It was during last year’s E3 when Sony pulled the curtain back on the new God of War game, which is set to be a big departure when compared to the games of the series’ past. That point was made all the more clear during the game’s showing during E3 this year, which was done through a fantastic new trailer for the game.
The trailer is called Be A Warrior, and features Kratos and his son on their perilous adventures. Kratos is doing his best to protect his son, but at the same time he is training him to become a warrior. You immediately sense that this is going to be a much more story-driven and emotional adventure than any of the previous games, which were largely focused on all-out hack and slash action with the story being secondary.
The game has also seen a big shake up in the gameplay department, as this is definitely not a hack and slash game anymore. Players will have a full 360 camera at this disposal, and the combat has been slowed down a little and seems to feature a variety of different special moves to pull off. Mix in the game’s gorgeous visuals and the new God of War has once again left fans thirsty for more.
While many were hoping that the new God of War would release at some point later this year, the new trailer unfortunately confirmed that that won’t be happening. It instead will be getting an early 2018 release exclusively on PlayStation 4, and if it follows most of the games in the series’ past then it could end up releasing in March. That’s pure speculation at this point, but definitely not out of the realm of possibility. In the meantime, be sure to check out the fantastic new trailer for the game below.
