Santa Monica's God of War (2018) yanks Kratos out of Greek mythology and throws him into the rich world of Norse mythology, where he explores the Nine Realms with his son, Atreus, at his side. God of War Ragnarok will serve as the second and final chapter of the franchise's Norse mythology era, and the stakes are higher than ever. Atreus, who has discovered that he is part-god, is searching for more answers about his identity. However, Kratos and his son must also contend with Ragnarok, an event that promises to bring about the end of days.
