A recent tweet from a Santa Monica developer has hinted that the upcoming PS5 event might have a God of War reveal as well. The highly anticipated title will likely be a sequel of the critically acclaimed God of War (2018), which sold over 10 million units.

The latest entry in the classic franchise, God of War, was released back in 2018, and it managed to win a plethora of awards including the much-coveted Game of the Year award at Game Awards 2018. Despite the game following the events of its predecessors, it was considered a soft reboot because it had completely revamped several core aspects of the franchise. While previous titles were based on Greek Mythology, God of War focused on the Norse Mythology, taking players to the five mythical realms including the likes of Midgard and Helheim. The transition of Kratos’ character from the merciless God in previous titles to the responsible and compassionate father was widely acclaimed by the community.

In a recent tweet (via The Game Post), God of War Engineering Lead Jeet Shroff urged fans to join the PS5 reveal event to “get into the details about what the future has in store.” A number of job listings have suggested that a new God of War is in development and the tweet further hints towards the fact that the PS5 might see a new title in the God of War franchise.

The events of God of War hint towards Thor being the antagonist in the future. It’s also been speculated that Santa Monica will be focusing on Atreus in the next iteration, as the narrative predominantly emphasized on Atreus’ identity towards the end. However, Santa Monica might not exclude Kratos completely given that it focused so much on building the father-son dynamic. Rumors have also suggested that the game might be known as God of War Fimbulwinter, as Fimbulwinter is the period that precedes Ragnarok in Norse mythology.

Multiple devs and insiders have suggested that the PS5 might set a benchmark for the gaming industry. As of now, Horizon Zero Dawn 2 and Gran Turismo are the two titles that are most-often rumored to be a part of the PlayStation 5 reveal event. A God of War reveal would surely build up the hype around the console and if Sony showcases the gameplay as well, players might even see what the PS5’s hardware is capable of.
