God of War: Ragnarok is coming later this year, set for a November 9, 2022 release date. The game will continue the story of Kratos and Atreus in the realm of the Norse gods as they come to terms with the consequences of their actions from the previous game.
As a new trailer was released a few days back, we got to see even more new footage from the game and a quick peek at Thor fighting Kratos. The trailer is chock full of hints and details that reveal where the story might be headed in this sequel to 2018’s God of War.
Below, I’ll highlight five of the biggest new story details I could decipher from the new trailer for God of War: Ragnarok. This will involve theorizing about the game’s main story and character arcs, so beware of any possible spoilers in case what I theorize might turn out to be true.

One thing that has been made quite clear from the beginning is that God of War: Ragnarok will feature a story centered on Atreus. Both trailers for the game have opened with Atreus speaking the first words and taking the initiative, so it is pretty obvious that the “boy” will be the protagonist of this tale.
In the last trailer, we were led to believe that he may grow up to be a bratty child, but the new one paints him in a much more composed light. He is concerned for his father's safety, to which Kratos has one of the most baller replies I’ve ever heard: “Death can have me when it earns me.”
Atreus is also seemingly keeping secrets from Kratos, which the latter is none too happy about. But after the last game, I’m happy to see that the shoe is on the other foot now. As long as it is not drawn out for too long, it should be fun to see Kratos get a taste of his own medicine.
