Rumour: God of War Is Taking a 'Younger' Kratos Back to Greece

Apparently, the next God of War game is going back to the series' Greek origins, and will star a "younger" Kratos.

That's according to reliable insider Tom Henderson, speaking on his weekly Insider Gaming podcast.

Rumours have been swirling around a new God of War title for ages, with the most recent whispers suggesting that the franchise is going to jump over to Egyptian mythology. However, Henderson mentions that he received information from an unnamed source after those rumours had taken off.

"What I've been told, [the God of War game] isn't set in Egypt, it's actually set in Greece," he reveals. "And it's gonna be a younger Kratos this time," he adds.

Henderson then speculates over what this project could actually be. He's unsure whether it has anything to do with potential remakes or remasters of the original trilogy — which have also been rumoured previously — and there's a chance that it could be some sort of reboot, or even a prequel.
