God Of War 4: 6 Potential Directions It Could Take

5. A Spinoff Starring Deimos

Kratos€™s journey from God of War to vengeful god-slayer may be complete, but fans aren€™t as well acquainted with his brother, Deimos, a Spartan warrior who was referenced in God of War 3, and played a key role in the PSP prequel Ghost of Sparta. Those well versed in their God of War lore will point out that Deimos met his maker at the end of Ghost of Sparta, but since when does death mean anything in Greek mythology? Its annals are awash with stories of resurrection and the afterlife. There are countless ways that Kratos€™s battle-scarred brother could cheat death and spearhead God of War 4 as the franchise€™s new protagonist, either to bridge gaps in his backstory or carry the saga forwards beyond the events of the third core entry in the series. The world-shattering events of God of War 3 left Ancient Greece in an ugly state, so perhaps the next sequel could follow the exploits of Deimos in a post-apocalyptic world? Better yet, he could team up with Kratos to treat players to some no-holds-barred co-op action.
