After bidding farewell to Norse mythology, the God of War series is looking for a new direction for Kratos’ adventures. With God of War Ragnarök and the Valhalla DLC marking the end of the Scandinavian storyline, the series may not take players on a new journey but rather send them back in time. Unexpected claims have surfaced regarding a God of War remaster.

Is God of War preparing a big surprise for its 20th anniversary?

The inclusion of weapons inspired by Aztec, Egyptian, and Japanese mythology in the Valhalla DLC hints at the possibility of the series exploring different cultural mythologies. However, recent leaks suggest a completely different scenario.

According to rumors, Santa Monica Studio may be preparing a remastered trilogy of the original God of War games, returning the series to its roots. These claims have gained traction with the 20th anniversary of the first God of War game, which will be celebrated on March 22. Ragnarök director Cory Barlog has also made some hints related to the 20th anniversary, sparking further intrigue.

The recent State of Play event, where no God of War announcements were made, has only increased expectations. While the remastered trilogy rumor seems plausible, it’s important to remember that Kratos could still venture into new mythological regions, like Egypt. The references in the Valhalla DLC support this possibility.

Whether we’ll see a new game or a remaster remains to be seen. What do you think about this rumor?
