God of War 4 (aka God of W4r, God of Four, 4 God 4 Fourious, etc) is, I think it’s fair to say, not what people expected from a God of War follow-up. In it, Kratos has a precious new family member (his beard) and also a son. What does it all mean? Nothing’s concrete yet, but there’s been some interesting speculation.
Despite news of the game leaking out a little while ago, Sony today made it official that a new God of War is coming, and sees Kratos head to the frosty north to take on the great Norse Gods.
You must have heard by now. Word on the grapevine is that God of War is swapping out a loin cloth for hide trousers, sandals for boots, and the Blades of Chaos for axes, and heading north to desecrate the world of Norse mythology.
At least that's what some people seem to think when looking at this teaser for a teaser. Kratos did want vengeance and was in need of redemption, after all. We'll all know if Kratos is coming back for more blood and fornication next week.
Sony's God Of War series may be set for a fourth home console title, with a source telling PSM3 that God Of War 4 will be out in September 2012. Try not to act too surprised.
