Kratos Avoids Fighting A Soul-Eater In New God Of War Trailer

The early 2018 release of God of War isn't too far away, and the latest trailer gives us another glimpse at the combat, as well as the beasts Kratos fights – or in some cases, doesn't fight.

At the beginning of the video below, you can see Kratos and his son avoid an encounter with a nasty-looking brute called a soul-eater. Of course, they can't dodge fights forever, and Kratos is soon bashing skeletal warriors with his ice axe and using objects in the environment (like a hanging lantern) to clear the way. 

The rebooted God of War is coming exclusively to PlayStation 4.
