God of War Ragnarok met all the requirements of fans like its predecessors. As everyone expects these games to be filled with mythological stuff, Ragnarok also featured some exceptional moments and characters from Norse mythology. Fans might have understood most of the references, but there were some that they might have missed.

It is no secret to anyone now that Kratos’s son Atreus is none other than the Loki of Norse Mythology, who audiences are familiar with as the God of Mischief. The game features many famous references related to the trickster God in the video game. Like we get to meet Loki’s wife Angrboda in this game, although she was more of a friend and a potential love interest for him here. But did we meet all of Loki’s children?

God of War Ragnarok referenced all of Loki’s children

Both the latest God of War games referenced all children of Loki from Norse Mythology. We got to meet the giant wolf Fenrir and the world serpent Jormungandr in the game. But unlike mythology, Loki and Angrboda didn’t literally give birth to them. After all, they were still kids in the game. But they still created them by planting Giant souls in a large soulless snake and the Hel wolf Garm.

However, fans might not know but the game also referenced the other children of Loki in the game. According to Norse Myth, the God of mischief also gave birth to Odin’s eight-legged horse called Sleipnir. While going to Norms, Kratos and Freya ride a mysterious horse called Kelpie, who is actually from Celtic Mythology.

This horse might not be the exact child of Loki, but a reference. When Kratos visit the Kelpie before the final mission, Mimir questioned him why he came here. So, the Greek God of War replies he hoped Atreus might have liked the horse. It might be a reference to what happened between a horse and Loki shape-shifted a mare, which eventually led to the birth of Sleipnir.

The game might have also referenced Loki and Angrboda’s son Hel from myth, who would also become the ruler of Helheim. In the game, Mimir and Kratos promised the current ruler of Helheim to find someone to replace her in the future. Moreover, the game revealed that the ruler of Helheim is called Hel. So it’s possible Atreus and Angrboda will have a son, who will become “Hel”.
