Does God of War: Ragnarok lighten up
on the series' trademark thrills?

00:00:12.720 --> 00:00:16.020
Nope. It's still an epic and very violent ride.

00:00:16.835 --> 00:00:21.540
This action adventure sequel finds our
heroes Kratos and Atreus once again

00:00:21.540 --> 00:00:24.600
battling their way through 
deadly mythical landscapes.

00:00:26.700 --> 00:00:31.080
True to form, the game is loaded
with blood, gore, and dismemberment.

00:00:32.200 --> 00:00:37.641
Players use axes, knives, and arrows,
as well as fists, feet, and magic,

00:00:37.641 --> 00:00:39.660
to kill gods and monsters alike.

00:00:40.880 --> 00:00:46.080
The cursing is also intense, with frequent
F-bombs and S-words audible in the dialogue.

00:00:46.204 --> 00:00:50.451
If there's a message amid all the combat,
it's that war shouldn't be glorified,

00:00:50.451 --> 00:00:53.435
and that using one's brain 
can help solve problems too.

00:00:53.435 --> 00:00:55.950
"War is not the only way."

00:00:56.328 --> 00:01:01.380
Common Sense says God of War:
Ragnarok is OK for teens 18 and up.
