Another year of E3 has come and gone, leaving us with loads of excitement for the new games that will be released in the next twelve months.

In case you aren’t familiar, E3, short for the Electronic Entertainment Expo, is a huge gaming event where game publishers and manufacturers advertise and introduce new products. This year, one of my favorite games announced a new release for 2018. That game is God of War 4.

For those you unfamiliar with the God of War franchise, the game is a third-person action-adventure game loosely based on Greek mythology. You play as a warrior named Kratos who serves the Olympian gods after being plagued by nightmares from the day he murdered his family. 

Growing tired of being a servant to the gods, Kratos is propositioned by Athena to kill the actual god of war, Ares, in order to be forgiven for killing his family.

Though tedious and challenging, God of War remains one of my favorite game series to date because of its ability to balance both story and gameplay in perfect harmony.

So, enough about the game (because I could go on about the series for hours) — let’s get on with the video game fashion. Here are some outfits inspired by God of War.

Kratos

“By the gods, what have I become?”

Kratos (see his angry eyes, above) is our protagonist. He’s not your typical video game hero in that, well, he’s not too likable. His backstory is tragic, but it’s hard to feel sympathy for him when he continuously makes mistakes out of anger and frustration.

However, Kratos’ shortcomings are part of what makes the game so great: After all, in Greek mythology everyone is flawed to some extent.
