Kratos has always been the star of the God of War series. Whether in its hack-n-slash sex mini-game days or his more reserved time as a father, the franchise has been a story of one man. The introduction of Kratos’s Son Atreus in God of War (2018) gave him something more to care about, earning it the title of the ultimate dad game. But the early hours of God of War: Ragnarök flip the script entirely, putting Kratos in a supporting role, by letting Atreus take charge.
