terrence C. Carson, who has voiced the grapheme in all previous installments. Approximate is well known for his function as Teal'c in Stargate SG-1. This marks the starting time game that Kratos isn't voiced by TC Carson.
Director Cory Barlog and scenes from the terminal trailer repeatedly identified Kratos as a god, despite him losing his godly status post God of War Ii and technically being a demigod.
- Still, he did absorb Hades' Soul in God of War III, technically condign a god one time again.
- There'due south also the fact that he reclaimed the Bract of Olympus at the end of God of War Two, which stored Kratos' godly powers.
- What'southward more interesting is that Kratos said to Atreus that he'due south built-in a god, instead of demigod. He does, however, acknowledge his mortal origin as he tells Atreus that he's part God, part Giant, and part mortal.
- It could exist safely assumed that Godhood in Kratos' views refers more towards the possession of godly inheritance and ability regardless of purity of one's godly genealogy. This fits perfectly with Thor, Magni and Modi every bit though they are seen as Aesir gods, they are in fact part Giant.
This is the only game in the series and so far to not take Linda Chase as the narrator.
Overall, this is the first PlayStation Studio owned game, to exist released exterior PlayStation consoles later the initial PlayStation console exclusive release date.
