After living for thousands of years on earth, Kratos has seen it all, the rise and fall of the Greek Gods and Norse Gods too. After his battle with the witch Freya, he was cursed with immortality just moments before her death and the former god of war found himself roaming around earth until finding a good secluded spot somewhere in Japan. Immortality allowed him to outlive Atreus, his Son, Kratos grieved after the ceremony and scattered the boys ashes up in the highest mountains so that the boy is reunited with his Mother. Now he resides alone in a wooden cottage, hunting and surviving as always. That was until he is discovered.
