God of War Ragnarok: How To Get To Chest Behind Gate – Lower Wildwoods

Kratos and Atreus in God of War Ragnarok

This guide explains how to get to the chest behind the gate in Lower Wildwoods in God of War Ragnarok.

It has been four years since the release of 2018’s God of War. After that game set such a tremendously high bar and left fans on one almighty cliffhanger, it has been difficult to see how God of War Ragnarok could possibly meet expectations.

Thankfully, God of War Ragnarok has delivered an all-time classic experience. And this sterling sequel is bound to be in contention with Elden Ring for 2022 Game of the Year. It currently stands at a colossal 94/100 on Metacritic having received many 10 out of 10 reviews.

God of War Ragnarok follows father and son duo Kratos and Atreus, the latter now a teenager, as they battle to stop Ragnarok with Fimbulwinter drawing to a close.

The new game picks up right where the previous one left off. And there’s a helpful re-cap option in the main menu.

However, being as a few years have passed since the last game was released, it is likely fans will have to get reacquainted with God of War Ragnarok‘s lore and gameplay.
