God of War Ragnarok gets an official story synopsis

It’s wild that we still know surprisingly little about God of War Ragnarok‘s story despite all the hype, other than it involving Kratos and Atreus once again. Finally, though, we have some idea of what’s going on in Midgard.

Last week, the official PlayStation store page for God of War Ragnarok got an update loosely revealing what the story entails.

“From Santa Monica Studio comes the sequel to the critically acclaimed God of War (2018),” God of War Ragnarok‘s synopsis reads. “Fimbulwinter is well underway. Kratos and Atreus must journey to each of the Nine Realms in search of answers as Asgardian forces prepare for a prophesied battle that will end the world.”

“Along the way they will explore stunning, mythical landscapes, and face fearsome enemies in the form of Norse gods and monsters. The threat of Ragnarök grows ever closer. Kratos and Atreus must choose between their own safety and the safety of the realms.”

Yeah, that tracks with Kratos’ other bloody outings. None of this is particularly earth-shattering, but God of War Ragnarok hasn’t had an in-depth trailer since Sony’s PlayStation Showcase in 2021, so we’ll take it.

God of War Ragnarok is coming out on Nov. 9, 2022, for PS4 and PS5. Pre-orders are already live, so hop to it if you want a fancy collector’s edition.
