1* RoleReprise: Carole Ruggier, the voice of Athena, voiced the same character in ''VideoGame/AgeOfMythology''.
2* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
3** Kratos originally looked [[https://www.siliconera.com/god-of-war-character-concept-art-before-and-after/ much different]].
4** The original game contained three bonus videos hinting where the series could go next. These concepts would be recycled for ''VideoGame/GodOfWarGhostOfSparta'', ''VideoGame/GodOfWarII'', and ''VideoGame/GodOfWarIII'' though heavily altered:
5*** ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=4&v=kNH7nmeHmvI The Fate of the Titan]]'' shows Kronos' corpse being discovered in the desert by modern archaeologists who would explore the temple's contents, suggesting a new hero would arise. Interestingly, Cronos has a hole in his forehead, roughly where Kratos canonically stabbed him with the Blade of Olympus.
6*** ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=psKDIKW1XuY Birth of the Beast]]'' revealed the existence of Kratos' brother Deimos, who ended up in the Underworld and became a demon seeking revenge against Kratos for abandoning him, when the two were separated because Deimos was deemed weak as a child.
7*** ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tElSeFbncKY A Secret Revealed]]'' shows Kratos, now God of War, tracking down his mother to learn his father's identity. In her attempt to tell Kratos, a curse turned her into a monster that Kratos has to slay, but in her final breath, revealed that Kratos was the son of Zeus, leaving Kratos with a desire for revenge.
8** The Cyclops was originally going to have a visible penis, because the game director wanted them to have a feel similar to zoo animals.
