Is this artwork from the rumoured Norse God of War game?

Concept art hits the internet as site responsible for leak disappears.
Rasmus Lund-Hansen 5 April 2016

Rumours of a new God of War game based on Norse mythology hit the internet last night, and a stack of concept art has landed to go alongside it.

The game allegedly will feature a bearded Kratos killing his way through "Alfheim", the "home of the fairies." A site called Nerdleaks were first to publish the info, and apparently that's had repercussions for them - their Twitter account has since been deleted, and their entire site has been removed as well, replaced by a placeholder page by domain registrar GoDaddy.

But while Nerdleaks has seemingly been Cease & Desist'ed into oblivion, the artwork they published is floating around on Imgur. And in all honesty, it looks kinda crap. But we'll give it the benefit of doubt and assume it's more along the lines of prototype work done while figuring out the game's art style rather than finished pieces of concept art determining its look.
