Reddit user SoCalledSidekick uploaded a video on the social media platform that proves Kratos will go to any lengths to protect his son. The video is a compilation of incidents where Kratos puts himself in danger and tries to shield Atreus at any cost. The first instance shows the duo facing a giant beast inGod of War Ragnarokwhen Kratos pushes Atreus to move him away from danger. This is followed by a section that shows Kratos and Atreus falling from a significant height, and the former puts his arms around the latter to face the brunt of the impact.
As seen in the video, Kratos positions his body so that he lands first, so the fall’s impact is minimal for Atreus. Kratos is a demigod, making him resistant to fall damage to some extent, whereas Atreus could be severely harmed in the same situation.

Kratos’s dedication to safeguarding Atreus shows how deep their relationship has become since the lastGod of Wargame.
