God of War Ragnarok saw a brief but interesting gameplay reveal today, courtesy of Game Informer. In their teaser, they showed off Kratos using the Leviathan Axe, Blades of Chaos, as well as the new armshields, Dauntless and Stonewall.

In the teaser, Kratos was far more mobile, grappling to areas above his reach and cutting down foes with wicked elemental-based attacks. This article will explore what fans can expect in the upcoming God of War Ragnarok.

According to Santa Monica Studios’ Mihir Sheth and Denny Yeh, the old studio motto of “Play with your food” was one of the inspirations for God of War Ragnarok. It shows through the recent footage as well. The combat is more lively and animated.

In this most recent teaser for the upcoming God of War title, Kratos cuts down the lizardfolk Grims with his various tools of destruction. Atreus is more helpful than in the previous game as well. He can stun foes, break obstructions, use his bow as a melee weapon, and can still summon spectral allies.

Combat has evolved in God of War Ragnarok, thanks to a new series of attacks that Kratos has at his disposal. Mashing or tapping the Triangle button will unleash the “Weapon Signature Move” of whichever weapon he is actively using at the moment.

When it comes to the Leviathan Axe, he uses “Frost Awaken,” and the Blades of Chaos activate “Whiplash.” The former does extra damage by freezing his foe, and Whiplash incinerates them to deal extra damage.

This is significantly better than how combat worked in the previous entry. In God of War 2018, Kratos used Triangle to recall his Axe, but other than that, the button did nothing. If players held the Blades of Chaos and hit the Triangle, it would just switch back to the Leviathan Axe. The
