Forbes: New God of War to be announced at Sony E3 presser

Forbes is reporting that a new God of War title will be announced at Sony’s press conference tomorrow morning. The report says that it’ll be a “new 3D adventure.” The last big GoW title was God of War III on PS3 last March from Sony Santa Monica, with the last in the series altogether being PSP title Ghost of Sparta from Ready at Dawn. Sony’s E3 event happens from 1.00am BST tomorrow morning.

Thanks, GAF.

It’s not a reboot, judging by the GOD OF WAR 3 ending, story continues.

@5
or does it? Kratos wanted only to end his revange, Kill Zues, the only way how I can imagine is that the rest of the Gods are going after Kratos to do their revange justice. Maybe Deimos comes along to kill Kratos for killing his father Ares (the proper Deimos who is the personification of terror and not Kratoses brother who god knows why has this name)

I hope it’s an NGP game from Ready at Dawn; I’d rather Santa Monica be working on something else, something new.

OH Kratos die already, I’m bored to death with greek mythology, I want Norse ones, I want a descent game that I can meet Odin and grab some tea and kick whatever we could kick together.. enough of Kratos, it lost it’s appeal and charms…

hasnt anyone of you played GOW 3 ? seriously after the credits kratos is dragged of the edge of the cliff by something mysterious? so maybe this next GOW game could follow on from that…..

@10
was draged? thats the whole beauty of the ending, we don’t know what happend.
he was draged, he crawled away, he jumpt in to the sea and comited susite, we don’t know, so the ending opens up for a possible sequal

I assumed he crawled away.

Didn’t Athena turn out to be guiding Kratos for her own gain at the end? The plot could carry on from there.

Although I’d rather it not. I’d rather we be introduced to a new character, in a new mythology, with a new skill set, and have the story cleverly woven into the extended plight of Kratos.

Apparently Santa Monica will be showing 4 games:

No idea if this is one of them though, because that guy says that they have 8 games, all from “external teams”. GoW tends to internal.

Guys! Guys!
Maybe Sony and Nintendo are making a God of War game for the 3DS.

God Of War for Move only? Or for NGP? Possible. But after playing GoW3 I´m done with this “stuff” for the moment. I don´t want Sony to present more games. I want them to improve their online-service. And with that I don´t mean this hacker stuff but more demos, trailers and so on!

@16, LOL, last time they worked together, *Nintendo stabbed Sony in the back so Sony used what they had learned to create the PlayStation which was originally going to contain a NES cartridge slot.

*Nintendo weren’t paying attention when Sony wanted to join the games industry. Sony wanted to do more than just attach a CD tray to a console, they wanted to be partners so Nintendo quietly dumped them part way through development after they had already agreed on the stipulations.

Perhaps they will go the way of Darksiders 2 and we will get a new anti-hero.
