Until that happens, please take this news with a grain of salt.Moving to Egyptian mythology wouldn’t be surprising should it happen. The God of War saga began in Greek mythology before shifting to Norse for the modern games. Moving to a new pantheon would make sense for next era of the franchise. As far as Egyptian specifically, it’s been mentioned in the past (h/t The Game Post) that Sony Santa Monica originally considered centering the game around Egyptian mythology for the 2018 revival before settling on Norse.“I think the first pitch I gave was that we wouldn’t even know what was happening,” creative director Cory Barlog said. “So i t was Kratos walking through the desert—because we were, in my mind, still doing Egypt initially—wind, sand blowing all over the place as he’s kind of crawling through and then kind of stands up over a dune and checks out this really fantastic ancient city.”What do you think about Egypt and its lore being the focus of the next God of War game?
