Du neuf pour God of War Ragnarök !
For PlayStation gamers most eager to find out what Santa Monica Studio has cooked up with the sequel to the adventures of Kratos and Atreus, this holiday is a blessing. Quite simply because we have the right to a short six-minute recap of the father-son epic released in 2018 and that a leak has just revealed to us a very interesting element regarding one of the most anticipated characters of this sequel on PS4 et PS5.
So far, the various excerpts published have revealed familiar faces – even if Atreus has grown in stature – and newcomers who will be of great help to the ancient warrior of Sparta and his offspring, in particular Týr and Angrboda. However, Santa Monica Studio has remained quite mysterious concerning the occupants of Asgard that we will be able to meet. If we were able to quickly discover the god Thor, who is far from resembling the image that Disney has been portraying for a few years, his father, Odin, is rather resistant to the idea of revealing his face at this stage. Nevertheless, it is now possible to discover the first sketches.
This Odin doesn’t look like the one in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla
Indeed, if Ubisoft recently delivered its own version of the god of gods of Asgard in the DLC ofAssassin’s Creed Valhalla : L’Aube du Ragnarök, PlayStation and Santa Monica are set to do the same in the coming months. However, thanks to AestheticGamer (also known as Dusk Golem), it has already been possible to observe on Reddit one of the character’s concept art. Since this weekend, the design shared by the insider has made players react strongly, some admitting to being surprised at the result when others notice the family resemblance with Baldur, met in the 2018 reboot.
In the comments, the leaker notably spoke on various subjects, including revealing information of this kind while limiting himself so as not to offend or hurt the developers of the targeted titles. In this case, additional information has been provided to rule on the veracity of this concept art, now certified as legitimate.. However, nothing is set in stone regarding Odin’s appearance in God of War: Ragnarökand it might be that the members of the studio have made some adjustments to his look, hardest to design according to the artistic director. Maybe we’ll have the chance to discover all this in a future trailer!
