As the follow-up to the brilliant God of War (2018), God of War Ragnarök is set to become one of the biggest holiday releases when it launches on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 on November 9. And to prime you for release Sony has created an animated story recap called “Myths of Midgard” covering all of the big beats from the first game.

It's a very cool narrated storybook, with Felicia Day and Mimir retelling the journey of Kratos and Atreus so far.

God of War fans were introduced to a new side of Kratos when God of War launched on PS4 in 2018. If you haven’t yet experienced the tale of father and son traveling the realms of Norse myth yourself, or if it’s been a while, we’re ready to catch you up to speed.

To prepare for the upcoming release of God of War Ragnarök on November 9, we’ve invited two of the best storytellers we know to recap the journey of Kratos and Atreus from God of War (2018): the amazing Felicia Day and the Smartest Man Alive, Mimir!

The new Myths of Midgard video is an animated storybook recounting the events of God of War (2018), with a goal of catching you up on the previous game.
