God of War Ragnarok Leaked Odin Art Shows a Different Take on the Allfather

The upcoming God of War Ragnarok will be see Kratos further explore (and murder) the Norse god pantheon, and as we’ve already seen, Sony Santa Monica is looking to reimagine some of the classics. The game’s burly Thor is a far cry from the hunky comic-book version most people envision, and it seems Ragnarok’s version of Odin is a bit different too.

Leaker Dusk Golem, primarily known for his largely accurate survival horror leaks, has apparently got his hands on a variety of “miscellaneous God of War Ragnarok things.” This includes a piece of Odin concept art, which you can see below.

As you can see, Ragnarok’s take on Odin looks to be a bit of a departure of the traditional robust, heavily-bearded version of the Allfather. This take looks old and perhaps somewhat weak and depleted. Could this play into the story somehow? I suppose we shall see.
