Thor made an interesting game even bigger.

Why Thor's physique works in God Of War Ragnarok

God of War is one of the most iconic franchises under the PlayStation Studios banner, and the developers know how to differentiate these popular gods from other popular adaptations. The gaming community anticipated the epic showdown between Kratos and Thor, and the developers did not disappoint.

Introducing a famous figure like the God of Thunder could have been a daunting task, but luckily Santa Monica Studio figured out how to make their version of Thor stand out from more famous adaptations like the live-action counterpart in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Santa Monica Studio knew comparisons would be made between the two versions of Thor and has benefited greatly from the success of the Avengers films, which established a strong following for Norse mythology. The Asgardian Gods in the Marvel Cinematic Universe were shown as protective and righteous beings, while in the video game series they are quite the opposite.
