We know the new character is the son of our protagonist, but what is his importance? This could be connected to the new beginning that “Kratos” was referring to at the end of the trailer; meaning that it is less of a sequel and more of a new story with a new setting altogether.

Kratos is in the game and he’s joined by his son. The gameplay footage shows an aged Kratos mentoring a young man as they hunt a sizable deer.
As for the gameplay, the video showed some role-playing game (RPG) and hunting elements which indicate that Sony Santa Monica might be mixing things up for this one.

We also see skill specific experience being gained, and what looks like a very compelling story in “God Of War”.
