God Of War 4: 6 Potential Directions It Could Take

4. A Sequel Set In Modern Times

Sony€™s roadmap for the God of War at one stage had a sequel set in modern times penciled onto it, the original game€™s hidden ending 'Fate of the Titan' tells us at much. For anyone who didn€™t beat the game on Spartan difficulty (or has never stumbled upon the ending on YouTube), it depicted a band of explorers discovering Pandora€™s Temple thousands of years later, and speaks of myths being awakened and new heroes rising. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Z-v8ckecWE Was this a red herring, an idea that was scrapped somewhere along the line, or the setup for God of War 4? Although the latter seems unlikely considering the sequence dates back ten years, the concept of a modern day sequel is an idea with potential. Reviving Kratos in present day is probably a terrible direction to take, but the concept of modern hero and villains stumbling upon weaponry and powers from Greek mythology is a setup that could pave the way for another truly great trilogy.
