God of War
This year marks a particularly bright one for many gamers as Kratos is back in action and this time he has a new title — father. Early preview trailers for the new God of War focused on Kratos training his son and preparing him for an unpredictable and intimidating world. But God of War comes with just as much mystery as it does excitement that everyone’s favorite god-killer is returning. While the new God of War is said to be a true sequel to 2010’s God of War III, it’s hard to ignore the game’s departure from Greek mythology as it dives into Norse mythology instead. While this opens doors for new characters and lore to fill the universe, it will be interesting to see how the mythology shift will be addressed in the game or if it will be ignored completely. Either way, there are plenty of reasons to be eager for the new God of War to hit shelves this year.
