More Gods
Due to the nature of Kratos’ line of work, he tends to get his hands a bit dirty. More often than not, he’s covered in the blood and guts of those that stand in the way of his goal. The Gods aren’t immune to this though, and Kratos has had to take care of more than his fair share of these incredibly powerful deities in the past. With the change to the Norse setting, many may have thought they’d be taking on a fairly long list of Norse Gods throughout Kratos and Atreus’ journey. About that…
God of War’s first release on the PS4 doesn’t actually pit you against all that many of the Norse Gods. That’s not necessarily a negative point, but facing off against these all-powerful beings in the past has felt far more intense and immersive than many of the sub-bosses in this latest adventure. Plus, without delving too deep into spoilers, there are a few certain showdowns with Norse Gods we’d love to see Kratos take on.
Not all Gods need to be enemies of Kratos, however, and it’d be neat to even see Kratos working alongside some iconic Norse Gods, rather than grotesquely murdering them. Mythical items could be gifted to Kratos, new abilities could be learned. With more Gods comes plenty of potential new gameplay possibilities.
That being said, there are still some loose ends to be tied up in Kratos and Atreus’ story, so fingers crossed we’ll see more of the Norse Gods getting involved then.
