This is the first time that gamers will be able to guide Thor on a solo adventure as he faces a horde of beasts from Norse mythology and vanquishes them with his legendary hammer Mjolnir.

The more enemies Thor vanquishes the more Valour he earns which he can use to increases his array of skills and powers in battle.
