There are a ton of cool features and Easter eggs hidden in the mystic world of God of War. The Game has not one but two separate endings. In this article, I will show you a step by step guide on how to unlock the second ending or the secret ending. The secret ending is more than an Easter egg, it is significant to the storyline. Tread carefully because; SPOILERS
What to Do to Unlock the Secret Ending?
The God of War regular ending is with you scattering Fey’s ashes. Then you will go home and sleep. The secret scene is unlocked by you doing something different. The game will still carry on if you don’t scatter the ashes. But if instead, you send the ashes to Kratos and Atreus. For you, the story will end there, but the audience will get a cutscene.
What is in the Cutscene?
The cutscene starts with, both Kratos and Atreus sleeping and outside the thunder rages on. This storm is waylaying the whole countryside. Lightening rages on from the heaven. A bolt of lightning sends a shockwave through the house waking Kratos and Atreus. It is as if the very gods came down to earth and shook the very foundations of the earth. Suddenly there is a knock on the door or some strange lightning bolt in the distance. Kratos is the one to get up and open the door and there in the darkness is a cloaked figure. His face is shrouded in mystery, and the cloak does not give the identity of who is behind it. Kratos shouts out “ who are you?. The mystery figures turn to look at him, and as he turns his Cloak betrays him. The cloak flutters a little to reveal Thor’s magic hammer.
Thor in Secret Ending:
The scene implies that Thor has come back to the world. The reasons for his arrival are unclear, but perhaps he has come to seek revenge on those who took from him what he desired most. Perhaps he seeks to destroy the ones who murdered his sons; Magni, and Modi. But perhaps a more fitting explanation would be one that explains why Thor came to the house of Kratos and Atreus. Thor has come forth to warn the two comrades of the awaiting Ragnarok, the approaching doom of Asgard.
God of war is an excellent game, and the novelty of solving another ending is fun. The second ending delivers a twist that is sure to keep people talking about the game. The ending was brilliantly crafted, but the question on everyone’s mind is that where does the studio go from here? Is this a bait for the sequel, or perhaps it is the hint of a momentous gaming storyline or is it just another cheap thrill to keep us interested. Whatever the answer is to the question; I can’t wait for the next instalment; to see where they go from here.
