Kratos, the iconic protagonist of the God of War series, may be ready to return to Greece in his next adventure, according to recent reports. After closing the Norse saga in God of War Ragnarök, fans are wondering what the future holds for the franchise, which is currently surrounded by uncertainty and rumors, with no official announcements from Santa Monica Studio.
Kratos returning to the place that saw him born for a great prequel
Initially, it was speculated that the next title could take Kratos to Egypt, igniting excitement among fans. However, new information suggests that, instead, the Spartan warrior could explore his complicated relationship with Zeus in a Greek setting. This possibility has been strengthened by the recent downloadable content Valhalla, which features flashbacks of Kratos’s life in Greece, which many interpret as a hint of his possible return to the place where his odyssey began.
The renowned insider Tom Henderson has mentioned that the upcoming game could be some sort of prequel that would delve into the relationship between a young Kratos and his father Zeus. Although he warns that the details are still uncertain and that this assertion should not be “taken as a fact,” the idea of a return to Greek myths sparks great interest among fans.
With a possible State of Play scheduled for next week, expectations are rising and many are hoping that Santa Monica Studio will reveal information about a new installment of God of War. There is also speculation that they might be working on a remaster of the original God of War trilogy, while simultaneously developing a new saga. The coming days could be crucial to clarify the future of this acclaimed franchise.
