God Of War Ragnarök Gets First Story Synopsis For Kratos & Atreus

God of War Ragnarök's first story synopsis details Kratos and Atreus' upcoming journey. Sony Santa Monica Studio has kept updates on God of War Ragnarök pretty close to the chest since it was first properly revealed in a PlayStation Showcase back in September 2020. At that time, the only substantial information on the game that was given was that Ragnarök would follow the events of 2018's God of War, that Thor would be playing a larger role than in 2018's game, and that the sequel would not be directed by Cory Barlog.

At the beginning of July, PlayStation began giving updates on God of War Ragnarök, including a new cinematic trailer, collectors editions, and what perks come with pre-ordering the game. The «Father and Son» trailer announced that the long-awaited sequel would be arriving on November 9 and also revealed Ragnarök's box art. Two of God of War Ragnarök's pre-order editions (the Collector's Edition and the Jöntar Edition) come with a 16" replica of Mjölnir, Thor's hammer.
