Up until “God of War: Ragnarok,” the series has focused primarily on Kratos, featuring a host of memorable characters like Atreus, Mimir, Thor, Freya, Angrboda, Tyr, Brok, and Sindri. These characters navigate complex relationships and challenges across the mythical nine realms, filled with mysteries and breathtaking landscapes.

Following the tremendous success of “God of War: Ragnarok,” anticipation for the next game in the series is at an all-time high. There are also rumors that the new game might be set in ancient Egypt, potentially bringing Kratos back as a playable character.
