In God of War series
God of War Comics
Artemis appears in God of War Comics, in the period before Kratos become Ghost of Sparta. She is seen amongst the Gods, who have challenged each other in game. Each of the Gods chose a Champion and sent him to reach Spire of Asclepius. Artemis' Champion was Pothia. However, Pothia was slain by Kratos, thus removing any chances of Artemis winning.
God of War
In God of War, Artemis appears to Kratos shortly after he enters Pandora's Temple. She then gives him the Blade of Artemis (a blade she used to slay a Titan) to aid him in his quest to defeat Ares.
God of War: Betrayal
While Artemis herself is never seen nor mentioned in God of War: Betrayal, her sword is still in the possession of Kratos, who uses it against his earthly enemies during his godhood.
God of War III
Artemis strangely does not make an appearance nor is she mentioned in God of War III. It is assumed that she is dead by the end of God of War III, as a result of the deaths of Gaia and Zeus, which led to the destruction of Olympus.
