Is God of War Ragnarok the Last Game?
God of War Ragnarok is not the last game in the God of War franchise, as Sony’s Santa Monica Studio is already working on a new God of War project, which could be a standalone game or Ragnarok DLC, set in a different mythological setting. The game’s ending leaves Kratos’ story open for another sequel, and a third game in the Norse Saga seems obvious, given that God of War’s original Greek Saga was a trilogy.
Introduction to God of War Ragnarok
God of War Ragnarok brought an end to the Norse Saga for Kratos and Atreus, but a few loose ends still need tying up in future sequels. The game’s storyline is loosely based on Norse mythology, set in ancient Scandinavia, and features series protagonist Kratos and his now teenage son Atreus.
Future of the God of War Franchise
The future of the God of War franchise is promising, with possibilities of exploring different mythological settings, such as Celtic mythology, which feels adjacent to the Norse pantheon. The game’s director has hinted at the possibility of Kratos traveling to different pantheons of gods, with ancient Egypt being a potential next destination.
