The clip also doesn’t even mention the original trilogy, the events of which are discussed far more frequently in Ragnarök than in its predecessor.

The clip is vague and selectively edited, and honestly ended up leaving me more confused than I was before watching - and that’s from someone who replayed God of War (2018) a month before Ragnarök’s release. You - yes, you - definitely need a lore refresher.įrom the main menu, you can access a two-minute lore recap video that runs down key moments from the 2018 game. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or coming in colder than Niflheim, the following advice should help you guide protagonist Kratos and his son, Atreus, through the nine realms. But Ragnarök has its tricks, and it certainly doesn’t explain them all. For the most part, it’s a natural extension of its predecessor, 2018’s God of War, right down to the way certain gameplay mechanics work (sincerest condolences to everyone who hated those dang Nornir chests).


God of War Ragnarök, the most lavishly produced parenting handbook of 2022, is out now for PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4.
