God of War Ragnarok will let Kratos eq🌞uip different shi🃏elds with varying abilities. 

Speaking to in a recent interview, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:God of War Ragnarok director Eric Williams revealed that there'll be a fair few shields for Kratos to find and unlock in the sequel. "I don’t want🎶 to go too deep on it, but yes, there are different shields, and they have different defensive options and abilities," said Williams.

"The reason we’re doing this is we really want to open up expressive choice to the way that you build your Kratos, like the equipment and loadout and things like that," the director continued. Whereas Kratos o🌊nly had the one shield to utilize in the God of War reboot in 201🌞8, Ragnarok will offer a lot more variety in the shield department.

God of War Ragnarok was finally unveiled in full earlier this month, at the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:PlayStation showcase. In the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:first proper trailer for the sequel, we saw Kratos and Atreus butting heads once again, with Freya returning as a fully-fledged antagonist, and a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:tease of the prolific Thor, whose character design was properly revealed after the showcase itself thr🌼ough concept ꦉart.

Ragnarok will also spell the 澳洲幸运5💮开奖号码历史查询:end of the Norse saga for Kratos and A♒treus. Former God of War director Cory Barlog revealed that Sony Santa Monica is wrapp𓆏ing up the overarching story of the current saga simply because development takes too long. Barlog stated that if every God of War game took five years to make (which is looking likely for Ragnarok), then a trilogy wouldn't be completed for 15 yearꦓs. That, Barlog thinks, is a bit too long.
