Which Norse god is the father of Thor in God of War Ragnarök?

The story behind the answer

Odin is Thor’s father in God of War Ragnarök.

Odin is portrayed as the ruler of Asgard and the leader of the Aesir gods. He seeks knowledge and control over the events surrounding Ragnarök, and his efforts bring him into direct conflict with Kratos, Atreus, and their allies.

Thor is one of Odin’s sons and serves as a powerful enforcer for Asgard. Their family relationship is important to the game’s story, especially as Thor struggles with expectations placed on him by his father and with the consequences of his past violence.

Baldur is also Odin’s son in the game’s mythology, while Týr is presented as another god connected to the Aesir. Freyr belongs to the Vanir and is Freya’s brother, not Thor’s father.
