Even while some of Loki's children from Norse mythology have made appearances in God of War (2018), such as the World Serpent Jormungandr, Sony Santa Monica has done everything it can to distance those characters away from its version of the trickster god. While this doesn't show the sun being consumed, which is one of the major events that takes place in the Ragnarok of Norse mythology, it does hint that Skoll and Hati could take over the role that some may have thought Fenrir would assume. RELATED: God of War Ragnarok Video Features All Gameplay Shown So Far What Role Will Skoll and Hati Play in God of War Ragnarok?įurther on in the story trailer, Atreus shoots an arrow at the sun, letting Skoll chase the sun away and force the day to turn into night. From the recent God of War story trailer, Skoll and Hati appear to no longer be serving Odin, standing at the side of Kratos and Atreus. However, he then set them free in order to chase the sun and moon, resuming the cycle of days and nights. However, Fenrir still existed as an enemy of the Aesir in God of War, and as sons of an enemy of the Norse gods, Odin imprisoned Skoll and Hati when they were pups to prevent them from being involved in Ragnarok. So, instead in God of War (2018), Mimir tells Atreus and Kratos that Skoll and Hati are still sons of the arch-wolf Fenrir, but doesn't describe them as Loki's grandsons. Considering that Atreus AKA Loki in God of War Ragnarok is in his teenage years, it wouldn't exactly make sense for him to be a grandfather.
However, this is where the two stories separate, as in the Norse myths, Skoll and Hati are the sons of Fenrir, and the grandsons of Loki.
In Norse mythology and God of War Ragnarok, Skoll and Hati are two giant wolves, similar to the well-known canine Fenrir. God of War Ragnarok 's issues with the question of Fenrir might be solved with the inclusion of Skoll and Hati.
