Kratos has spent five games defeating the Greek gods and now he’s back for even more blood fueled vengeance in the sixth title in the series, God of War: Ascension. Confirmed by Sony last night, and leaked online by retailers earlier in the day, Ascension will see Kratos return to the PlayStation 3 after his 2010 outing on the Playstation Portable.

Confirmation of the game’s existence isn’t the only blood soaked treat we’ve got to enjoy. A teaser trailer for the game leaked online last night as well. Ascension serves a prequel to the previous three console games. Will Ascension possibly showing a much calmer Kratos? I highly doubt that! Kratos will probably solve his disputes with grotesque violence rather than words.
