God Of War Laufey fan has discovered some interesting environmental details related to the lore.

God of War Laufey appears to have removed the interactive markers that were present throughout the Norse games, and this actually makes a lot of sense within the series' canon.

Even though it hasn't been that long since the last big God of War game, last week's surprise reveal of God of War Laufey, a new game focusing on Kratos' wife Faye from the afterlife of the gods, was still a huge moment for fans. The reveal trailer gave us just enough footage to get us excited, while also leaving plenty of mystery for fans to guess.

Since the reveal of God of War Laufey, fans have been poring over the lengthy reveal trailer and trying to find out as much as they can about the game, from Faye's mysterious new weapon to the divisive identities of Phranque and Rue. While we wait for answers to these mysteries, one eagle-eyed fan has discovered some very interesting details about the environments associated with the Norse games.

God Of War Laufey appears to have removed the environmental markers and fits the lore.

Fay leaves few hints.

On the God of War subreddit, Reddit user JaxTheNukaEXE pointed out that God of War Laufey's gameplay footage is completely missing the interactive markers that were scattered throughout the Norse game's environments. The equivalent of God of War's yellow paint isn't seen at the start of Laufey, leaving Faye to figure out where to climb on her own.

This could be said to be a response to criticism that the game focused too much on leading players, but JaxTheNukaEXE pointed out that this actually makes a lot of sense within the canons of God of War. In Norse games, interactive markers are known to have been left behind by the Fae (and possibly other giants) to help guide Kratos and Atreus through their journeys.

If you're worried about accessibility, I'm sure Laufey will have his own version of interactive markers that we haven't seen during the reveal.

Considering this is Faye's first time at Everywen and she's usually the one who leaves these hints to help others, it makes a lot of sense to suddenly see her out of nowhere in Laufey. Of course, on a gameplay level it's explained by Faye being able to jump whenever she wants, but it's nice that it also ties into God of War canon.
