Kratos has become one of the most important figures for the PlayStation. The character was transformed and improved many times, but as a result they decided to stay on the "Greek" and "brutal" design.
God of War: Ascension tells how the still young Kratos, deceived, killed his wife and child and was sentenced to life in prison. Only the Furies kept him company in the titanic prison. Kratos was constantly looking for a way to throw off the shackles and gain clarity of mind for revenge on Ares.
