What do we know about the plot of God Of War ?
The game focuses on the story of Kratos (a Spartan warrior) who made a pact with Ares, the Greek god of war. Before dying, the warrior was given the power of the Blades of Chaos to slay anyone who opposed the divine will. After discovering Ares’ deception that resulted in the death of Kratos’ wife and daughter, Kratos went berserk. He wanted revenge on the whole land.
When he found out that Zeus was his father and wanted to kill him too, he decided to “get rid of” him and escape to the Nordic region. Santa Monica Studio’s God Of War games feature Kratos as the foe of the Norse foes, on an expedition with his son to scatter the ashes of his late wife.
