God of War Kills Two Birds With One Stone
The God of War series may be getting ready to return to Greek mythology. Leaked information suggests that Santa Monica Studio is seriously considering the idea of reopening Kratos’ past. This move is not only intended to create nostalgia, but also to allow Atreus’ story to progress freely. In short, the team is looking to kill two birds with one stone.
God of War Plan: Kratos to the Past, Atreus to the Future
Kratos, who has confronted the Norse gods in the last two games, may now turn his route to his old enemies. Returning to the series’ roots seems like a good opportunity to both complete Kratos’ character development and tell Atreus’ new journey in a separate way. In this way, a door of nostalgia will be opened for old players, and Kratos’ past will become more meaningful for new players.
Another advantage of this plan is that it can offer variety in gameplay. If Santa Monica carries out Greek and Norse mythologies with parallel stories, it can offer two very different experiences in terms of both atmosphere and gameplay in the same series. Players can witness Atreus’ adventure and have the chance to dive into Kratos’ past again.
According to sources close to the studio, although this idea is still in the discussion phase, it seems inevitable that the God of War universe will be expanded again. Especially considering that Kratos has unfinished accounts, this return could have a strong impact both in terms of narrative and emotional context.
There is no official announcement yet, but the community is increasingly expecting it. Even the idea of Kratos facing his old enemies again is enough to create excitement. If this plan comes to life, it could bring a fresh breath to the series in terms of both story and gameplay. For now, all we have to do is wait for the first signal from Sony.
