God of War: Ascension is out this March and Sony has decided to team up with the History Channel to cross-promote the new game and the upcoming Vikings TV series by offering a special bonus weapon for the game's multiplayer exclusively from Best Buy.

God of War: Ascension will not only let players take protagonist Kratos on a new story, but also give them a chance to create their own heroes in a multiplayer mode.

Now, in order to cross-promote the game with the History Channel's upcoming Vikings series, Sony has confirmed that those who pre-order God of War: Ascension from Best Buy will receive a special voucher code that nets them a Mjolnir hammer weapon in the multiplayer.

Besides the unique hammer modeled after that of Norse god Thor, the voucher also unlocks, according to the PS blog, the Mythological Heroes Multiplayer pack, which includes four unique armor sets based on ancient Greece's mightiest heroes: Achilles, Perseus, Orion, and Odysseus.

God of War: Ascension is out in March exclusively for the PS3.

Mjolnir looks awesome and History is one of my favorite channels, so I know where I’ll be picking my copy up! I’ve gotten myself so psyched up for Ascension that I rented the God of War Collection and God of War 3 through Blockbuster @Home from DISH, and I’ve been replaying them to keep me busy. Because I’m a DISH employee, I like to try out all the different products and services we come out with—partially so I can answer questions for customers—which is why when we released Blockbuster @Home, I was excited to give it a go. Before that I would simply purchase all the games I wanted to play, but that gets expensive. I don’t spend as much these days though; now that I rent my games from Blockbuster @Home, with its flat-monthly rate, instead of buying them at sixty bucks each, I can keep my gaming habit and still pay all my other bills!
