Popular YouTube comedian reveals his character in God of War Ragnarok
In his recent Tweet, YouTuber, and voice actor SungWon Cho revealed that he has been working with Santa Monica Studios in the latest God of War Ragnarok to help create an iconic character named ‘Ratatoskr’. He tweeted, “eyyy, looks like the first images of Ratatoskr are finally public (i voiced him, helped write his dialogue, and did the motion capture), looking forward to people finally getting to play God of War: Ragnarok soon.”
Notably, the character has a very distinguished English accent and a mannerism that the popular YouTuber is known for portraying. Also, according to Norse Mythology, Ratatoskr is known for bearing insults to other beings, which can be seen in the latest game as well. If summoned by Atreus, Ratatoskr will suddenly appear in his astral form and give certain insults to him, if the summoning is unnecessary.
