God Of War 2018 - Walkthrough Gameplay Part 4 ( no commentary) Raw
God of War is an action-adventure game franchise created by David Jaffe at Sony's Santa Monica Studio. It began in 2005 on the PlayStation 2 (PS2) video game console, and has become a flagship title for the PlayStation brand, consisting of ten games across multiple platforms with an eleventh currently in development. Based in ancient history, the story follows the titular protagonist, Kratos, a Spartan warrior and later the God of War, who was tricked into killing his family by his former master, the original Greek God of war Ares. This sets off a series of events that leads to wars with the pantheons. The Greek era of the series sees Kratos follow a path of vengeance due to the machinations of the Olympian Gods, while the Norse era, which introduces his son Atreus as a secondary protagonist, shows an older Kratos on a path of redemption, which inadvertently brings the two into conflict with the Norse Gods.
Second era (Norse Mythology)
God of War: A Call from the Wilds is a short text-based game, released through Facebook Messenger on February 1, 2018. The game serves as a prequel story to 2018's God of War, and follows Atreus on his first adventure in the Norse wilds.
God of War: Mimir's Vision is a mobile alternate reality game released on April 17, 2018. The game provides some background for the Norse setting of 2018's God of War.
God of War was released worldwide on April 20, 2018, for the PlayStation 4. Many years after the events of God of War III, Kratos has ended up in the world of Norse in ancient Norway, in the realm of Midgard, and has a son named Atreus. After Kratos' second wife and Atreus' mother, Faye, passes away from an unknown cause, the two set out on a journey to fulfill her final wish of spreading her ashes at the highest peak of the nine realms, later revealed to be in Jötunheim. Along their journey, they are attacked by Baldur, who was sent by Odin to get to Faye in order to prevent Ragnarök, unaware she has died. After Kratos eventually kills Baldur, the three-year-long Fimbulwinter begins, with Ragnarök soon to follow, which was not supposed to occur for another hundred years. While Baldur's mother Freya swears revenge on Kratos, he and Atreus complete their journey and discover that Faye was a giant who had foreseen the future and chose to remain in Midgard; it is also revealed that Atreus was originally named Loki by his mother before Kratos renamed him in the memory of a former Spartan comrade. The game is a new direction for the series, not only by its new mythological setting, but also by its gameplay. Kratos now prominently uses a magical battle axe called the Leviathan Axe instead of his iconic dual blades from the previous installments. The game was ported and released for PC through Steam on January 14, 2022.
God of War Ragnarök was announced on September 16, 2020, and is scheduled to be released worldwide on the PlayStation 4 and the PlayStation 5 on November 9, 2022, marking the first game in the series to release on both a previous and current generation console simultaneously. It will bring about the events of Ragnarök foretold in the previous game.Cory Barlog had previously confirmed that the 2018 installment would not be Kratos' last game, and that following games would continue to be set in the Norse environment and include Atreus; However, in September 2021, Eric Williams, the game's director, stated at the 2021 PlayStation Showcase event that Ragnarök would "cap off the Norse series". The accompanying trailer revealed that Kratos and Atreus will seek out the Norse God of War Týr to team up with against Odin and the rest of Asgard. The other major aspect revealed about the story is Atreus' desire to find out about his true identity as Loki. When the trailer begins, it seems like he and Kratos have been in hiding since the end of God of War 2018, with Kratos worrying Atreus' curiosity will lead to a fight against the gods.
