After several long months of waiting, fans of the long popular God of War series have finally been treated to a brand new trailer for the upcoming installment of this franchise. When the title was first revealed, it came as quite a shock to see Kratos looking rather different and accompanied by a young boy. Now, as the Sony conference for E3 draws to a close, game developers have given us a deeper look into the story with their latest trailer, and it seems that Kratos has definitely evolved quite a bit since his previous incarnation. Check out the trailer below:

With the combination of gameplay footage and cinematic feature, this trailer certainly draws in the viewer as we see a very different side of the God of War than we remember. That doesn’t go to say that he is any less badass than he was in previous iterations of the series. Kratos, as it appears, certainly still packs a powerful punch, and his battle axe is nothing to sneeze at this time around. With the addition of training his young son to defend himself against enemies, it does leave us wondering what may be in store for the man that has definitely risen to the top as one of the most badass characters ever. Will this newest title prove to be the end of Kratos? We’ll have to wait until early 2018 (the only hint we have at this title’s release date) to find out!
