Initiated in 2005, the series has had chapters on PlayStation 2, mobile phone, PlayStation Portable, and PlayStation 3. The character Kratos has been associated with various types of products including art, clothing, comics, romance, toys and mobile phone covers.
The central character of the series is Kratos, a Spartan warrior eventually revealed to be a demigod.
The success of the first game, God of War, allowed the development of five other games with each chapter to be part of a saga with vengeance as a central theme. Each new game brings new information about the origins of Kratos, and their family relationships with the gods. A complicated series of attempts to break free of the influence of the gods (and eventually the Titans) and its consequent vengeance, with the series becoming increasingly darker in tone in each new game.
