Will there be a new God of War? Officially, there is still no information on whether there will be a new God of War. However, it is certain that the authors of God of War: Ragnarok have been working on additional projects for several years.
In fact, lead writer Orion Walker hinted in a post on X back in December 2023 that there will be more Kratos stories after Valhalla. “Do you really think that the credits are the end of the story? Come on,” Walker said in his post.
Recently, fans were excited about the Valhalla expansion:
In addition to this hint, there could be further evidence suggesting that the current project is a new God of War. Previous job postings specifically sought individuals with knowledge of the franchise and its combat.
However, whether and when there will actually be a new game in the beloved series remains to be seen.
What is Cory Barlog excited about now? The Creative Director of God of War, Cory Barlog, spoke on X about one of the next video games that Santa Monica Studios is currently working on.
“I see a few first parts coming together on the thing I’m currently working on,” Barlog said in his post. “[…] and damn, they are more than brilliant,” he describes the people he is currently working with at Sony Santa Monica.
He concludes his post with the words that video games are cool.
New God of War or entirely new game?
In addition to the speculation that the new project could be a new game in the “God of War” series, it is also possible that it could be a completely new and standalone project.
How is the community reacting? Whether it’s a new God of War or a brand new project – fans are excited about a new game from Sony Santa Monica in any case. This is shown by their reactions to Barlog’s post.
There are a lot of enthusiastic, excited, and curious gifs visible. Additionally, questions about a first trailer are being asked or speculations made. Some fans are even simply hoping for a remaster.
