Long before he serves any god, a 13-year-old Kratos is training at the Agoge, Sparta's school for soldiers, alongside his younger brother Deimos. When another cadet goes missing during field training, Deimos talks Kratos into heading out across the wilds of Laconia to find him. A grown Kratos tells the story to his daughter, Calliope. It's a 2D Metroidvania, a big change from the rest of the series.
