Gaia informed that the only way to defeat Zeus is to use the power of the Sisters of Fate, the three Primordial beings including Lahkesis, Atropos, and Clotho who have the power to transform the fate of every god, beast, or Titan. He learned from Athena that Zeus is his own father, Kratos rejected this notion and vowed to kill Zeus and further destroy all of Olympus. Loosely based on Greek mythology, the game is set in ancient Greece. Odin allows Thor to assault Kratos as retribution for killing Baldur, Magni, and Modi and Kratos is knocked far away from his house by Thor using his hammer. In Greek myth, Perseus was the famous hero who killed the Gorgon, Medusa. He was raised and trained alongside him by his mother Callisto in hopes of one day becoming a Spartan soldier. As a result, Kratos is understandably angered by the revelation that Atreus has been sneaking out without his permission, even though, as the latter points out, he had been hypocritically keeping secrets from him for most of his life. He slaughtered everybody inside in a fit of blind rage, including his wife and child (whom he believed were still in Sparta). As a side note, Kratos is only ever seen with a happy, or smiling facial expression three times in the original Greek-era games. Modi tries to attack, but is too injured to do so, Atreus looks back at his father, in which he answers that Modi isn't worth killing due to his battered state. When Kratos captured them, he slammed their heads into their respective altars to coerce them despite them being painfully aware they'd would become the necessary human sacrifices.

Aphrodite aided Kratos during his quest to kill Ares by giving him Medusa's head. The Stranger, shockingly, is very strong enough to uppercut Kratos high over his own house, and also matching his strength, this reveals that the Stranger is the god. With Megaera killed, Kratos gains back the Amulet of Uroborus that was previously taken from him. He smashes it before Atreus can see it, so his past is not revealed to him. Kratos stands atop a cliff, looks out at the horizon and realizes what he has done. But as usual, Kratos doesn't care and leaves him towards the Hyperion gate which will direct him on the Underworld exit. While fighting behind the house, Kratos was thrown by the Stranger, while grabbing him, started landing on Kratos' house, where the two gods both started fighting to other on the rooftop.The Stranger punched through Kratos' rooftop, realizing there were two beds, hinting him that Kratos is not alone in his house, and asked Kratos who he was hiding.

The destroyer of worlds. It was quite slow, but also did more damage to enemies than the Blades of Chaos. Kratos let her go and attack Zeus in a fit of his rage. The only other person to best Kratos in direct combat was Zeus, though this was because Kratos lost almost all of his godly powers and was nearly crushed flat by the hand of the Colossus of Rhodes, so Zeus got an easy strike against him. Ever since Gaia and the other Titans were banished to Tartarus by Zeus, she wanted revenge on her grandson. The Furies then creates an illusion in the form of a large whirlpool and Alecto changes form become a giant sea monster.

Every time she met Kratos, she was insulting and hostile towards him while Kratos himself was surprisingly calm. When Kratos was in the underworld to save Helios, he saw Calliope and wished to be with her, even planning to leave the world at the mercy of Morpheus. Atreus wanted to proved himself by listening to whatever his father commands. Kratos exerting all his strength, he manages to destroy the stone structure that protects the colossal heart of water and frees Gaia from the snares of Poseidon's sea forces, giving Gaia the chance to throw a devastating punch at the colossal of water, sending Kratos flying pierced through the water. On their way back to Midgard, Kratos asks Mimir of Baldur's vulnerability, Mimir says that there's none at all, as he's invulnerable to threats: physical or magical. She saw Kratos as the warrior she needed to enact her revenge and kept a close eye on him. He is so enraged and filled with pure hatred for Zeus to the point that he is physically unable to feel calm during his quest for revenge. Later on, Kratos encountered Artemis' champion, Pothia, and killed her as well, with her army also falling victim to the Spartans, although Artemis did not retaliate. For example, he tried to dump them in the ocean but the sea itself rejected them and destroyed his boat.

Thereafter, he, along with Freya and also Mmir, begins rebuilding the realms and they restore peace. This is shown during his travels in Helheim as the realm would torture him by making him relieve the moment he killed Zeus. However, these actions would come back to haunt Zeus as Kratos was able to return to life with the aid of Gaia, and after defeating the Sisters of Fate, he went back in time to have his revenge on Zeus. Atreus realizes that the giants prophesied their journey. He was Kratos' second child after Calliope. An example of this is Hades use of telekinesis when Kratos fights him. Ares justified this as a means of severing Kratos' remaining attachments to the world of mortals, thereby molding him into the perfect warrior. At one point, when Mimir asks Atreus to take a knife originating from his homeland, Kratos responded by saying "Yes, boy take it.

The (at this point in the game, former) God of War refuses, because, lets face it, Kratos has other things on his mind. Freya ensures Kratos that the boy is not his past, but his son and that he needs his father and she gives him the travel rune to Helheim. He now bids a heartfelt farewell while Kratos learns that he is destined to become a revered god.

And for that, Zeus, the King of Olympus, offers help in the form of the Blade of Olympus, the blade he used to end The Great War. Mimir explains that they need his other eye to get to the realm. By doing so, Thera is now free from the chains that bind him. As they are heading back to Midgard, Mimir warns them that Fimbulwinter-the great winter that precedes Ragnark is upon them as it was not supposed to happen for a couple of hundred years and that Kratos may have accelerated the events. The two of them were involved in a great fight, which after Kratos managed to tear both wings Erinys, her wings grew back and she transformed into a giant armored bird monster, forcing Kratos to use the power of Thera's Bane, stab into the armor, and kill him.
