God of War
The Kratos cosplay made by merisiel_irum manages to be both faithful and completely different from the brutal protagonist of God of War. The model, in fact, does not have the strength and physical might of the Phantom of Sparta, but thanks to the make-up and costume she manages to interpret it worthily, even if with an extra touch of grace and beauty.Di Kratos there is little to say. The Spartan was first the violent and charismatic protagonist of a series of hack'n slash for PlayStation, but over the years he has transformed into a more multifaceted and tormented character, able to conquer players even more than in his youthful version. . This is mainly due to that masterpiece that responds to the name of God of War.
It is this version that merisiel_irum stages with her cosplay. The model has faithfully replicated Kratos' breastplate, as well as the gloves and belt. To complete the cosplay there is the red makeup, which incorporates the tattoos of the Ghost of Sparta, and a pearly complexion. The result is a rather successful female version of Kratos, much more pleasing to the eye, even if not as powerful.
The specifiers will notice the lack of the beard (replaced by a thick head of hair) and the large scar on the belly, but it is impossible not to notice the similarities with the original model.
Another interesting Kratos cosplay is that of zhafirova_nina. While the cosplay of Trish by Haori_Senpai is quite different, but it is equally valid.

God of War: Kratos Is Given a Womanly Touch in Amazing Cosplay
March 4, 2021 6:34 AM EST
God of War: Ragnarok is the words on the lips of fans as we progress through 2021. Although the sequel has yet to be given an official title, we still haven’t heard anything regarding its release date, only that it would be coming this year. As time moves on and Santa Monica Studios remain tight-lipped, it seems increasingly likely that the much-anticipated title might now come next year. Director Cory Barlog recently seemed to refer to the title in a tweet and said we’d hear about it “when it’s done”. This doesn’t give eager fans much hope right now but what could cheer them up is some Kratos cosplay with a feminine twist.
Ash, a Twitch streamer, esports host and professional geologist, has stepped away from the microphone and slipped into something we can all recognize. Portraying her take on the mighty Kratos from God of War, Ash dons Kratos’ red face paint that symbolizes his brother Deimos who was captured by Ares and Athena so, in honor of him, Kratos took on Deimos’ birthmarks. Ash also holds up a replica of Krato’s Leviathan ax, a weapon forged by the Huldra Brothers, Sindri and Brok, who also forged Thor’s hammer.
We can also see that Ash is wearing Krato’s fur-lined, leather chest piece embroidered with cross stitching and what looks to be some patterns etched into the leather. It’s a really great cosplay of the burly god and a game that Ash said she really enjoyed when it was first released. It’s also brilliant to see a woman’s touch on how Kratos looks as we’re so used to seeing the bulging muscles of the incredible demi-god. Check out some of Ash’s other cosplays that include Yennefer from The Witcher and Lara Croft from Tomb Raider.
As of now, the God of War sequel is still slated to happen this year, apparently, but we wouldn’t get our hopes up. If you have no idea what all the fuss is about, God of War is available exclusively on PS4 and you can pick up a physical copy from Amazon right now.
