8 Video Game Character Cameos That Made You Go "What?!"

1. Kratos - Shovel Knight

When you're as angry as the God Of War, it's going to be hard to keep all that rage contained in just one game, therefore it's both surprising and at the same time not to see the bald headed Dad Of The Year pop up in the critical darling and all round masterpiece that is Shovel Knight.

After finding the Curious Map item, players could find this ticked off Titan-slayer wandering around, and trust me, it's a bit of a jaw dropping moment. At first players might have just thought this was a cute nod to God Of War, but no, this is actually Kratos and in an even more bizarre moment, Cory Barlog even confirmed that this is a CANNON appearance.

Is this what Kratos was getting up to in between God of War 3 and its reboot in 2018?

Also massive plus points for making Kratos take the everloving piss out of Shovel Knights choice of weapon before then being buried by it.
