How Odin Lost His Eye in God of War Ragnarok
Odin lost an eye presumably from attempting to peer into a mystical rift. In God of War Ragnarok, Odin lifts his eyepatch to reveal the nasty black scar that now marks his face. According to Odin, when he was a much younger god, he found a green rift—a sort of “rip” in the realm itself. Upon further investigation, and presumably coming in contact with the rift, Odin is injured in the process. This is confirmed when Odin pulls Atreus back when he tries to do the same, prompting Odin to show Atreus what being too risky costed him. It’s an interesting twist on the original Norse tale, which states that Odin intentionally sacrificed his eye in order to gain wisdom and knowledge over everything. In God of War Ragnarok, it was accidentally but still with the intention of learning secrets. Now you know how Odin lost his eye in God of War Ragnarok, by being a not-so-cautious young god in pursuit of knowledge.
