‘The Herald Of The World Serpent…The Ghost-White Ragnarok Incarnate,

His Very Form Foretelling Our Doom…Will Rise, To Face The Son Of Thunder.’

‘Greetings everyone, and welcome to Episode 1 of God Of War Podcast,

appropriately titled ‘A New Beginning’ - we are, after all, starting our own journey right alongside God Of War itself, where we’ll be dissecting, discussing and debating every aspect of this new title in a long-form/in-depth weekly format, having the odd interview or two, and lastly we feature a section at the end of each week’s episode that’s entirely devoted to parsing out, making deductions from, and imagining the potential connections that might exist between Norse Lore and God Of War.

Albert is joined this week (the first, as I can now confirm, of many future episodes with the guy) by the unequalled analyst, consummate theorist, pre-eminent Norse Lore/God Of War scholar and fast friend, Cygnus (also known as Ilyas),

To discuss this past week in news, exchange ideas, swap speculations, and offer up predictions on plot, gameplay, mechanics and much, much more.

Cygnus expands on his Hathor-as-Atreus’ mother theory, and Albert posits that Jörmungandr’s pale scales and Kratos’ ghost-white skin are no coincidence - could their allegiance have long been fated? Has the rejected albino god-child serpent finally found his chosen enforcer to fulfil his one earthly desire:

To slay the God of Thunder, Thor himself?

It is true that Sindri and Brokk, the dwarven Huldra Brothers, forged the Axe Leviathan precisely to be a foil for Mjolnir…could their respective bears be all but destined to clash before this Norse odyssey closes? Listen in to find out…’

Norse Lore from the Poetic Edda, as retold by Daniel McCoy (Published Norse Mythology Author)

Greetings Everyone, and welcome to God Of War Podcast -

A weekly gathering of friends and peers for the discussion, speculation and in-depth analysis of Sony Santa Monica’s upcoming Father & Son Odyssey and masterpiece-in-the- making, GOD OF WAR.

This epic saga, borne from the ashes of tragedy and grief and led by the promise of regaining a God’s long-lost humanity through his fate-chosen Son, set amidst the snow- capped valleys and re-lit rune-carved forests of Norse Myth, truly marks a landmark evolution in, and genuinely represents the ultimate embodiment of, the maturation and growth of the interactive medium.

Writer and Director Cory Barlog, who brought us the second chapter of Kratos’ story over a decade ago, and his team of phenomenally talented artists, programmers and designers, have similarly embarked upon a perilous journey of their own, creating a living, breathing vision of Norse Mythology the likes of which have never been seen in any medium.

The level of care, passion, love and sheer attention-to-detail and authenticity being poured into realising this vision from Barlog’s tireless and peerless colleagues —

Art Team Lead Ariel Angelotti, Principal character Artist Rafael Grassetti, Lead animator Bruno Velazquez, Gameplay Engineering Lead Jeet Shro and Composer Bear McCreery, among countless more -

Evokes and arguably surpasses the exhaustive and faithful lengths to which director Peter Jackson, writers Fran Walsh & Phillipa Boyens, head of Special E ects Richard Taylor, lead illustrators Alan Lee & John Howe and Composer Howard Shore went to, in order to bring Tolkien’s Middle Earth to spectacular, emotionally nuanced and vibrant life.

Beyond being simply the next chapter in a long and winding tale, GOD OF WAR is the full realisation of an entire real-world mythology, one long-deserving of a portrayal of the highest quality, nuance and respect. And so, a long-forgotten, timeless tale is set to unfold...
