The latestGod of Warinstallment mistreat forth from Grecian mythology and put the stress on Norse mythology . And considering how critically and commerciallysuccessful 2018’sGod of Warwas , which has since become a agency for the doggedness of single - role player game , another sequel is all but confirmed . While nothing official has been revealed , there ’s a lot that can be deduced from what has been revealed about the future of theGod of Warfranchise thus far .

Sony Santa Monica has not revealedGod of War 5 ’s release date yet or even when to expect the new statute title . However , series manager Cory Barlog recently said that the next installmentwon’t take another 5 years to developlike 2018’sGod of Wardid . That intend audiences should carry to seeGod of War 5hit depot shelves no later on than 2022 - but , hopefully , a little second earlier .

God of War 5’s Story Will Continue Norse Mythology

God of War 5will keep the history left off by the lastGod of Wargame and research Norse mythology in greater contingent , just like how the originalGod of Wartrilogy did with Greek mythology . concisely before the latestGod of Wargame released in April 2018 , Sony Santa Monica senior online community strategist Aaron Kaufman confirmed that extra installments in the franchise willfollow Norse mythologyand that gamers need n’t have act the original game to bring and/or sympathise the subsequence since the storey has , in some ways , been restarted .

While the developer may not release another seven game in the serial - with all of them focusing on Norse mythology -God of War ’s endingdid set up a new trilogy . Based on the consequence of the new title , it looks likeFreya will be the main opposer inGod of War 5 , with the overall chronicle arc adapting the event of Ragnarok - a prophesied depiction of a series of events that will bring about the final stage of all things and the deaths of most of the Norse gods , such as Odin , Thor , and Loki . In the sequel , however , it seems Kratos and Loki will have to take on Freya , Odin , and Thor . This may , of line , carry over toGod of War 6as the decision of the Norse storyline .

God of War 5 Will Have Bigger Fights

God of War 4wasn’t exactly an opened - worldly concern biz in the traditional sense , but it was open , something that differed from previous installments . regard everything that croak into the new biz , it do sentiency thatGod of War 5not only would continue down that path but also be jolly self-aggrandising in scale . That ’s unremarkably the case with sequels , after all . According to environmental creative person Nate Stephens , a potentialGod of War 5would also have bounteous fights .

Almost two months of 2018’sGod of Wargame released , Stephens revealed that if Kratos were to fulfil with Odin or Thor , it would have to be self-aggrandising and well than what they did with this unexampled installment . moreover , the story itself would be much longer . SinceGod of War 4was an astounding critical achievement , God of War 5supposedly being bigger , better , and longer is everything fans could hope for .

God of War Director Has 5 Sequels Planned

God of War 4took the enfranchisement into a new direction , literally ramify off from Greek mythology for the first prison term . Because of that , there are slew of stories left to tell . And shortly after the 2018 installment collide with store shelves , Sony Santa Monica originative director Cory Barlog revealed that he currently has five more game planned in his head ( viaKotaku ) . Whether or not all those installments continue the Norse musical theme , or even end up happen at all , remains to be see , but it ’s safe to say that at least one or two will go atomic number 79 one day . The question is , when ?

Current reports bespeak that Sony willrelease the PlayStation 5 by 2021 . It ’s undecipherable what the rumor video game console would consist of , but it will without a doubt be more powerful than what is already out today . Plus , give that 2021 is only three twelvemonth away , God of War 5will more than probable firing on the PlayStation 5 , though it ’s also possible that it might be one of the last major first - political party games to free on the PlayStation 4 as well .

However , developingGod of War 5for the PlayStation 5isn’t something that Barlog is bet onward to , if a sequel pass . To him , as a developer , it ’s metre - consume and understandably tedious to overtake a plot engine for a new platform , even if that political program comes from within the same ship’s company . And , since Barlog said the next game wo n’t take another half - decade to develop , it stands to rationality thatGod of War 5may have a release schedule alike to the originalGod of Wargame as well as Naughty Dog’sThe Last of Us .
