Laufey, also known as Faye — Kratos's wife and Atreus's mother, played by Deborah Ann Woll. It is the first mainline God of War without Kratos as protagonist.
$69.99 for the Standard Edition and $79.99 for the Digital Deluxe. Pre-ordering either grants the Last Wish Armor Set, Phranque Golden Leaves and a resource pack.
Not announced. Both previous Norse-saga games reached PC eventually (after ~3.7 and ~1.8 years), which suggests a port may come — nothing is confirmed. Full analysis on the platforms page.
