Playstation 4 God of War

A New Beginning: Having long left behind his vengeance against the gods of Olympus, Kratos now finds himself living as a man in the uncharted lands of Norse gods and monsters. In this harsh, unforgiving world, he must not only fight for his own survival, but also teach his son the same resilience.

Second Chances: As both mentor and protector to his son, who is determined to earn his father's respect, Kratos is presented with an unexpected opportunity to confront and control the rage that has long defined him. Questioning the dark legacy he has passed on, Kratos hopes to make amends for the shortcomings of his past.

Midgard and Beyond: Departing from the marble and columns of ornate Olympus, God of War is set within the untamed forests, mountains, and realms of Norse lore. This distinctly new realm features its own pantheon of creatures, monsters, and gods, inviting players to explore its breathtakingly threatening landscape – the largest in the franchise to date.

Vicious, Physical Combat: With an intimate, over-the-shoulder free camera that brings the action closer than ever before, combat in God of War is up close, frenetic, and unforgiving. Kratos' versatile axe, imbued with both power and magic, serves as a brutal weapon as well as a multi-faceted tool for exploration.

From Santa Monica Studio and creative director Cory Barlog comes a bold new beginning for one of gaming's most recognizable icons. This startling reimagining of God of War deconstructs the core elements that defined the series – satisfying combat, breathtaking scale, and a powerful narrative – and fuses them anew, offering players a deeply personal quest in a world that is distinctly Norse in its design and mythology.
