Time has passed between the first God of War reboot game and the sequel Ragnarok, with Atreus aging up a bit dealing with the problems of a teenager - but how old is he this time around?
What is Atreus' age?
Doing a bit of math, we can estimate that Atreus is approximately 14 years old.
In the first Norse era God of War title of 2018, Atreus is merely 11 years old, according to the official novel adaptation (via GameRant).
He learned how to use his bow more proficiently, and Kratos eventually grew more respect for his son during their first journey. With that in mind, we do know that Ragnarok takes place around three years after the events of his debut game.
The age would make sense as well if you consider Atreus' actor Sunny Suljic. Christopher Judge (Kratos) and Suljic likely performed their roles around the middle of development, so Suljic was likely 14 to 16 years old during the process. He turned 17 in August 2022, according to his IMDB page.
