TheGod of Warseries has take Kratos from Ancient Greece to Scandinavia - and conceive it or not , his journeying is glimpse in a entirely unrelated video game . It ’s a theory beat by several fans who first noted some similarity between a surprise boss battle in the 2D sidescrollerShovel Knight , and the setting of the most recentGod of Warvideo plot . Similarities that can now be locked into Harlan F. Stone as a verbatim connectedness , good manners ofGod of Wardirector Cory Barlog .
You want to see the FULL story of Kratos ? Then you ’ll need to playShovel Knight , too .
The confirmation come as something of a surprise during San Diego Comic - Con , when Barlog talkedKratos alongside Kong director Jordan Vogt - RobertsandDaredevilshowrunner Steven S. DeKnight . When addressing challenges or pushback they received for sealed goals in their reboots or re - imaginings , Barlog admit that shifting theGod of Warseries to Norse mythology was an promiscuous enough sell . But shoot Kratos into that existence as the hero once again ?
Everyone was like , ' Really ? You wanna still utilise Kratos ? You should practice somebody else , you should start a new one … What , is Kratos just going to put on a backpack on and head up to Scandinavia ? ' And I did n’t order them at the time , but in my caput I went ' YES . That is exactly what he is go to do . ' I mean he in reality has a backpack and everything .
And here : we made a piddling pile with Yacht Club Games . I do n’t cognise if anyone knows the very talented people at Yacht Club Games , that did Shovel Knight . Kratos appeared in Shovel Knight .
Those who playedShovel Knightare likely cognisant of the cameo , with a strange , hooded traveler barking to Athena before doing conflict with the biz ’s titulary hero . Take a look :
debate the popularity and extolment for the atavism political platform , it did n’t seem strange for Sony to okay of the cameo . A rarefied sense of humor put on display - right through to him present a " Shovel of Chaos " - but ultimately harmless . Still , the parting tidings spoken by Kratos , revealing that his journey was occupy him"elsewhere"stuck in people ’s computer storage . specially when his next game , arrange years into his time to come , saw him on a snowy landscape painting yet again .
According to Barlog , with tongue constitute securely in cheek , that crosswalk is canon as far as he ’s have-to doe with :
He appears on his journey from Greece to Scandinavia . So that was in reality a part of the God of War story where he abruptly became 8 - bit … it ’s canon . Wait for the box set .
Who knew ? Now all that remains is for the Shovel Knight to barge in onThor and Kratos in God of War 5and demand to know why this occult traveler gifted him a shoddy shovel as a endowment .
God of Waris usable now for the PlayStation 4 .
