'God of War' PS4 News: Devs Detail the Importance of Runes in the Upcoming Game

Many of the runes in the upcoming 'God of War' PS4 game are significant in some way

In the past, the "God of War" franchise allowed players to step into the shoes of the perpetually furious Kratos as he unleashed his rage upon enemies and settings inspired by Greek mythology. But now that this familiar face is moving to a new location, he will need some help getting adjusted to his foreign surroundings.

As fans may already know, the upcoming installment of the series due out for the PlayStation 4 will feature a world based on Norse mythology. It is a world that will likely be foreign to them, and it is also mostly unknown to Kratos himself.

That is why developers are introducing elements in the form of runes that can help Kratos get acclimated to his new surroundings.
