It was yesterday when God of War Ragnarök: Valhalla was published through a game update that also requires the download of the DLC. Argumentatively, It is an epilogue that follows Kratos on a tremendously personal and reflective journey..

Set after the decisive battle against Odin and the departure of Atreus, Kratos has discovered that a path opens before him that he could never have imagined. Arriving on the mysterious shore of Valhalla, accompanied only by Mimir, Kratos penetrates the uncharted depths of it to test himself and confront the echoes of his past.

The surprise has been that a senior writer from Santa Monica Studio has announced that The story of God of War Ragnarok has not come to an end after Valhalla. Through a tweet, Orion Walker has confessed: “Do you really think that the credits [de Valhalla] Are they the end of the story? Come on”.
