Barlog, Cory (January 23, 2018). "God of War Out April 20 on PS4". PlayStation.Blog. Sony Interactive Entertainment. Archived from the original on April 13, 2018 . Retrieved January 23, 2018. This unique combat system is due in large part to weapon and armor modifiers. Honestly, If the whole game just involved throwing your Leviathan Axe — Kratos’s weapon of choice — at enemies, it’d still be good. But I don’t think the developers were happy stopping there.Corey Burton reprised the role, having previously voiced Zeus in God of War II (2007), God of War III (2010), and God of War: Ascension (2013). In explaining the actor change, Barlog said that the way the previous games were made, they were able to have someone else do the motion capture instead of the voice actor. Although Carson had done the motion capture for Kratos in Ascension, Barlog said the actor change was made because of the type of camera work they wanted to do. For the new camera work, they needed someone who was closer to Kratos' size to do the motion capture along with a child. Carson was unsuitable for this because he was much shorter than Kratos, who is over 6-feet tall: "Offsetting [Carson's height] for the size of a child, it turned out it was going to be almost impossible to try and actually shoot them and go in and redo the animations." [58] Judge was chosen because he was 6-foot-3 and had the body of a professional football player. He was also chosen because of the chemistry with his then-10-year-old co-star, Sunny Suljic, whose opinion was also sought in making the decision; out of all the auditions, he liked Judge the most. The two bonded well, and Judge described his time with Suljic as time he had missed with his own children. In stepping into the role of Kratos, Judge took it as an opportunity to add something new to the character. He researched the character and Carson's performance but decided not to imitate it. Since Santa Monica was going in a new direction, he decided to start fresh. Judge was thrown off when he first read the script, saying it "was a real script," and not just "a way to get into battles," which is why he decided to take the role. [58] He said, "it was really this great story of this relationship and this crazy mythology." [58] While Judge did all of Kratos' motion capture for the cinematic scenes, stuntman Eric Jacobus did Kratos' combat motion capture; Jacobus was found by God of War 's animators on YouTube. Instead of going directly to Santa Monica to audition, he recorded an audition tape and sent that in and was hired immediately. [59] Former WWE wrestler Shad Gaspard also performed some of the motion capture for Kratos; Gaspard's body was digitally scanned as the model for Kratos' new look in the game. [60]

Other characters include Mímir ( Alastair Duncan), who claims to be the smartest man alive, and the Huldra Brothers— Brok (Robert Craighead) and Sindri ( Adam J. Harrington)—dwarves who appear at various points in the world and assist Kratos and Atreus by forging new gear. Weapons forged by the Huldra Brothers, including Thor's hammer Mjölnir, were used by the Æsir gods. They also forged Kratos' Leviathan Axe, which originally belonged to Faye, who also gifted Kratos her Guardian Shield. [16] The spirit of the Greek goddess Athena ( Carole Ruggier) [c] makes a cameo appearance, and Zeus ( Corey Burton) [d] appears to Kratos as an illusion in Helheim.

In God of War, gameplay and cutscenes all take place within the same continuous shot. If you’ve ever seen Punch-Drunk Love, you know what I’m talking about. A single, continuous shot that starts focused on Kratos at the beginning of the game follows the adventure without blinking once through the entire adventure. When it was decided that God of War would be revealed at E3 2016, Sony wanted McCreary to perform his original score with a live orchestra at the press conference. McCreary opened the show with the new main theme before the unveiling of God of War and performed the gameplay demo's music live during the presentation. [67] On January 13, 2017, a live recording from E3 2016 of God of War 's overture was released for a limited time free of charge. Barlog released the overture as a thank you to fans for God of War 's E3 2016 trailer reaching fifteen million views on YouTube. [71] Release [ edit ] Gilyadov, Alex (August 8, 2018).
