A recent job listing on Santa Monica Studio's website suggests that the claimed God of War series is gearing up for another installation. Following the conclusion of the Norse saga with 2022's "Ragnarok" and the subsequent release of the free-to-play "Valhalla" DLC in 2023, which both laid groundwork for future narratives, fans have been eagerly anticipating the next chapter.
The conclusion of "God of War Ragnarok" sees Kratos embracing a newfound role of hope, setting out to rebuild the shattered realms after the cataclysmic events. Meanwhile, Atreus embarks on his own quest to uncover the mysteries of the Giants. The "Valhalla" DLC not only took players to the Norse afterlife but also hinted at potential encounters with other mythologies such as Egyptian, Japanese, and Mayan, expanding the scope of the series.
With these narrative threads in place, the prospect of a new God of War installation seems increasingly likely, especially given Santa Monica Studio's recent job posting. The studio is actively seeking a Quest Designer for an undisclosed "character-centric action game," with a requirement for a deep understanding of the God of War universe. This emphasis on familiarity with the series' lore strongly suggests that the next game will continue the saga of Kratos and Atreus.
While some may speculate that other job listings, such as the search for a Senior Combat Designer familiar with the mechanics of previous titles, could be for a different project, the specificity of the Quest Designer role points directly to a new God of War title.

The anticipation for a new installment is palpable, but hardly unexpected. God of War remains one of Sony's flagship franchises, with the reboot in 2018 and "Ragnarok" collectively selling over 38 million copies by November 2023. Given the enduring demand from fans and the franchise's historical success, it's no surprise that Sony and Santa Monica Studio are committed to its future.
While the specific mythology that Kratos and Atreus will explore next remains a mystery, the confirmation of a new God of War game in development is cause for excitement among fans. However, it's likely that any revelations about the next chapter in the series are still years away.
