God of War Ragnarök: Valhalla - A Free DLC That Exceeds Expectations
The latest free DLC, Valhalla, for God of War Ragnarök is a fantastic addition. It has managed to refine the robust yet, at times, overfilled narrative of the original Ragnarök, and has warmed me up to the sequel in a way I didn't expect.
The setting of Valhalla, post-Ragnarök, sees Kratos journeying through a hall of heroes. The combat arenas he encounters, built from his memories, offer a unique way to reflect on his past.

Unpacking Kratos' Past
Valhalla delves deep into Kratos' past, forcing him to confront his past actions. The story focuses on Kratos' past, a sharp contrast to the ensemble cast of Ragnarök, providing a fresh perspective on the series.
Valhalla's narrative strength lies in its narrow focus, reminding us of the talented writing team at Santa Monica Studio.
Combat in Valhalla
Valhalla showcases the best aspects of Ragnarök's combat. The combat arenas in Valhalla highlight Kratos' diverse arsenal and the challenges they pose.
Through a narrative device, Kratos is stripped down to his core abilities, allowing you to add upgrades and powerful attacks as you progress through Valhalla.
No Two Battles Are The Same
With a variety of tools at Kratos' disposal and the random rewards and upgrades in Valhalla, every battle feels unique. This keeps combat fresh and encourages experimentation.
