Kratos and Atreus are back in the latest and greatest instalment of the beloved “Dad-sim”, God of War: Ragnarok.
With its release date slated for 9 November, the final instalment of God of War’s Norse saga will revolve around Kratos’ son, Atreus, who seeks to learn more about his role in the looming battle of Ragnarok. If you’ve been following along with the games or have an inkling about Norse mythology, you’ll know that Ragnarok (and Atreus’ real name) spells out a sequence of disastrous events that will lead to the end of the world.
As Kratos, you’ll need to step up to be the father Atreus deserves, all while battling Nordic gods and monsters in fluid, cutthroat combat. Your trusty Leviathan Axe will make a mighty comeback alongside the Blade of Chaos and Guardian Shield, now imbued with more abilities than before.
While we don’t know much else about the sequel right now, its apocalyptic plotline is more than enough incentive for God of War fans to lock in their pre-orders.

Unfortunately, if you were hoping to find a lead on where to nab the elusive Collector’s or Jotnar Edition of God of War, you won’t find one here or anywhere else in Australia. While you can look to online marketplaces such as eBay, you’ll find that many of the prices have been scaled up by resellers.
It’s a real shame, considering that both editions had such cool merch, including a 16-inch replica of Mjölner, a Dwarven dice set and a Knowledge Keeper’s Shrine. It was honestly one of the best special edition goodie boxes we’ve seen in a long time, so it sucks that there’s been such a limited supply.
But if we do spot any on sale, we’ll be sure to update this piece to let you all know. Fingers crossed.
