Ricardo Carriço: "How does a game have such a high level of violence and the character ends up being beloved"

SIC Notícias1 September 2026 at 19:55

Cristiana Reis led a conversation about Kratos's legacy on the Geração Gamer program, joined by Miguel Patinha Dias, a technology and video game journalist, and Ricardo Carriço, the actor who voices Kratos in the Portuguese version. The episode served as the season finale of the program's first season, exploring the past, present, and future of the franchise.

During the conversation, Ricardo Carriço questioned the level of violence in the game's series, asking how a game with such extreme violence ends up having a character so beloved by the public. This paradox between the game's brutality and the players' emotional connection with Kratos was one of the central points of the debate.

The Portuguese actor talked about his experience voicing Kratos and reflected on the impact of the God of War franchise on the video game industry. The conversation also addressed how the series helped redefine narrative in games, establishing new standards for interactive storytelling.
