Both of these abilities are provided by the game’s namesake, the Greek god Zeus. At some stages in the game, he can generate an arc of electricity with the help of Zeus or use the severed head of a Gorgon to turn adversaries into stone with Meduza’s Gaze. In due time, Kratos will also get access to various spells that the gods cast. You can either place the orbs into different weapons you’ve earned during the game, such as the Blade of Artemis or upgrade the weapons already in your inventory to learn new skills and strike more quickly. In a manner very similar to Devil May Cry, the red orbs obtained from defeated foes can be spent on purchasing various types of upgrades. Kratos will collect more red orbs from vanquished foes in proportion to the total number of combos he has completed. They grant the player the ability to perform combos, which will continue to increase until the battle is over or until it takes too long to register another hit. Kratos is equipped with two swords, the Blades of Chaos, and will always take them wherever he goes. God of War is a third-person action game featuring platforming and puzzle-solving aspects. Last but not least, the goddess Athene reveals to Kratos that he will be redeemed if he successfully vanquishes her brother, the god of war, Ares, who was the direct cause of the terrible catastrophe that occurred in his past… As a condition for receiving forgiveness for his transgressions, the gods of Olympus have mandated that he perform his duties as their champion. In modern times, people call him “the Ghost of Sparta.” Because he cannot let go of the terrible event that took place in his past, he has been plagued with terrifying nightmares for the past ten years. He was a courageous and terrible general who fought in battles for the honor of his city. Kratos used to be the leader of the Spartans a very long time ago. Kratos, a human warrior, plays the role of the game’s protagonist. The events of God of War take place at the time of ancient Greek mythology.
