The God of War series is one of the greatest in gaming history, delivering an incredible mix of epic action, deep storytelling, and immersive gameplay. With growing rumors about the next installment, an exciting question arises… Will we return to the roots of the story in Ancient Greece, or embark on a completely new adventure in Ancient Egypt? 

Back to the Origins of the Legend?

There’s a lot of speculation about the next game, but journalist Tom Henderson from Insider Gaming hinted that the upcoming installment might take us back to Kratos' early days in Ancient Greece! 

What could this mean?

• Could it be a prequel, covering Kratos’ life before becoming the God of War?
• Or could it be a completely new story, revealing unknown secrets from his past?
• Will we see Kratos’ memories of his old family before the tragedy that changed everything?
• If this turns out to be true, we might experience Greek mythology through a different perspective and with fresh gameplay mechanics, possibly with a new storytelling approach.

Ancient Egypt… The New Destination?

• On the other hand, other rumors suggest that Santa Monica Studio might be planning to set the story in Ancient Egypt! 
• Imagine this… Kratos facing off against the pharaohs and their powerful gods! 
• Picture him battling Anubis, Ra, and Set in massive temples with breathtaking mythical scenery.
• The gameplay could be completely different from previous installments, possibly introducing new mechanics like Egyptian magic or divine abilities!
• The story itself could take an unexpected turn, placing Kratos at the center of a conflict between good and evil in Egyptian mythology.

Which Is the Right Choice?

Honestly, whether we return to Ancient Greece or travel to Ancient Egypt, both options have incredible potential.

Ancient Greece:

• Brings the series back to its legendary roots.
• Could provide a deeper look into Kratos’ past.
• Offers a chance to retell key events in a fresh and unique way.

Ancient Egypt:

• A completely new setting, full of mysteries and legendary gods.
• Introduces powerful new enemies that could rival or even surpass those Kratos has faced before.
• Could bring innovative gameplay mechanics tailored to Egyptian mythology.

If you had the choice, would you prefer the next adventure to be set in Ancient Greece or Ancient Egypt?
