I cannot imagine anything more on-brand for PlayStation Japan than this incredible, pastel-colored sing-along in celebration of the impending launch of God of War Ragnarok.

I could just describe the trailer to you, but I think this Google translation of the official rundown does a more entertaining job of it: "Mr. Sato, wearing a polo shirt and wearing a 'old man' style, appeared in a studio set in the style of a children's program. Together with two macho dancers, he sings 'Goddo Obu Wo Ragnaroku no Uta.' Contrary to the bright atmosphere of the song, Mr. Sato's fresh appearance, which throws an ax and swings a sword, is a must-see." We knew there'd be God of War Ragnarok Special Equipment, but we weren't expecting it to be out of Kratos' hands.

Speaking of Google translation, here's what the AI algorithm says the lyrics of this song come out to.

I don't care whether those lyrics are accurate or not. They're beautiful. I love them.
