Rumor: Sony Developing a New God of War Set in Egyptian Mythology
[summaraize]
Just days after the news about the cancellation of the God of War live-service project by Bluepoint, a new rumor has surfaced about the future of the popula Santa Monica series, bringing excitement to fans.
With the Norse saga seemingly wrapped up in the finale of God of War: Ragnarok, fans are now wondering what’s next for Kratos. A new report suggests that Sony is “likely” working on the next God of War game, this time set in Egyptian mythology.
New God of War Game Reportedly Set in Egypt
This information comes from insider Daniel Richtman (more famously known as DanielRPK), who shared the update via a post on his Patreon (via The Game Post). Richtman disclosed that Sony is “casting Middle Eastern actors for an unknown AAA game” and suggested that the project “will likely be the next God of War that explores Egyptian mythology.”
This isn’t the first time Egyptian mythology has been considered for the franchise. In the Making Of documentary for God of War (2018), creative director Cory Barlog revealed that the team initially debated setting the series in Ancient Egypt after God of War 3 and God of War: Ascension. Although the Norse mythology route was ultimately chosen, there’s nothing stopping the series from exploring new mythologies now.
Additionally, there’s no official confirmation about what Santa Monica studio is currently working on. While some rumors and clues point to a new God of War, others suggest the team may be working on a new IP. It’s also possible that the studio is managing multiple projects simultaneously.
However, as of now, there’s been no official confirmation of this rumor, so it’s best to approach it with a huge grain of salt. As we get more information, we’ll make sure to keep you guys informed here at MP1st.

Kill the boy and give us ANGRY Kratos again. Him destroying Egyptian Gods will be amazing. It will suck if they focus on the son and try to make Kratos a wimp again. Also, get rid of the axe, it was fuckin lame and boring. Make his chains his primary weapon again.
