As someone who is playing God of War for the first time with this new release, I'm extremely grateful for this video. I was curious about the history and it's so much more than anything I could have imagined. Thanks!

@@picklerick3593 oh boi if you only knew the Kratos full story lol and played him in ps 2, ps3
@@ArjanTV there is a full 3 hour long video that plays everything in chronological order it looked like a movie.
Actually Kratos released that hope to mankind when he stabbed himself. Athena wanted that hope for her own purpose. After he stabbed himself she screamed "They wont know what to do with it"
mrcscnnn21 wats hope wat r u talking about?
wakyl Hakymzaada pashayeewar The power that Kratos had obtained from Pandora's Box. Come on dude you can't be that slow?
Regan Shane wat where did u get dat from I finished the game three times za hell?
Regan Shane I think there was some mention of it at the end I dont know
The kid pandora was.babbling about hope also
Annoying
Regan Shane the mortal kratos
Surprising how he did all of this while wearing sandals
do you expect him to wear jordans air 1's or some thing
@@PAYNE_0 he stole hermes jordans 💀
He chose drip over stats
@@PAYNE_0 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I can’t believe he wears his wife’s ashes. That’s WAY too dark.
wife AND daughter
Wife, daughter and Prometheus (during the second game and loses it after losing his magics in the beginning of the third game)
He’s the ultimate badass dude
It's like Cubone wearing his mother skull.😂
You mean to white
You guys forgot to mention that he killed him self in the end so all the hope he possessed gets free for all humanity instead of Athena having control of it!!!
Kasra .B he didn't kill his self he impaled his self with the blade and didn't die as you can clearly see at the end of the game
Alton Worthy true, that is what i meant😃
They got the ending wrong actually. They said Athena wanted to take Hope to give it to mankind, but that is not true. She wanted to keep it to herself. Kratos decided to release to Hope to mankind instead of giving it to her.
MrFrenglish exactly
MrFrenglish hope? Wat r u talking about
Kratos: "making my way downtown.
Waging war
Killing gods
And im norse bound"
Da da da da, DA DA.
And I need her.
Da da da da, DA DA.
And we miss her.
Da da da da, DA DA.
And Now I wonder..

Lol

Do you think gods will pass me by?
Cuz you know I walk a thousand miles just to seeeeee yoouuuuuuu. Tonight. (FAYE!!!!)
Lmao
What I like so far about the recent game is that you don’t really have to have played the previous titles. Which was a smart move considering the first game came out 14 years ago and few people would replay them all. So long as you know that Kratos is a demigod and killed all the Greek pantheon you’re pretty much good! Obviously his history is more complex, but to appeal to a wider audience this was the best way to handle the story.
Are you out of your mind? Not having play all the titles means you played God of War 2018 and it was meaningless
Nah, I've played God Of War 2018 only, and it was really fun@@fiestagamingclan
@@TwekionYeah so far. Just watching a couple lore video like this one and playing the 2018 one is fine for me.
I'm really enjoying the new one
I demand a god of war movie now, IT WOULD BE SPECTACULAR!!!!!
Get the rock to do the body of kratos
photoshoot
no
No movie
No. It would be awful.
You could say what you want, but when he ascended to the throne of God of War, it was a most badass way to end a video game.
He is the new *TITLE OF THE GAME SAID IN AN EPIC VOICE* - *EPIC MUSIC HIT* - *CREDIT ROLL*
Now THAT is how you end a videogame.
Right. Shit had me jumping.
Yeah real talk. Was hoping he'd take the throne of Olympus but im sure the series is headed to bigger and better things.
I agree it was badass it was the first gow game I ever played
This is actually the best summary of this franchise i've seen on youtube, cheers 👌 you absolutely nailed it
Thanks for the awesome feedback. 🤗
For sure m y brother🎉🎉
I see improvement
I just started this series with the newest game and was wondering why tf kratos is so grumpy,,,looks like i found why
you got to play the other games there awsome
Play the series in the following order. Then you will understand.
1. God of War Ascension
2. God of War Chains of Olympus
3. God of War 1
4. God of War Ghost of Sparta
5. God of War 2
6. God of War 3
7. God of War 2018.
And enjoy it.
@@jsktamilgamer5699 but first you watch the opening cutscene in god of war then get out if it then play Ascension
I'm watching this in 2022 before playing GoW now that it's on PC. That was such an awesome summary. I can only imagine the insane amount of time and effort videos like this take. Props to you and keep putting out valuable content!
Same
Well now that it’s released, what do you think of it?
it’s so boring
That what your parents said when they raised you!
Me too but in December of 23. I beat 1 and 2 but wanted to see if 3 had something I missed since he has a kid now. Guess not. I'm sure I'll learn on my way
God of War is such a great series in that it reframes the notion of who actually is the true villain... Athena
She wanted the hope and power of olympus for herself, so she deceived Kratos over the year into killing all who actually stood in her way of true power. She foresaw the future and usefulness for Kratos early on, which is why she told Ares to spare him as a child when they took Demos. And she is the only God to ever truly give the “how-to’s” and the “who-to-kill-next” missions for Kratos over the course of the series.
Kratos is the best anti-hero in that by his own selfish and violent venture for revenge and redemption, he ultimately and unknowingly gives the hope and power back to the people, who have been blindly accepting and worshipping the gods who sat on top of their pedestal of Mt. Olympus
...I’m so excited for God Of War!!
JP Vergara gows life lesson is to not trust white women
Finally someone got a same view to Athena as me.
Same
JP Vergara then he got killed by his own son loki the end...
bobbyw223 ROFL🤣🤣🤣🤣
No wonder kratos is angry The Gods have been screwing him for a long time
Jthegemini 86 they made him suffer when he was innocent
Tbh he screwed himself
yeet how ?
where it all started...he pleaded to the gods to win over a battle he lost
Rykimaruh They Look his brother and Zeus abandoned kratos instead of raising kratos on Olympus.
Imagine how powerful kratos is when he’s still the god of war.
Kratos on Gow4 is actually stronger than Kratos gow1,2,3 on brute strength wdym lmao
@@jaysen4992 kratos was strongest gow2 before the Zeus trick.
@@jaysen4992 cap
@@tochimclaren no kratos was the strongest at the end of gow 3 right before he killed himself
Cap
“who feels a wrong disturbance in the force...” HAHAHAH that’s a good one 🤣
Its funny zeus was worried kratos would kill him but he's only going to kill him because he attacked not cause he wanted to. Zeus signed his own death.
A self-fulfilling prophecy
It's quite common to see that throughout Greek culture.
Yeah that, er, that tends to happen a lot in Greek myths.
Same with kidnapping deimos
He played himself lol
Not even kratos can kill himself 😂😂😂
Dude, you're absoloutely right and you are crazy. how could u think about that? 😅😀🤪
Lol true 😂😂😂
😂😂😂 you made my day man the dude is fucked up 5 times in the underworld killing zeus nearly all gods the man is crazy
how to hack
Yes he can, he ciuld easily jump of a high cliff or stab himself.
You are very wrobg with this statement.
R/woosh
Its been years...
The only thing that i can remember are the sex scenes
Unmmmmmmmm
Nice
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Atreus has the most insane family imaginable
I mean his father is literally wearing his half sister and errrr step mom?
One of my favorite God of War lore pieces is the tattoo/birthmarks, I shows the idea that trying to avoid a prophecy will just set it in motion
Im so happy of how far god of war has reached ive been there since the beginning ive just formed a new ocean with my tears
"You are now the god of war" now thats what i call levelling up!!
One of the most underrated stories. I will tell my kids the story of Kratos lol
How
Percephone?Ha killed!
Ares? Ha killed
Zues? Ha killed
And all the rest
gay
They should tell this story in religion classes in greece
@Gael ever heard of a joke?
@@rohankishibe3696 kratos? Ha killed
It's not God of war without trip to underworld
Chris Floyd there is one ❤️
Without spoiling too much, you won't be disappointed in that regard.
Well, Hellheim is pretty much underworld
Did he go to the underworld in Ascension? I dont remember.
Never played ascension idk I just just say that as somewhat as a joke because he been kill put in underworld and came back in basically every game
Thank you for getting right into it and not monologuing for the first 10 minutes like most youtubers.
Loved this! I grew up playing God of War and this video hit the nostalgia spot!
Can I say how well this was summarized? This was really well summarized
Kratos is so OP that he can't kill himself with the sword of olympus
Currently playing 2018 god of war on pc, never played the others but this seems like a great one to start on almost like im seeing everything through Artreaus perspective as we both piece things together as the story goes
By far the best GoW/Kratos summary I've seen; thanks for this.
God of War (2018) releases on April 20th!
I can’t wait to get back to Kratos, I’ve missed the ugly bugger.
PlayStationGrenade I love you
Like a friend
I can't wait for it *-*
PlayStationGrenade Olympus is destroyed because of the rage that consumes you kratos what more will you destroy
Awsome video, i'm crazy about the new god of war and this reminded me of all we have been trough to get to the new game, thanks and you got a new subscriber!
Best Summary Ever
Thanks Noah! 😃
This was a great video I have played every single one of these games except for the ghost of Sparta and you did an excellent job of summarizing the content Kudos my good man kudos
Thanks Kerry. 😊👍
I have beat the original game twice on PS2. The Ares fight was difficult, but the Steam Minotaur is the most difficult. I fell in love with God of War. It's the thing where you play the first game and instantly fall in love... Love at first play
Who remembers that one guy...you know...
"No, not you again" guy
The Ship's Captain! LOL
He was first killed in gow 1..inside hydra's stomach
And then in gow 2..when the barbarian king summons undead
the captain
The ship captain
I still can't get my head around the fact that kratos is the dude that ended the Greek gods, THE GREEK GODS! How is he not the most famous and strongest fictional character ever? Instead of Superman,Goku, or even Saitama.
Superman can move at faster than light speed, and can punch a planet so hard it shatters. Not even all the greek gods combined could do that. Kratos is piss weak compared to superman. Superman can literally kill kratos by looking at him (he can literally incinerate people). Kratos is strong within his own universe, but not compared to other mythical characters. That's why.
@@kingofbudokai superman is a shiteater
thanos
Not in the blink of an eye, but in the snap of a finger..
@@kingofbudokai so boring how dc and marvel comics have so much characters that are overpowered lazy writting even tho i like superman kratos is a way better character
thx, that was very helpful and informative.
Oh Waw !! I played all the parts , unnatural how many parts of the story i missed !! Thank you for the great summary💖
Almost every aspect of the entire story is properly covered in this video! Great work!
Great job!!
Thanks for the great vid. I am amped to play God Of War (2018)!
Thanks for the narration, finally got my head around the story, before starting 2018 on PC today
THANK YOU! I've (sadly) never played or watched any of God of War but I've been interested in it really much. Now, as the new God of War came out, I finally started playing it and that is a really good summary to understand the backstory. Thank you! :)
Odin and Thor are next!
Well, because Kratos [spoiler spoiler spoiler spoiler spoiler spoiler], Thor is definitely next.
Isaac Gleeth spoiler he only kills Thors sons no other gods or anyother thing worth to note
But, now that they're dead, Thor is angry and will hunt down Kratos because he also killed another Norse deity.
Freya is bae
@@9mstone66 , He (Kratos) kills Thor's nephews, he also kills Baldur. At the end of the game there is a cutscene showing Thor himself reaching for his hammer in a showdown between Kratos and himself, and Thor is PISSED!
As a pc player who never had the opportunity to play the god of war series until now, this recap of the story is amazing. Thank you!
Same I played it for the first time on pc and wow what a masterpiece of a game
It feels so good to listen to the story after playing the games 10 times
Awesome video...im so hyped for the return. Just in time for the end of my exams
Tapiwa Muza hell yeah man, me too!
I remember all of the story but it's nice seeing a good summary of it again. When God of War (2018) was announced I was saying to myself it's going to be interesting to see how he survived his wounds and how the current setting of God of War came about and ultimately what is his new purpose in the new game coming out April 20th. Its going to be great.
I enjoyed every second of the video. Great work man 👏
Thank you so much for this video! Just picked up the game for PC and needed this!
What a great video man. Very well made and put together. Clear, simple and straight to the point.
Thanks for this video man. :)
Fantastic video! I completely loved it. Thank you so much!
What a journey. I don't think a series or movie can capture the spectacular colossal over the top moments that the game has had. I'm more than Happy with the latest game sequels and I can always look back replay and remember
This is the best storyline i've ever seen in a video game, props to the people who came up with all this.

Thank you for doing this video, it’s super well explained. I watched someone else’s summary and it was awful! I found yours and I understand everything!!! Sick video
Absolutely amazing summary
Thank you so much for making this! 👏 didn’t want to have to rewatch old play throughs
Instead of watchinng old play throughs, why dont you play it yourself? Its fun.
@@GoodOneLULE what if he don't have all the games
@@sniperghost1017 i dont know what i was thinking when i made this comment
@@GoodOneLULE ok np I only god the 3rd one
Thank God
Watched like 10 LONGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG videos never understood the story till now! THANKS!
Taha Iftekhar i mean through the years ive played all the games multiple times and stipl didnt know some of the stuff mentioned here
Wow wow wow very clear and precise explanation. Thank u very much 👏👏👏
Wow I had no idea the story was actually this good. I was expecting some basic story of him killing all the gods but this makes me way happier to play/watch GoW PS4
Thanks so much for this. I never played the first trilogy only watched my husband play it sometimes. But I saw this and had to have it so I checked your video prior to getting the new GOW. So far it's amazing.
Subscribed! Very nice vid! I played the GoW games, but had no idea about the exact timelines. Can’t wait for the 20th
Fantastic recap. Thank you!
Preparing to play God of War on PC, thanks for this video recap. It's been a long time since I played the first two chapters (skipped the rest) on my old playstations :)
Best YT channel. Love you bro💙
Best game series.
Amazing story inspired by the greek mythology...
I've watched this like 10 times and i think i've got it all down now. Props for breaking down all 8 (I think? lol) gow games into one, concise video. 👍
Had to rewind that about 20 times to keep track of it but weew! Bring on God of War 2018!
Played the 3 on ps but not of the other on mobile. It is a nice catch up to all the episodes so far story wise! Thank you good sire :)
Why thank you sir. 🤗
Best vid i rate it a infinity out of 10
Here from 2022 with the PC port! Thanks for the refresher!
My God, what a story is 'God of War!' Thank you for uploading and for telling us the story! :-)
Great work on this video! I was hoping something I missed that tells us how he loses the blades of chaos but I guess I didn't miss anything... yet lol. Hopefully they explain it in the new game then.
Thank you for making this video
Thank you for watching. 😃👍
i agree, i have a bunch of friends who are raving about GOW 2018 and ive never played a single one. im gonna buy it now!
This is the most accurate and perfect video to know what happened in his past....was too late for me i had to watch all the games cuz i didnt find a vid like this
Heck dude! Never played any of them, and is just about to start god of war (PC)... Thanks so much for this!
The mighty beard will protect him!!
Thank you for this video!! Been attempting to put the story together so this is perfect! Quick questions though if anyone can answer; Has Kratos time travelled into the Norse age for the new one? Or is he a reincarnation? Is he still a God? Thanks!
That Ultimate Warrior splice made me laugh! Nice work.
Perfect refresher before I jump back into God of War..
I played all the God of War games on different systems and with the upcoming game coming...I seriously need to get a PS4
Tatsuo Static I actually did bought ps4 just for God of War.
same
jk I already have it but I'd get it again for spider man
buy the ps4 pro god of war bundle
ImNotAGuineaPig Me to this game made me want ps4 just for it
Now I understand everything. Thanks!
I watched a video before I didn't understand what he was saying thank you for explaining it in the most simple way
Thanks for this. Im playing GOW 2018 and its my first time playing one, because I watched this before hand, a lot of little easter eggs made sense to me, plus the big pay off with him getting his weapons back
I'm also currently playing Gow 2018 and it's my first and those blades are amazing
As someone who had played ALL the prior GoW games, I was jumping with excitement when I realized we were going back to retrieve his chaos blades. Up until that point in the 2018 game it didn’t quite fully feel like God of War.
The puzzles and fantastic level designs were certainly very God of War-like. Kratos’s mannerisms were much more subdued than I was used to, but was fitting for a much older version of him.
The Epic battle at the very start of the game was keeping with the tradition of early epic battles (though it wasn’t nearly as epic as previous ones had been).
BUT….. as soon as Kratos retrieved the Chaos blades… That was when it REALLY felt like a God of War game.
(Don’t get me wrong, I was still thoroughly enjoying the game up to that point. But that moment was such an awesome feeling to finally be able to return to that familiar feeling, unleashing the full power of Kratos. Very well done… it sure got me geeking out big time)
How to go to Norse Mythology
1 Go to a mountain
2 Get "sorta" killed
3 Crawl off the mountain
BAM! You're in Norse Mythology!
Omg that would be so cool i wanna try it now :D
You are telling like that this is so easy🤣🤣😂😂
I tried it it didn't work
Wait so north mythology came from where? Also does it not have he greek gods in it either? Im so lost someone help lol
Norse*
Awesome video !!! new sub !!!
That was a great video! Thanks for posting!
Thanks for making this video I never knew the history of the games until now
Gaming story lines has came a long way since the days of Mario Bros.
20 more mins till its released on Steam some im here to catch up before playing aha
Well that was awesome!! Blast from the past! Now it’s time to play this new one!!
Very awesome dude, keep it up
7:38 dream on dream on dream on aaaaaaaaaaaaa Sing with me, sing for a year

A well put together video. Good job.
Damn!!!
Started this series with the 2018 GOW with no context
This explains his grumpy nature in the game
Absolute Masterpiece
needed this video after the pc release so i can understand the back story.. thanks alot
