Forums - Sony Discussion - In case anybody missed. God of War e3 2016 is a SEQUEL and not a reboot.

Kratos has 2 signature scars. One in the right eye and one in the stomach/abs.

His right eye in God of War E3 2016.

In this one, you can see his Scar in his stomach very clearly. And if you look closely there is a scar in his right eye :)

Cory Barlow says, kratos starts living in Norse region after the events of gow3. You know there was no dead body. Pretty much this is a sequel.



I wonder which norse goddess the mother is.



I think the moat obvious "surprise/plot twist" is that you actually won't play as kratos for much more than what would serve as the tutorial level in this game.

Clearly evident in kratos snippet with all the "new beginning" thing, the fact that after certain tasks the kid did we see a message on the screen saying "knowledge gained" and Cory's own giveaway by out rightly saying "you play as kratos throughout the game".

So yeah, we are going to be playing as his son throughout. Obviously older but his son none the less.



It probably is a sequel, however i'm not too sure Kratos will be the main character in the game. He is clearly training the boy and at the end he says "now you are ready" and "this is a new beginning".

So...he bangs a valkyrie and gets a child?

Yup.



The child is a useless pussy. He ain't ready for slaughtering gods left and right. Son gets kidnapped and kratos goes on a killing spree after quoting taken



I am so hyped for this game!!! Kratos <3

If they looked into the norse universe deeply I would say....

a jötunn and goddess associated with bowhunting, skiing, winter, and mountains

 

Matches the trailer quite well to be honest with you.

 

Hmm, that makes sense. Can't wait for this.



Yeah, so why the hell didn't they call it God of War 4?
