God of War Ragnarok tells the grand tale of Kratos and Atreus on their journey to prevent Ragnarok, as the duo learn to trust and rely upon each other. The narrative is beautifully woven by the central questline, The Path, across the Nine Realms.
When God of War was released back in 2018, it was groundbreaking as it completely changed the PlayStation's flagship hack-and-slash franchise to a more action-adventure experience-featuring narrative with character depth never seen in the series before. As such, the pressure on Ragnarok was high to not only live up to the expectations, but to deliver a follow-up worthy of its predecessor.
With Ragnarok getting an amazing 9.5/10 from Sportskeeda Gaming's own Jason Parker, suffice to say that it has not only lived up to those expectations, but overcame them as well.
While the game does include a short recap of previous events, it is recommended to jump into Ragnarok's Path with Kratos and Atreus after playing through the previous title. Speaking of The Path, all of the main quests and side quests in God of War Ragnarok are provided below.
All main quests in God of War Ragnarok (The Path)
