“God of War” Soft Reboot Comes to PS4 in 2018
Coming to Sony’s PS4 in early 2018 is Santa Monica Studio’s third-person action-adventure video game, “God of War”.
The eighth in the franchise, 2018’s “God of War” is said to be a soft reboot, with Nordic Mythology being its backdrop. Kratos returns as the main protagonist who now mentors his own son Afreus as he continues to master the wrath that had controlled him throughout the past years.
The game will boast of facets almost identical to RPGs including archery knowledge points, and Spartan Rage timed-ability in battle. The latter appears to be a new version of the “Rage” ability from previous iterations.
One of the game’s most noticeable elements not present in the previous installments is the over-the-shoulder free camera, unlike the fixed cinematic camera in the first installments.
Sony had revealed the trailer to “God of War” in the recently concluded, E3 conference. You can watch it here:
