Thanks to a member of the press who was accidentally sharing screenshots of God of War Ragnarök from their PS5 to their public Twitter, we now know some massive spoilers. We're going to share them here so, please turn around now if you care about spoilers.
God of War Ragnarök is just a few short weeks from release, and a great many fans are hyped. The previous game was widely beloved, and there's no reason to believe the studio can't repeat the same success. But if you're one of those hyped fans, and you love the story of God of War then please leave this page now. Go and read about some of the recently-confirmed GTA 6 gameplay features instead, or try and win some free PC games with Lootboy.
This whole article is about God of War Ragnarök plot spoilers, and you can consider this your last warning. But if you don't care about spoilers, or you're only playing God of War for the axe-throwing, then let's proceed.
Journalist Reveals God of War Plot Spoilers To The World
One of the journalists who was given a review copy of God of War ahead of release was accidentally sharing screenshots of the game to their public Twitter over the weekend of October 21. If you haven't played much on a PS5 then you might not be aware of how the sharing function works, but it's not easy to see how someone could make this mistake. Still, we all have our "off days".
We don't want to humiliate the person who accidentally did this, so we won't be sharing their Twitter handle. Luckily, the screenshots were collected by another account (@ArtGowSaga), and so we'll share that repost instead:

- Thor kills Kratos.
- Atreus and Tyr will appeal to gods and try to bring Kratos back.
- Atreus becomes Loki.
