#trending #trendingvideo #gaming #gameplay #walkthrough #viral #ps5 #kratos #baldur #godofwar #godofwar2018 #god #war #battle #fantasy Released in 2018, God of War (often referred to as God of War 4) is a soft reboot and sequel to the original Greek-mythology-based trilogy. It successfully reinvented the series by shifting the setting to Norse mythology and focusing on a more grounded, emotional narrative. The Story: A New Beginning After the destruction of Olympus, Kratos has left his blood-soaked past behind and settled in the realm of Midgard. Now living as a man, he has a son named Atreus. The game begins shortly after the death of Kratos's wife, Faye. Her final wish was for her husband and son to spread her ashes from the highest peak in the Nine Realms. This deeply personal quest forces the distant father and grieving son to bond while facing off against powerful Norse deities like Baldur and the sons of Thor. Key Gameplay Innovations The Leviathan Axe: Replacing the iconic Blades of Chaos, this frost-imbued axe can be thrown and recalled instantly, similar to Thor’s hammer. One Continuous Shot: The entire game is presented as a single, unbroken camera take with no loading screens or camera cuts, creating an incredibly immersive "theatrical" experience. The Over-the-Shoulder Camera: Moving away from the fixed cinematic cameras of old, the 2018 entry uses a close, third-person perspective that makes combat feel more visceral and personal. Atreus (The Boy): Unlike traditional "escort missions," Atreus is an essential combat partner. He uses his bow to stun enemies and can be upgraded with magical summons. Critical Reception & Legacy Awards: It won Game of the Year at The Game Awards 2018, beating out Red Dead Redemption 2. Platforms: Originally a PlayStation 4 exclusive, it was released on PC in January 2022 and is playable on PlayStation 5 with a 60 FPS patch. Sequel: The story concludes in the 2022 sequel, God of War Ragnarök.
