Upcoming God of War game may be a prequel: Reports

The next God of War game might return to Greece, the series' early location, according to reports. Another Greek God of War game might be a good way to wrap up a storyline loophole from the 2018 relaunch, even though fans might anticipate a completely new pantheon of gods in the franchise's next installment. In the Greek God of War trilogy, Kratos' story of retribution is one of the most well-known tales in game history.

After a thrilling 2010 finale with God of War 3, Santa Monica Studio released God of War Ascension in 2013. This prequel was the final God of War game to be set in Greece. In 2018, Santa Monica Studio soft-rebooted the series using the Norse pantheon. Since 2022's God of War Ragnarok brought the Norse saga to a close, fans have been eager to find out whose pantheon Kratos will appear next. The majority of fans are presently betting that Egypt will be the location of the upcoming God of War game, but a recent rumor might suggest otherwise.

The next God of War game will take place in Greece and will feature a younger Kratos, according to respected industry insider Tom Henderson, who denied the Egypt story on the Insider Gaming Weekly podcast. Kratos' relationship with his father is supposedly the main theme of the story, although given what happened in God of War 3, this isn't a clue. 

Santa Monica Studio will probably return to Greece 

It's interesting to note that Henderson was unable to clarify whether this purported game would be a new prequel to the Greek epic or if it would be connected in any way to the old God of War titles that were reportedly remastered for the series' 20th anniversary this year. To resolve the still unresolved plot thread of Kratos' reappearance in the Norse realms following the conclusion of God of War 3, Santa Monica Studio will probably return to Greece for the upcoming God of War game.
