Before the initial release of God of War Ragnarok, many players had several questions about what was coming next. Fortunately, the game is finally out on Play Station 4 and Play Station 5 to answer all your questions and put your mind at ease. However, it may take some time to complete the story and reveal all the secrets. According to the players, it will take up to 20-25 hours to complete the main story. This is only possible if you grind and do not complete side quests. But if you’re itching to find out what happened to Kratos after watching the cutscene in GOW 2018, then we’ve got you covered. So let’s see if the prophecies are real and if Kratos dies in God Of War (GoW) Ragnarok. There are massive spoilers ahead of you before moving on, so read on only if you really want to.
Will Kratos die in God of War Ragnarok?
To answer your question, Kratos doesn’t die in God of War Ragnarok. So it looks like the prophecies were wrong. However, it might make you think about the cutscene you saw in GoW 2018 where Kratos saw the prophecy painted on the wall in which he is injured and lies in Atreus’ arms. But now you know that he doesn’t die in the end, and according to the developers, this will be the end of the Norse saga in the GoW series. So at the moment we don’t know what the developers have in mind and why he doesn’t die at the end of God of War Ragnarok. All of this clears up one thing: Death can have Kratos…when it earns him.
So, without spoilers, let’s end there. If you want to know more about the game, check out other GoW Ragnarok guides. That’s all you need to know about the question you asked, i.e. does Kratos die in God of War Ragnarok.
