Let's see the world of God of War with the journey of kratos.

Midgard

Midgard (Old Norse: Miðgarðr), also known as Ancient Scandinavia, is one of the Nine Realms of the World Tree and the home of Midgardians. Strategically situated halfway between Asgard—to which the realm is connected via the Bifröst—and Helheim—where most of the mortals end up upon their death—Midgard is the cornerstone of the Norse realms, fundamentally emphasizing the balance between heaven and hel, order and chaos. Created long ago by the All-Father himself out of Ymir's body, Midgard was modeled in such a way as to be able to accomodate the human kind.

Alfheim

Alfheim, also known as Álfheimr, is one of the Nine Realms of the World Tree, home of the Light and Dark Elves and a major location in God of War (2018).

Niflheim

According to the Norse story of creation, Niflheim was the first of the Nine Worlds to be brought into being. Before the worlds were created, there was only an empty void known as Ginnungagap. In the north of Ginnungagap there was a spring called Hvergelmir. The northern reaches were so cold, however, that the water of Hvergelmir froze. This frozen land became Niflheim. It was a frozen world of frost and mist. The south of Ginnungagap was hot. As it grew hotter it, too, formed a primordial world. This was Muspelheim, the land of fire.
