'God of War: Ragnarök' Story Trailer Unveils in State of Play
The PlayStation Blog detailed what was unveiled in the earlier showcase event of the company, centering on State of Play's release of the story trailer for "God of War: Ragnarök."
The story trailer drop provides the world with a new perspective on the upcoming title releasing for the world, centering on the franchise's successor which continues Kratos and Atreus' involvement in the Norse myth.
The pair are met with great foes from the Nordic beliefs, with the All-Father's oversight on what is happening on Midgard. It also shows the return of old weapons like the Blades of Chaos from the original trilogy, as well as the Leviathan Axe.
Atreus now leads their quest to know their destiny, with Kratos following in his son's footsteps.
'God of War: Ragnarök' PS5 DualSense Controller Arrives
Alongside this story trailer drop, PlayStation also unveiled a new accessory to complement the game's future experience, releasing a limited-edition "God of War: Ragnarök" PS5 DualSense controller. Its colors are different, as instead of the white and black design from standard gamepads, the new themed controller will debut a two-toned icy white and cool blue color representing Midgard.

'God of War: Ragnarök' and its Franchise
The world awaits the continuation of the story of the famous Greek demigod which toppled Olympus, now shifting its focus to Norse mythology, picking up from the story of the 2018 game "God of War." The game is one of the most famous titles in the franchise with its unique take on Kratos, now seeing a PC port on Steam for its new platform experience.
A previous leak regarding the arrival of "God of War: Ragnarök" placed its availability to the public by late 2022, and it is now confirmed that the game is releasing this November for all gamers. It will be an exclusive release of the company for PlayStation consoles only, with no information on its PC availability like its predecessor.
Sony Sta. Monica and PlayStation are in for a rowdy November with "Ragnarök's" slated release for the public.
Many trailers for the game already centered on what to expect from it, with another one called "Father and Son" giving more information on the next title. However, this new story trailer aims to explain more of what is coming for the game, with Norse mythology's end of worlds, a.k.a. Ragnarök, coming to the game franchise.
