Summary
- A new God of War project set in Greek mythology is rumored for release this year.
- The project will be a standalone side-story, not a remaster collection, focusing on a smaller scope.
- Fans speculate the game may have a scope similar to The Last of Us: Left Behind or Spider-Man: Miles Morales.
Jeff Grubb shared that there’s a new God of War project set within the series’ Greek mythology and that it might be released this year. Although many gamers assumed that things like Valhalla and the recent Dark Odyssey skin collection might be the last few things fans would be getting during the wait between God of War releases, it seems like a lot could be coming down the pipeline.
Many gamers are wondering what’s next for the God of War series now that it’s been three years since the release of Ragnarok. Some people noticed a PlayStation job listing highlighting that the recruit would join the team that created God of War, and others just feel like the team at Santa Monica Studio has been suspiciously quiet about new projects. It appears fans are right about a new game in the franchise coming this year.

God of War Fans Have New Code to Redeem, But They Aren’t Happy
God of War’s 20th Anniversary bonus on the PlayStation Network is leaving a lot of fans angry, as they were expecting a bigger celebration.
Jeff Grubb posted on social media saying he expects a new God of War game to be released this year. The title will be unrelated to the long-rumored series remaster collection. This project will be its own “side-story” that aims for a smaller scope, making it more manageable to release so soon after Ragnarok. Grubb expanded on these rumors, stating that his sources did not tell him about any God of War remaster collection, noting that the franchise wouldn’t show up at the recent PlayStation State of Play and that it would get news closer to its anniversary.
God of War to Revisit Greece
OK. Everyone keeps asking about this, so I’ve tried to find out more: There’s still a Greek God of War thing coming out this year, but it’s not a remaster collection. It’s a new side-story project.

One detail about this project that fans may find most exciting is that it will be a new entry for the Greek God of War outings. Grubb’s thread was a follow-up about his response to Kris Anka’s art piece for Gallery Nucleus’ God of War 20th anniversary show. At the time, Grubb said that the rumors about the God of War remasters “jumped the gun,” and that they’d happen closer to the timeline of these anniversary projects.
Some fans continued the conversation with Jeff Grubb, asking how a new God of War project would be released so quickly, and he responded by saying “set your expectations lower.” He has stated that Cory Barlog could be involved, but this is not the game that Barlog has been working on since God of War 4. When another speculated that this project could be God of War Ragnarok DLC, he emphasized that this project would be a separate title. These pieces of information have drawn many to conclude that this new God of War entry may have a scope similar to The Last of Us: Left Behind. It could also end up being a project much like Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales, which offered gamers a compact release with plenty of new ideas while waiting for the next big drop. It looks like there’s more previously unexpected news on the horizon for the God of War series.
