SETTING
we all know GOW story was based on @greek mythology but now based on @norse mythology Brolog explained the transition:it's kind of BC-AD change over kind of thing,Egyptian mythology was also considered but since there a lot more about civilization and less isolated they wanted to stay focus on kratos,having too much around distract form that central theme of a stranger in strange land
i hope that explain why they choose Norse world,different belief and culture system coexisted,but they were Sparated by geography suggesting that kratos traveled form Greece to Norway after the conclusion of God of war III.
the game also say bout the vikings,it their time were their gods walked on earth,so players will be able to visit some of the nine realms of Norse.

olympus by himself,spending time with his father,atreus learns more about kratos past,he is left with option either to be like his father or be his own man
