Sony Santa Monica Studio has revealed that God of War Ragnarok Valhalla will act as the epilogue to the base game, so it does have some value narrative-wise.
Speaking on Twitter in response to a fan asking if the DLC would simply add more challenges and not story, the developer responded:
There is story! GoWR:V serves as an epilogue to the events of God of War Ragnarök.
Here’s the skinny on the DLC:
Set after the decisive battle against Odin and Atreus’ departure, Kratos has seen a path for himself that he never thought possible before. Brought to the mysterious shores of Valhalla accompanied only by Mimir, Kratos will enter its unknown depths to overcome trials within himself and face echoes of his past.
As previously reported, the God of War Ragnarok Valhalla download size will clock in at just under 8GB, so it won’t put much of a strain on your console storage.
