Atreus went on a long journey of self-discovery throughout the events of God of War Ragnarok. He’s come a long way as a character across the series' past two games. Atreus has grown since being called “boy” in God of War 2018. The young god learned he wasn’t just Atreus. He was also Loki, one of the last Jotnar.
