As Kratos embarks on his perilous journey, he’s joined by his brother, Deimos, who was thought to be dead. The two brothers must put aside their differences and work together to overcome the challenges that lie ahead. Along the way, they’ll encounter new characters, including the enigmatic and powerful goddess, Thetis.
God of War: Ascension is a worthy addition to the God of War series, offering a thrilling narrative, engaging gameplay, and stunning visuals. While it may not revolutionize the series, it provides a satisfying experience that fans of the series will love. As a prequel, it offers a unique perspective on Kratos’ backstory, adding depth to the character and the world he inhabits.
The soundtrack, composed by Bear McCreary, is equally impressive, with a haunting and epic score that complements the game’s narrative and action sequences. The sound effects and voice acting are also top-notch, bringing the characters and world to life.
