Gameplay
God of War is a third-person action game that takes advantage of its improved cinematic camera. It does so in a continuous shot, avoiding the need for loading screens.
This game is the second installment of the series, and it is only available for single-player. Its level structure is also open, though it is not an open world.
In addition to the usual combat, the game also includes a new feature that allows players to traverse bodies of water using a boat instead of a swimming ability. There are also various Norse mythological foes that players have to face.
Some side quests include freeing dragons, who were turned into dragons. There are also story-based boss battles that feature the use of Valkyries.
One of the game's most notable features is a GIF showing Kratos throwing his weapon, Leviathan, at an enemy.
Another notable feature is the HUD, which shows information about Kratos' health and other runic attacks.
The player takes the role of Kratos, who uses a combo-based combat mechanic and a puzzle game-like gameplay. The game has been rebuilt from the ground up.
Instead of using a hammer, he uses a magical battle axe called Leviathan. When thrown at enemies, the axe can magically transform into a weapon that stuns them.
The axe can also be used to trigger a damaging explosion, as well as freeze enemies in place while the weapon is summoned back to Kratos' hand.
The game also allows players to customize various aspects of their attack, ranging from offense to defense. Another new weapon that Kratos uses is the Guardian Shield.
Kratos also uses hand-to-hand combat. The use of the blades of chaos, which are attached to chains, is also a feature that was introduced in Ascension.

Years after defeating the Olympians, Kratos now lives in Midgard with his son Atreus. When he is confronted by a strange stranger with godly powers, he seemingly kills him. Upon reaching the Witch of the Woods, Kratos and Atreus are met by the kindly Witch of the Woods.
The two travel to the Lake of the Nine, where they run into the last remaining Giant. The Witch of the Woods then instructs them to use the Bifrst to travel to Alfheim.
They eventually reach Midgard's peak, where they encounter a conversation between a man who used to attack them and Mmir, who is imprisoned. They then learn that the highest peak is in Jtunheim.
Upon learning about another passage, Mmir tells Kratos to execute him and have his head resurrected by the Witch of the Woods. He is then warned that he should tell Atreus about his true nature.
In the search for the portal to Jtunheim, Kratos, Atreus, and Mmir are attacked by Baldur's nephews. While Kratos fends off the attackers, Atreus falls ill.
With the help of Freya, Atreus is able to retrieve the heart of a troll in Helheim. After returning home, Kratos learns that he has a terrifying vision of Zeus.
Atreus becomes more arrogant and, despite Kratos' orders, kills a weakened Modi. When they reach Midgard's peak, they are ambushed by Baldur, who destroys Jtunheim's portal.
In this episode, Atreus makes amends with Kratos, who also learns about the relationship between Baldur and Freya. Mmir also learns that there is a way to reach Jtunheim without losing his eye.
Baldur is defeated after being hit by Atreus' arrow, which breaks Freya's spell. He then tries to strangle Freya, but is eventually defeated.
Atreus talks about the violent acts that he and his predecessors have committed. Kratos then tells him to learn from their mistakes and not repeat them.
In Jtunheim, they find a temple full of pictures depicting their journey. They also discover that Faye, who stayed behind in Midgard, is half Giant and one-quarter mortal.
In this episode, they finally meet Atreus, who reveals that he was after Faye the entire time. They then spread her ashes at the peak.
