God of War Ragnarök

Future Outlook: What Lies Beyond the Norse Saga?

While God of War Ragnarök provides a definitive conclusion to the Norse mythology arc for Kratos and Atreus, speculation abounds regarding the future of the critically acclaimed franchise:

• New God of War Project (Rumored): Industry insider Jeff Grubb has continuously reported on a new God of War project rumored for release in 2025, describing it as a “standalone side-story” with a smaller scope, akin to Spider-Man: Miles Morales or The Last of Us: Left Behind. This rumored project is said to potentially return to Greek mythology, the original setting for Kratos’s brutal journey, which has excited long-time fans. Whether it stars Kratos or Atreus (perhaps exploring his journey outside the Nine Realms, possibly even to ancient Greece in search of Giants) remains a subject of intense fan speculation.
• Spin-offs or Remasters: Given PlayStation’s successful strategy of bringing its exclusives to PC, it’s possible that older God of War titles (like the original PS2 trilogy or God of War: Ascension) could eventually receive remasters or PC ports, allowing a wider audience to experience Kratos’s full, brutal history and expand the franchise’s reach even further.
