He rears his massive head near the end of the trailer, and for some reason Kratos’ son is able to communicate with the friendly serpent. Why is that? Well, in between all the fraught and foreboding dialogue there’s plenty of axe-swinging, monster-chopping, and massive beasts - even a friendly giant snake. The giant snake is, in fact, the world serpent from ancient Norse mythology. It’s a new game, in a new style, but if nothing else this new trailer cements the fact that it is still quintessentially God of War. But there are a few allusions to Kratos’ dark past in the most recent trailer, illustrating that the past games and their - at times problematic - stories will weigh heavily on Kratos. The upcoming God of War installment will serve as something of a soft reboot for the venerable Sony series - which was once a flagship game for the then-budding PlayStation 2 console. Accompanied by his son, Kratos embarks on a perilous journey to do something apparently very dangerous - we’re not sure what exactly but this latest trailer definitely piqued our interest. Sony unveiled a brand-new trailer for the upcoming God of War 4, painting a grim portrait of Kratos’ future in the frozen lands ruled by the ancient Norse gods.
