The next God of War may pull Kratos into a whole new pantheon this time, in Egypt. That’s the word from new leaks, but without a peep from PlayStation or Santa Monica Studio, fans should tread carefully.
God of War leak teases Egyptian gods showdown
According to recent whispers, Kratos isn’t done swinging blades just yet. A leak shared by Tom Henderson on the Insider Gaming podcast claims the next God of War is already in development and it’s taking a hard turn into Egyptian mythology. The twist? Kratos may now wield an Egyptian sword.
Assassin’s Creed Shadows drops its first DLC, Claws of Awaji, with new weapons, enemies, and over 10 hours of story content.
No official word from PlayStation or Santa Monica
Despite the growing buzz, neither Santa Monica Studio nor PlayStation has confirmed the project. This silence isn’t unusual, but it does leave everything on shaky ground. Fans know the franchise is far from over, but until real announcements drop, this is all just smoke.
Kratos and Atreus could reunite once more
One key detail making the rounds is that Kratos will remain the playable lead, with Atreus possibly returning at his side. Their father-son arc drove the last two entries, and it looks like that thread may continue. But this time, they could be clashing with Egyptian deities gods like Ra, Anubis, or Set.
Here are a few major possibilities fans are speculating about:
- Kratos may wield a new Egyptian weapon
- Atreus could return as a supporting character
- The game might explore pyramids, temples, and ancient curses
- New divine enemies may include Osiris or Horus
- Themes of resurrection and balance might dominate the narrative
Egyptian mythology brings fresh potential
Egyptian lore offers endless material sun gods, underworld journeys, divine judgments. It’s rich ground for a character like Kratos, whose past runs deep with rage, loss, and power struggles. It’s a natural fit for the series’ brutal, emotional tone.
But caution is key for God of War fans
Even with excitement building, fans should keep expectations in check. There’s been no trailer, no tease, no logo. And given the many God of War projects underway, including the Amazon series, it’s unclear how far along this new game actually is.
Still, if these leaks hold water, Egypt might be the next myth Kratos rips through.
And in that desert heat, the gods might bleed.
