Justin Amirkhani: "Kratos has been through a lot over the last 3 God of War titles (and subsequent portable spin-offs), but the character has always remained a one-note beast of rage. Little of his motivations have been explained and while were all aware just how he became the Ghost of Sparta, none of the games have ever explored his blood oath to Ares in a way that provided any depth to his character. God of War: Ascension looks to change that with the single-player campaign focussed around the evolution of Kratos before he became a god. Unfortunately, little more has been revealed about the campaign and Sony Santa Monica is keeping tight lipped on exactly how the events of the prequel are going to unfold."
