Sony Computer Entertainment and their Santa Monica studio have recently unveiled the first single-player trailer of the year for their upcoming release of God of War: Ascension.
Vengeance is born in the fires of betrayal in this prequel to the best-selling God of War franchise. Six months have passed since Kratos stood over the bodies of his wife and child, his hands stained with their blood – tricked by Ares into murdering the only people he ever loved. Swearing to avenge them, Kratos broke the blood oath that bound him to Ares, but oaths to Olympus are not so easily broken…
Sentenced to an eternity chained within a prison for the living damned, Kratos battles insanity at the hands of the Furies. He will be tested as he seeks freedom, redemption for his sins, and the clarity to avenge his family.
Before He Was A God, He Was A Man.
Set as a prequel to the critically acclaimed series, God of War: Ascension reveals where the epic journey begins and acts as the perfect entry point for new players who are thinking about joining the battle. Those who have already taken part in the multiplayer beta have fought to become champions of the arena – now comes the chance to really understand what drove Kratos to become the God of War.
Expect to hear more on this game in the coming weeks, before it launches exclusively for the Playstation 3 on the 14th March 2013!
