"There’s been a burst of fresh speculation in the last few days that Sony is working on a fourth console installment of God of War since supposed whispers of Kratos’ return were leaked in January, and it’s actually starting to seem feasible.
It all started when Playstation revealed a graphic on its Facebook page on Thursday with the simple tagline: ‘Will Vengeance Bring Redemption?’, and promising a related game reveal on April 19th. True, revenge was always a vital theme in the franchise, being the entire impetus for Kratos’ ambitious war on Olympus and the colour scheme and art style do, to some degree, fit with God of War‘s luscious looks. Though tenous, the series’ name has been thrown around the comments section more than any other."
Sony's PlayStation 4 is home to a number of great exclusives, here we take a look at the ten best ones available for gamers right now.
Every now and again a video game reboot comes along that completely changes how you feel about its characters, message, and the overall franchise. For many people that was God of War, when creative director Cory Barlog reimagined it in the Norse world. Now this might sound ridiculous, but the next candidate could very well be Megaman. Yes, seriously. Artist Marco Plouffe drew the bright blue hero as if he has been brought up in the harsh world of furs, ale, and gods that are a bit too enthusiastic about killing each other and giving birth to giant serpents.
Hats off for the quality of the picture but it's just shaved Kratos with a helmet. Should be blue surely.
While this was a great article and concept, I think this "wow let's copy god of war" "wow let's copy battle royal" "let's copy soulsbourne" or whatever is more bad than good for the gaming industry. Why not take, in this example God Of War "style", but put it in let say a middle east setting?
I understand small studios (and ea ms studios) wants to copy everything under the sun, but if you can't come up with your own ideas, why have a studio to begin with?
TLDR; be unique - not a rip off from yesteryear
Atreus was a seminal part of God of War but he also was a huge headache. Here's how the team at Sony Santa Monica not only made the boy tolerable, but an invaluable asset.
cant wait.
The God of war games have great story and gameplay. The characters besides kratos aren't that memorable though. I hope they improve on that in the 4th of the series.
If it's not god of war then most likely it's heavenly sword 2.
can't f wait
