It didn’t seem possible to make the story of an irritable god-killer a relatable, heartbreaking father-son journey for the ages. This soft-reboot and continuation of the original God of War series took the video game world by storm, earning several positive reviews and a sure spot on the Game of the Year list. This iteration of God of War finds an old and withered Kratos and his ambitious son Atreus at a very somber moment in their lives. Kratos’ wife has just passed away, so the two must bring her ashes to their destined area among the mountains. Meanwhile, Kratos is constantly being hunted by his past in the form of Norse gods and myths.

Though this game may not feature zombies as the main conflict, the theme of unbreakable, life-long bonds is carried on through this piece of work. Typical of Kratos, he is stoic and impossible to deal with in the beginning of the game, but as he and Atreus venture throughout vast lands, players slowly begin to see an unknown, softer side to the god. Kratos soon shows compassion and actual fear at losing Atreus. He begins to form an interest in his son’s needs and desires. In summary, the game is more about a mushy father-son dynamic than slaying gods. Though, there’s plenty of that too.
