God of War Ragnarok looks excellent in the recent trailer, and we're really looking forward to finding out how Kratos and Atreus' Norse adventure concludes in the sequel.

News God of War Ragnarok's Camera Is a Single Shot from Start to Finish, Just Like the Last Game
Impressive, boy
2018's God of War is an excellent game for many reasons, but one of its most unique aspects is its cinematography. From the very start of the adventure to the closing sequence, the camera never once cuts — it's one seamless shot all the way through, whether it's gameplay or a cutscene. Perhaps unsurprisingly, it looks as though God...
News God of War's Tyr Is Shorter Than Lady Dimitrescu
Still a big lad, though
Tyr is a name we heard a lot during the course of 2018's God of War, but we never got to meet the Norse god in the flesh.

That's all very exciting, and...
