Kratos is created by a God of War fan in WWE 2K22.

In the game's elaborate character creation, a WWE 2K22 fan develops Kratos, who is nearly identical to the god-killer.


WWE 2K22 has a lot of players thrilled after breaking the pattern of annual releases. WWE 2K22 seems to be one of the best wrestling games published in recent memory, with stronger sales and ratings than the previous two editions in the franchise, as well as simpler controls and stunning aesthetics.

The vast WWE 2K22 roster is one of the game's biggest advantages over its predecessors; with 168 characters when fully unlocked, the sheer variety of stars to pick from naturally provides the game a lot of replayability. Furthermore, with such a vast roster, fans will have no trouble finding a favourite wrestler.

Despite the fact that the roster is already large, the game allows users to design their own own wrestlers. This has already resulted in the creation of bizarre characters such as Arthur Morgan in WWE 2K22. A player noted for their character building skills recently put them to the test once more, and the outcome was none other than God of War's god killer Kratos.


The character, which was notably Kratos from the most recent game in the franchise, was created by Reddit user HectorBarbossaTheGod. Because of the character's massive beard, this is readily recognisable. Along with his beard, he has red tattoos on his body that are comparable to those on his body in the games, as well as armour and clothing that are similar to those he wears. Unlike some of WWE 2K22's wackier custom wrestlers, such as Joe Biden and Eminem, this Kratos looks great.

Reddit users were blown away by HectorBarbossaTheGod's creation, praising it and cracking jokes about it. One commenter praised HectorBarbossaTheGod for his efforts, saying he couldn't believe how accurate the reproduction was. Another commenter joked that "boy" had better be Kratos' manager, referring to both Atreus and Kratos' moniker. Another user couldn't believe that HectorBarbossaTheGod's character wasn't a God of War asset, claiming that the character's detail is immaculate.

Many fans would probably agree that HectorBarbossaTheGod's depiction of Kratos belongs in the top ten best WWE 2K22 video game characters, as his work on the character is incredible. This is only the latest in a long line of characters created by the Reddit user, and with new characters being created on a daily basis, only time will tell what the community will add to the game next.
