Greek fire: meet the Furies of God of War Ascension

The latest God of War: Ascension video delves further into classical Greek mythology, introducing the ‘Furies’. Traditionally, these three women are the daughters of Uranus and Gaea. Each is a goddess of vengeance, with a ruthless obsession in tracking down criminals and rule-breakers.

Looks like the game is broadly sticking to this version of events, though whether the original names (Tisiphone – avenger of murder, Megaera – the jealous and Alecto – constant anger) will be present is not yet clear.

God of War: Ascension is coming to the PS3 in March 2013.
