God of War Sons of Sparta revealed, launches today

Publisher Santa Monica Studio is teaming up with game developer Mega Cat Studios to make an all-new 2D action-platforming game set in the God of War franchise. God of War Sons of Sparta delivers a canonical story starring Kratos and his brother Deimos, as the two train to become Spartan warriors amid harsh training in the Agoge, a Spartan training program. 

Voice actor TC Carson, who originally played the role of Kratos in the God of War prequel trilogy and spin-offs before Christopher Judge took over in Norse-era duology, will return to narrate the new game. The game will feature pixel animation and new monsters from Greek mythology, with 2D action-packed gameplay. 

Kratos will be able to fight with his spear and shield, along with divine artifacts called the Gifts of Olympus, to take down his foes.
