Santa Monica Studio / God of War
We can all use some more God of War in our lives, and according to a very reliable video game insider, we can possibly expect to beat up some Greek deities this year.
A new God of War game, reportedly in the form of a smaller spinoff like Insomniac’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales, will see the franchise return to its Greek roots.
The buzz about the new game comes on the heels of PlayStation celebrating the franchise’s 20th anniversary with a free update for Ragnarök that features some dope cosmetics.
Outside of that, Sony Santa Monica has been very quiet about its plans for the God of War franchise in the future and its next project following the release of the Valhalla DLC for Ragnarök in 2023. Still, there have been rumblings of a remaster of older GoW games.
Giant Bomb’s Jeff Grubb, who is basically the Adrian Wojnarowski, Shams Charania, and Adam Schefter of video names, claims that a God of War “side-story project” will arrive sometime this year.
“OK. Everyone keeps asking about this, so I’ve tried to find out more: There’s still a Greek God of War thing coming out this year, but it’s not a remaster collection. It’s a new side-story project, ” Grubb wrote on Bluesky.
Jeff Grubb Is Not So Sure About The Remaster Collection
He also kind of threw cold water on the remaster talk, writing in another post on Bluesky, “I was never told about a Remaster collection, but I asked a source about the rumors (that I saw were focused on a collection), and they told me that nothing God of War would happen at the State of Play but something could show up at the anniversary.
Consider us excited for whatever Sony Santa Monica has coming.
In Grubb, we trust.
