A New God of War Game Might Be Coming - And We Might Be Headed Back to Greece

I love God of War. Always have, always will. What started as a rage-fueled button masher on the PS2 has grown into one of the most emotionally rich and visually stunning franchises in gaming—and I'll take literally anything Santa Monica Studios decides to throw our way. So when a new report says there's a God of War spin-off in the works for PS5? Yeah, I'm already sharpening my Blades of Chaos.

According to industry insider Jeff Grubb (who, let's be honest, usually knows his stuff), this new project isn't the long-rumored remastered collection of the original games. Nope—this is something new. A "side story" that reportedly sends Kratos back to Greece. That's right. Before the Norse gods. Before Atreus. Before the Leviathan Axe. Back to where it all began.

If this is true—and again, grain of salt and all that—it sounds like we're getting a Miles Morales-style spin-off: not quite a full sequel, but more than just DLC. And honestly? That's more than enough to get me hyped.

No official word yet from Sony or Santa Monica Studios, but with the God of War 20th anniversary just around the corner, maybe we won't have to wait long…
