Hallo steemian, Kratos and God of War, which gamers have never heard of or known these two names. Despite the fact that both are exclusive Playstation products since the Playstation 2 era, this one action game franchise has indeed grown into an iconic title with unquestionable quality. When some games fail to represent a cool classical mythology into a satisfying story, Sony Santa Monica does the job very well. Although Kratos characters are counted "fictitious", the mission of revenge that ends with the destruction of Olympus and the world through different series is an emotional long journey. Not surprisingly, the anticipation of the latest series to be released in the next few weeks - God of War is so strong.
Sony Santa Monica did take so many risky changes with it, from the side of the story, mythology, gameplay, to the camera system. As a gamer who was skeptical at the beginning, we welcome this variety of changes with open arms. That what Sony Santa Monica has to offer here is not just an attempt to revitalize a franchise that surprisingly, has a chance to live again, but continues the story of an iconic character who has an emotional bond with his fans. And so far, she had an amazing tip.
So, what is actually offered by God of War? Why do we call it an awesome new chapter? This review will discuss it more deeply for you.

Role as a direct sequel, this latest God of War brings you to the story of Kratos continuation
This new God of War is not a reboot series, it's a direct sequel to God of War 3. We're still dealing with the Kratos figure we've known, but started living a different life. He lives in Scandinavia, standing under Norse mythology, along with a happy family. But unfortunately, the tragedy seems unable to escape the figure of Kratos.
It opens with a sad fact that Kratos has lost a wife he loves, and Atreus no longer has a mother figure. Preparing for his funeral by going through the cremation process, the woman they loved had one last request - to sow his ashes at the highest peak of the Norse. A journey that is of course, not easy.
As if he could not escape the tragedy, he had to lose the woman he loved in this new world. Kratos is now only accompanied by the child - Atreus.
Before his death, Kratos's wife had only one last request - sowing his ashes in cremation at the highest peak of Realm.
Kratos must first train Atreus who despite having the ability to hunt from the mother, but not yet quite responsive about what threats are waiting for them. Still small and unstable, Atreus still needs a lot of learning. Kratos initially saw that he had to give long time for Atreus to grow. But the situation immediately changed, when a mysterious man knocked on their door. From there Kratos knows and understands one thing - that there is no longer a more appropriate moment to fulfill his wife's request while ensuring Atreus is safe.
The journey away makes Kratos inevitably prepare Atreus, teaching him all the skills needed to survive against the Norse threat that does not know the word forgiveness.
But the priority changed after Kratos was attacked by a mysterious man.
So, what kind of journey Kratos explore the wild world to arrive at the highest peak? What adventure should he go with with Atreus? Who is this mysterious man who knocked on Kratos's door? All the answers to that question can be found by playing God of War.
