God of War follows Kratos, the God of War, who, after exiling himself from his blood-soaked past in ancient Greece, hangs up his weapons forever in the Norse realm of Midgard.
When his beloved wife dies, Kratos sets off on a dangerous journey with his estranged son to spread her ashes from the highest peak—his wife’s final wish.
Kratos soon realizes the journey is an epic quest in disguise, one which will test the bonds between father and son, and force Kratos to battle new Gods and monsters for the fate of the world.
The God of War game franchise is one of PlayStation’s most profitable and iconic brands, having sold over 66 million games worldwide.
God of War showrunner Ronald D. Moore is best known for his acclaimed Battlestar Galactica (So Say We All) , alternative version of the space race For All Mankind and time-travelling romance Outlander.
