🎙️ Voice is AI-generated. Inconsistencies may occur.

Most mythological systems have their own variation on the god of war, so, while many of us might know Kratos as the god of war, Norse followers will know Tyr. In God of War Ragnarok, players will interact quite heavily with Tyr, especially as they work their way through the main storyline on display in the newest chapter of the series. But who exactly brings this imposing force to life within the games? Here's what you need to know about Tyr's voice actor.

Tyr is voiced by Ben Prendergast in God of War Ragnarök. Prendergast is listed as an actor, producer, and director on IMDB, and he has lent his acting and voice acting skills to an assortment of credits, including the voice of Fuse in Apex Legends, the voice of Darth Maul and General Hux in The Lego Star Wars Holiday Special, and Star Wars Resistance.

Other credits for Prendergast include additional voices in Horizon Forbidden West, as well as the voice of Johnny Sims in Fallout: The Frontier. He has also appeared in television shows like Preacher, where he played Doorman Sean in the episode "Masada." His first credited role was in 2009 when he appeared in a short called One in a Million.

Prendergast does a great job of bringing Tyr to life in God of War Ragnarök, offering an interesting perspective of the events happening in the story as he explores various realms alongside Kratos and his son, Atreus. Alongside the voice actor behind Thor, Prendergast brings a nice tone and presence to the latest chapter of the God of War franchise.

With Fimbulwinter raging on, there is a lot going on in God of War Ragnarök, but the voice actors bringing Kratos, Atreus, and Tyr to life also have a lot to convey in the scenes that they share across the game's story.

Players encounter Tyr early on in the latest journey that Kratos and Atreus embark on, so fans of the series will see him quite a bit throughout the game's various story segments. And, much like Freya, Tyr is an important side character that players will run into in God of War Ragnarök. So, fans of the series will no doubt be happy to see a talented and skilled voice actor bringing the character to life throughout the game.
