Sony has released a teaser video for the upcoming commercial it's going to run during the Superbowl 2013 event for God of War: Ascension.

Without a doubt one of the biggest upcoming PlayStation 3 exclusives is God of War: Ascension, the next hack and slash game from Sony Santa Monica, which hits the console in March.

In order to promote the game, Sony is going all out and will play a special live action commercial during the Superbowl 2013 match between the Baltimore Ravens and the San Francisco 49ers.

Until then, however, Sony has posted a teaser video that shows a bit of footage from the upcoming ad, which was also teased earlier this week.

As you can see in the footage above, the commercial focuses on the wife and daughter of protagonist Kratos, which he slew in a vengeful state caused by Ares.

Fans already know what happened after but Ascension will fill in the gaps before the beginning of the first God of War title.
