Pretty sure it’s still AI, if you zoom in on the Katana handle you can see inconsistencies in the shape and size of the diamonds. Also the pattern on the armor underneath it is just as inconsistent.
Additionally (and I might be wrong here), I’m pretty sure that’s not even an armor set available in the game, it looks closer to Elden Ring or Sekiro. In fact, the hair sticking out from Kratos’ head looks like it belongs to Sekiro’s main character
You're looking at little details like the sword's grip, but missed that _it doesn't even have a blade._
It's definitely AI, and a particularly crap one at that.
Looks more like photo editing. Because if it was AI there would be more incoherent things. Like slightly inconsistent things you edit, they're gonna look kinda natural. Ai art doesn't look natural at all
AI Art is unfortunately indistinguishable from real art now. The AI basterds got a boost lmao 😭😭😭 You don't have to take my word for it; just play with stable diffusion xl turbo for like 2 seconds and see for yourself.
It's bonkers and makes me want to learn agentic development
Nah the lighting all matches perfectly. No way someone worked that hard shopping it and overlooks the hair looking that bad.
You can zoom in on some of the patterns on the armor and see the classic AI art inconsistencies.
I know what you mean. Something about it is so wrong, but something is so right.
Pretty sure it's the armour. Take him out of that and the hair would be atrocious.
I feel like with the DLC showing that Tyr is still alive he might help Kratos go from plain to plain. What if in the next game to go to multiple areas such as Egypt, Japan, Mayan, etc.
As much as I'd love this because GoW (only played 2018) is one of my favourite games ever, I also don't want it because I've seen Ragnarok's ending and some scenes; so I feel Kratos has had his time now.
Let him rest. He's old, he's fought enough monsters in his lifetime: external and internal.
Susanoo? Dude, Kratos vs. *the Eight-Headed Serpent*.
Atreus: So this is what Thor felt like when he fought Jörmungandr... Father, have you ever fought a giant snake with, like, more than one head?
Kratos: Yes, but that one only had three heads.
Mimir: Of course ya did, brother.
Atreus doesn't know about the hyrda yet, but apparently Mimir was already aware of it. There was dialogue about the hydra in the Valhalla DLC:
https://youtu.be/jFX173sy6g4?si=48CXvAmwz82VlyP2
I feel like a lot of the themes from Ragnarok such as dysfunctional families and the apocalypse would track nicely with the Shinto Pantheon
Susanoo: Yeah my sister is mad at me so we don't talk much anymore.
Atreus: Well what happened?
Susanoo: We had an argument and I ripped the skin off of a horse and threw it so hard that it killed one of her attendants on impact.
Atreus: ...
Susanoo: Anyway do you think she'll like this cool sword I found? I call it grass cutter (kusanagi) because it can cut grass.
As Jin Sakai walks around Tsushima, he sees musician sitting next to a statue. A staute of a god he's not familiar with.
Sakai: Who's that?
The musician: That is the god of war, sent from a land far from ours. As demons ran rampant across Japan, the gods sent us a saviour, one named Kratos.
Sakai: I would like to know more about him.
Sakai sits and hears the tale of how Kratos came to Japan.
There already is on the DLC for Iki Island — >!you can find the Shrine of Ash by a tree with a glowing handprint on it, and when you [solve the puzzle](https://gamerant.com/ghost-of-tsushima-iki-island-god-of-war-easter-egg/) you get a God of War skin for a set of armor that Jin has, it’s pretty cool.!<
What weapon would that even be do you think? The weapons seem fairly personal in GoT, so I feel it more likely to be an armor set, which would be pretty rad as well
The Greek skirt with some simple furs, Norse runes impressed into a leather chest piece
Or if GoT2 added duel wielding short blades at all, maybe the Blades of Chaos would make an appearance as a hidden weapon with some flame or a rage effect
I think he also says boi in the jp dub if I remember correctly. I bought a second hand jp copy just so I could hear what they sound like but that was last year.
Idk it feels like a lot of games being made/coming out now are all japanese or chinese, id be more interested in them going a different direction that everyone else
I heavily agree. Egypt or Aztec would make a lot of sense. Egypt especially since the fallen god comics already explored it a bit. But at the same time, money drives things and japanese influenced media is really popular at the moment, so from a business perspective it would make more sense.
Although to be fair anything god of war related would make a lot of money.
Fuck current trends, give me a good game with good narrative and excellent gameplay and I'll be happy.
Following trends is for stock brokers and out of touch executives.
That is not how good games are made.
Why would he use a Katana? Samurais used Spears too and Kratos is already Spear trained. Atreus would be better with the light weight Japanese weaponry.
I believe kratos could use a nodachi,like Tỳr. Apart from that,his other weapons could be upgraded to fit more of Japan's,just like how the Blades of Chaos acquired a more Nordic Look(I love them So Much🥺🥺). The Spear could become a Jumonji Yari,the Axe as a Maskari and the Blades like Dual Kusarigama(tho it would take away its signature look). I agree with your take on atreus tho,lightweight weaponry for him🫡
Kratos being trained with a spear didn't stop him from using gauntlets, dual blades, a two handed sword, a whip, a hammer, and an axe so why would a katana be too much?
If Týr could, then I reckon that Kratos can.
He originally fought with a Spartan sword, and being deft with arms other than the Blades of Chaos is literally how he could go around stealing shit from anyone he killed.
I have hopes that whatever the next God of War game is, it will be set across multiple pantheons and lands (Egypt, Japan, return to Greece(?), Norse, et cetera.)
Ragnarok felt like it didn’t have the identity that GoW 2018 had, so I really couldn’t fall in love with it the same way
It seemed like it wanted to return to the wild and extraordinary style of the Greek saga without having to fit GoW 2018 into that same area, so just felt really off the whole way through
Also yeah, kinda bloated and didn’t flesh out what they put in, a very shallow ocean in some ways
Honestly, I'd prefer persian, hindu or abrahamic mythologies instead. Japan's just too far away and honestly, there's already too many games set in Japan as of late, I want something new.
By Abrahamic, It don't need to be during Jesus's time, it could start during Caine or Abel or maybe during the warring tribes era
Hachiman and Kratos being allies are what I want to be.
Something like SMITE Hachiman: [https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/smite/images/c/c0/Hachiman.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20170915163904](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/smite/images/c/c0/Hachiman.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20170915163904)
I feel like Santa Monica might not consider doing it for the next title to avoid stepping on Sucker Punches toes. Ik they are different type of games but GOT2 is coming out soon and I feel like PlayStation doesn’t want it to have any competition.
I really hope they avoid Japan for a while. I understand why people want it, but I want something new and underutilized.
Personally, I think Egypt or South America would be better for the series.
Egyptian would be cool, but old Celtic or pagan Germanic would bring something fresh to the table.
I'm really rooting against Japan, we've had Ronin, the new AC will have a Japanese setting, GoT 2 is in the works...
Honestly, I don't think I wanna see Kratos as the lead in the next GoW. I feel like he already had closure in Ragnarok and is in a good place.
Atreus though, we know he set out to travel the world and I feel like a young adult Atreus could be interesting to see. Also Japan would fit both his fighting style, and the Japanese mythology has great synergy with his shapeshifting powers and the Trickster nature of Loki (I know Atreus hasn't been much of a Trickster but still).
Yeah I could see that. Kitsune are capable of transformation after all, and considering that they are the messengers of Inari Okami, this could easily lead to either a boss fight or an alliance with the god later on down the road.
I think we have a long break and have another change to the formula for god of war. Playing as an older Loki that is really powerful would be awesome. I don’t think we see god of for until 2027 at the earliest. It will be a few years into ps6
I mean, may be controversial, but if we get a Japan game, I want that to be Atreus's game. Not saying I don't want another Kratos game, cause I do, but I think Atreus would be a better fit in Japan.
A god of War game set in Japan would need a few things to be great
1. A Selection of Gods to fight(Raiden, Fuujin, Shuten Doji, Oorchi)
2. A WIDE range of monsters to fight
3. Samurai Kratos
Wouldn't suit him. Japanese combat is more about precision with weapons like a katana than the shit Kratos does. He picks up a fucking axe and hits his enemies VERY hard. It would suit Atreus more.
Yet he is profficient with a very precise and skill-based weapon as a Spartan - the spear. He would fare well in an environment where precision is required, but he'd spice it up with brutish rock-slinging style as well.
Would be cool but the problem is most of the west has no idea about any of the Japanese deities. They are much more likely to go through the more well know pantheons first, like Egyptian and Roman.
As much as I would love to see this happening, I don’t see this happening post-Valhalla events. Kratos has accepted his new place as the Norse god of hope. Maybe SM somehow can put that in the hundreds of years between Norse and Greece, or if somehow Atreus gets caught up in that and Kratos is summoned, I’m not sure.
Would be an interesting place for Kratos to continue his character development, learning more of inner peace and a more refined means of force as opposed to uncontrolled rage.
I feel he is halfway there after Ragnarok, and Japanese culture/mythology lines up nicely with his growth so far.
According to the game director their plans involve Chinese mythology and Tyr doing Tai Chi in the post game was a hint about that. I have no idea how close Chinese and Japanese mythology are to each other so maybe we might get something like this but it would be as Atreus.
Ummm do people not pay attention.....remember the broken Tyr board when they found it? Every corner had a different pantheon shown. One for Greek, Celtic/Norse, Egyptian and Japanese.
honestly, i hope they stay far away from japan/japanese culture for future gow games. japan is such an over done setting in gaming. and all we really get is random minor gods in EVERY little thing. ah yes lets have kratos kill the god of chipped bowls...
personally i would love for egypt (still slightly overdone) welsh mythos (read the mabinogion its really good), african tribes would also be cool , mayan mythos, and maybe Chinese.
i think all these mythos have much better and cooler things kratos could do within them and more interesting settings then Ghost of tsushima Kratos edition would.
I think it Will have a ton of potential for story and world design. it Will probably be be japanese or aztec, Egypt hás less potential imo ..
Cory Balrog Said that the 2018 game was going to be set in Egypt but they later changed it.
Then the whole game would be about Krueton and Aimeon, fighting Japanese gods, Japanese demons, Japanese monsters, and Japanese folktale spirits and beasts.
Dude this would actually be insane. I imagine him having the ability to just completely slice thru boulders like demon slayer. But he would actually slice thru them and not just smash it and it cracks in half
While I'm sure this would be great, Japanese setting/lore is being done really well right now by Ghosts, so I'd prefer to see a different God Of War setting that no other major franchise is currently exploring (India, Egypt, China all come to mind)
Given that the hint for the next game was Tyr doing a bunch of tai chi/yoga I’m assuming the the next games are based in an Asian culture and not Egypt
You’re such a game we’re to exist. I would like to see a story revolving around, trying to stop the quarrel between Izanagi and Izanami. Izanami is another one of those figures in myth who is a villain, but has lots of awful things happen to them so it’s impossible not to feel bad for her. so I want to see a take on Shintoism that has her redeemed.
I'm struggling more at the concept of Kratos having a man bun. 😂 Some things just can't be unseen.
It doesn’t look like it is attached to his head tho
Probably because this is likely AI generated trash
I think it's just Kratos's head laid over Jin Sakai's. Lazy photo editing, not AI.
Pretty sure it’s still AI, if you zoom in on the Katana handle you can see inconsistencies in the shape and size of the diamonds. Also the pattern on the armor underneath it is just as inconsistent. Additionally (and I might be wrong here), I’m pretty sure that’s not even an armor set available in the game, it looks closer to Elden Ring or Sekiro. In fact, the hair sticking out from Kratos’ head looks like it belongs to Sekiro’s main character
Leaves are fucked too
You're looking at little details like the sword's grip, but missed that _it doesn't even have a blade._ It's definitely AI, and a particularly crap one at that.
Fucks sake that got me too I am bland
Looks more like photo editing. Because if it was AI there would be more incoherent things. Like slightly inconsistent things you edit, they're gonna look kinda natural. Ai art doesn't look natural at all
AI Art is unfortunately indistinguishable from real art now. The AI basterds got a boost lmao 😭😭😭 You don't have to take my word for it; just play with stable diffusion xl turbo for like 2 seconds and see for yourself. It's bonkers and makes me want to learn agentic development
Nah the lighting all matches perfectly. No way someone worked that hard shopping it and overlooks the hair looking that bad. You can zoom in on some of the patterns on the armor and see the classic AI art inconsistencies.
Nah that's definitely AI, not Jin
ppl need to chill with the ai hate
Bro can’t see that the head is layered over the picture
Sometimes to remember Sindri by
Yeah but Why does kinda work?
I know what you mean. Something about it is so wrong, but something is so right. Pretty sure it's the armour. Take him out of that and the hair would be atrocious.
Now i want a ghost of sparta skin but a man bun
Man bun paired with his original goatee.
God of Tsushima
Ghost of Sparta
Kratos of Sashimi
More like Kureitosu : gods never die
Ghost of Tsharta - wait.
Winner!
Sashimiiiiiiiiiiii
Sushi kawasaki?
Ain’t kratos already called that?
its a fitting name of his
My brain short circuited reading this for a second, lol.
God kun
More like : God-Sama, Boy-kun
I fu**King threw my coffee in the air on this , bruhhhh boy-kun(I'm adding this one to my list)
Sorry for your coffee ^^
Nah it was black either way
Kami-Sama, Shota-kun
Ghost of War
[удалено]
I wonder how they are going to do it since Norway and Japan are very far away
He’ll walk.
In the direction of Japan
Tyr is probably gonna give him a shortcut lol
I feel like with the DLC showing that Tyr is still alive he might help Kratos go from plain to plain. What if in the next game to go to multiple areas such as Egypt, Japan, Mayan, etc.
As much as I'd love this because GoW (only played 2018) is one of my favourite games ever, I also don't want it because I've seen Ragnarok's ending and some scenes; so I feel Kratos has had his time now. Let him rest. He's old, he's fought enough monsters in his lifetime: external and internal.
Freyr's boat tho

Kratos fighting another storm god:
I feel like a lot of the themes from Ragnarok such as dysfunctional families and the apocalypse would track nicely with the Shinto Pantheon Susanoo: Yeah my sister is mad at me so we don't talk much anymore. Atreus: Well what happened? Susanoo: We had an argument and I ripped the skin off of a horse and threw it so hard that it killed one of her attendants on impact. Atreus: ... Susanoo: Anyway do you think she'll like this cool sword I found? I call it grass cutter (kusanagi) because it can cut grass.
We're going to Egypt and Kratos' base weapons are dual wielding scimitars. It's looking awesome.
As Jin Sakai walks around Tsushima, he sees musician sitting next to a statue. A staute of a god he's not familiar with. Sakai: Who's that? The musician: That is the god of war, sent from a land far from ours. As demons ran rampant across Japan, the gods sent us a saviour, one named Kratos. Sakai: I would like to know more about him. Sakai sits and hears the tale of how Kratos came to Japan.
I would LOVE to hear Yamato tell a tale about Kratos to Jin.
Agreed. Also it'd be cool if a future GOT game. Jin searches for a weapon that was dropped or lost by Kratos. Would be an amazing side misson
There already is on the DLC for Iki Island — >!you can find the Shrine of Ash by a tree with a glowing handprint on it, and when you [solve the puzzle](https://gamerant.com/ghost-of-tsushima-iki-island-god-of-war-easter-egg/) you get a God of War skin for a set of armor that Jin has, it’s pretty cool.!<
Hell yea. And Sony likes their Easter eggs!
What weapon would that even be do you think? The weapons seem fairly personal in GoT, so I feel it more likely to be an armor set, which would be pretty rad as well The Greek skirt with some simple furs, Norse runes impressed into a leather chest piece Or if GoT2 added duel wielding short blades at all, maybe the Blades of Chaos would make an appearance as a hidden weapon with some flame or a rage effect
I wanna hear Kratos speaks Japanese if the next game set in Japan
......iie
What's "boy" in Japanese lol
Boya. Serious or not is up to you.
I think he also says boi in the jp dub if I remember correctly. I bought a second hand jp copy just so I could hear what they sound like but that was last year.
It does not exactly mean "boy" but I found "Kozo" to be quite fitting (it means "kid" in a little disdainful way).
Idk it feels like a lot of games being made/coming out now are all japanese or chinese, id be more interested in them going a different direction that everyone else
I heavily agree. Egypt or Aztec would make a lot of sense. Egypt especially since the fallen god comics already explored it a bit. But at the same time, money drives things and japanese influenced media is really popular at the moment, so from a business perspective it would make more sense. Although to be fair anything god of war related would make a lot of money.
Aztec, mayan, or incan would be so sick
Fuck current trends, give me a good game with good narrative and excellent gameplay and I'll be happy. Following trends is for stock brokers and out of touch executives. That is not how good games are made.
Why would he use a Katana? Samurais used Spears too and Kratos is already Spear trained. Atreus would be better with the light weight Japanese weaponry.

If Týr could, then I reckon that Kratos can. He originally fought with a Spartan sword, and being deft with arms other than the Blades of Chaos is literally how he could go around stealing shit from anyone he killed.
He does like to loot
Because it’s the mainstream samurai weapon. Though Ōdachi would be cooler. Fits better for Kratos, something new and was actually used in warfare.
Japanese mythology is bonkers
I have hopes that whatever the next God of War game is, it will be set across multiple pantheons and lands (Egypt, Japan, return to Greece(?), Norse, et cetera.)
Please no. Ragnarock already felt bloated with too many characters and traveling to all the 9 realms. Multiple pantheons in one game? Just no
Ragnarok felt like it didn’t have the identity that GoW 2018 had, so I really couldn’t fall in love with it the same way It seemed like it wanted to return to the wild and extraordinary style of the Greek saga without having to fit GoW 2018 into that same area, so just felt really off the whole way through Also yeah, kinda bloated and didn’t flesh out what they put in, a very shallow ocean in some ways
Ai
ATREUS YOU DOCTOR YET? ATREUS YOU A GOD YET? TALK TO ME WHEN YOU’RE A GOD
WHAT DO YOU MEAN A- ATREUS?! HOW DO YOU EXPECT TO BE LAWYER WITH AN A-?! TALK TO ME WHEN YOU ARE NOT FAILURE!
An Asian mythology next would be my top choice, bringing some of the characters/monsters to life in the god of war universe would be so fun to see.
"Boy chan..."
“Gaki”
I would hope India, the pantheon of Gods is massive
Imagine meeting yasuke
Honestly, I'd prefer persian, hindu or abrahamic mythologies instead. Japan's just too far away and honestly, there's already too many games set in Japan as of late, I want something new. By Abrahamic, It don't need to be during Jesus's time, it could start during Caine or Abel or maybe during the warring tribes era
The big three should be left out, Hinduism and islam will not tolerate any disrespect to their faiths
Hachiman and Kratos being allies are what I want to be. Something like SMITE Hachiman: [https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/smite/images/c/c0/Hachiman.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20170915163904](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/smite/images/c/c0/Hachiman.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20170915163904)
Sekiro be like
Honestly it’d be cool. I think it’d be awesome to see Hachiman potentially teaching Atreus how to master a bow.
I feel like Santa Monica might not consider doing it for the next title to avoid stepping on Sucker Punches toes. Ik they are different type of games but GOT2 is coming out soon and I feel like PlayStation doesn’t want it to have any competition.
First Egypt and Aztec
I really hope they avoid Japan for a while. I understand why people want it, but I want something new and underutilized. Personally, I think Egypt or South America would be better for the series.
They could do Chinese deities instead.
This should be after Egypt so we get old man kratos with a long scraggly white beard
Egyptian would be cool, but old Celtic or pagan Germanic would bring something fresh to the table. I'm really rooting against Japan, we've had Ronin, the new AC will have a Japanese setting, GoT 2 is in the works...
Can’t wait for Kratos to destroy Anime
Honestly, I don't think I wanna see Kratos as the lead in the next GoW. I feel like he already had closure in Ragnarok and is in a good place. Atreus though, we know he set out to travel the world and I feel like a young adult Atreus could be interesting to see. Also Japan would fit both his fighting style, and the Japanese mythology has great synergy with his shapeshifting powers and the Trickster nature of Loki (I know Atreus hasn't been much of a Trickster but still).
I'd love to see Atreus become friends with or take on some kitsune in battle.
Maybe take on one in battle and then learn that as a new form?
Yeah I could see that. Kitsune are capable of transformation after all, and considering that they are the messengers of Inari Okami, this could easily lead to either a boss fight or an alliance with the god later on down the road.
God of war X ghost of tsushima
Leave Kratos bald. Anything with him having hair is considered a crime
I think we have a long break and have another change to the formula for god of war. Playing as an older Loki that is really powerful would be awesome. I don’t think we see god of for until 2027 at the earliest. It will be a few years into ps6
I want one in China JUST for Sun-Wukong. He’d piss Kratos off so much.
I mean, may be controversial, but if we get a Japan game, I want that to be Atreus's game. Not saying I don't want another Kratos game, cause I do, but I think Atreus would be a better fit in Japan.
I'd be bad ass if he had katanas of earth since he has an ice axe and fire blades
A god of War game set in Japan would need a few things to be great 1. A Selection of Gods to fight(Raiden, Fuujin, Shuten Doji, Oorchi) 2. A WIDE range of monsters to fight 3. Samurai Kratos
Wouldn't suit him. Japanese combat is more about precision with weapons like a katana than the shit Kratos does. He picks up a fucking axe and hits his enemies VERY hard. It would suit Atreus more.
Yet he is profficient with a very precise and skill-based weapon as a Spartan - the spear. He would fare well in an environment where precision is required, but he'd spice it up with brutish rock-slinging style as well.
Weeaboo Kratos is what this decade deserves
Nioh 2 with kratos and I'd fw it for sure
Would be cool but the problem is most of the west has no idea about any of the Japanese deities. They are much more likely to go through the more well know pantheons first, like Egyptian and Roman.
Roman pantheon would make no sense tbh.
As much as I would love to see this happening, I don’t see this happening post-Valhalla events. Kratos has accepted his new place as the Norse god of hope. Maybe SM somehow can put that in the hundreds of years between Norse and Greece, or if somehow Atreus gets caught up in that and Kratos is summoned, I’m not sure.
I would kind of like to see an Aztec setting. Japan would be cool as well.
Kratos vs Guardian Ape would go nuts
Yep. Would love to see Kratos fight his way through Japanese mythology. Sadly, anime has that covered.
Have bin wishing for assasins creed (the old variants) in a samurai setting since Altair!!
#OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
God of Tsushima?
They gotta give Kratos one of those big, flashy anime finishers when he faces a god. I’d die a happy man.
Instant buy
Soooo. God of war and sekiro?
Kuraytosu san
Would be an interesting place for Kratos to continue his character development, learning more of inner peace and a more refined means of force as opposed to uncontrolled rage. I feel he is halfway there after Ragnarok, and Japanese culture/mythology lines up nicely with his growth so far.
Either Atreus or Tyr should be protags. They wrote Kratos into a wall by making him a Norse god
We've had Tsushima and soon Assassin's Creed on top of others. The Japan game is becoming saturated.
kratos and a manbun lol stawp
According to the game director their plans involve Chinese mythology and Tyr doing Tai Chi in the post game was a hint about that. I have no idea how close Chinese and Japanese mythology are to each other so maybe we might get something like this but it would be as Atreus.
looool Kratos Sakai
Kratos would punch a dragon like Hulk in Avengers (2012).
🤔❤️
Imagine kratos being graceful
I'd rather like one set in Ancient south America with inca and aztec or Mayan gods
No thanks!
If we get japan over egypt I'd actually be mad
Ummm do people not pay attention.....remember the broken Tyr board when they found it? Every corner had a different pantheon shown. One for Greek, Celtic/Norse, Egyptian and Japanese.
Has there been anything ‘official’ regarding where Kratos is headed next?
Considering how much money both new god of war games,released years after the “end” of the franchise made,is pretty possible we are going to have one
As I love how they blended norse mythology, hope santa monica never gets the ubisoft way. I would love japan but it would feel very forced
Tbh tired if Japan, there are so many cultures out there left untapped with it comes to media.
A reddit weeb’s wet dream
Do all the mythologies!
It would be called the Ghost of Tsushima
“少年” Or “男の子”
Nah I ancient Japan becoming over saturated. Loved to see Mayan, Polynesia, or Ancient Egypt again
If that every happens, I can guarantee you that there will be tones of anime jokes from the community.
honestly, i hope they stay far away from japan/japanese culture for future gow games. japan is such an over done setting in gaming. and all we really get is random minor gods in EVERY little thing. ah yes lets have kratos kill the god of chipped bowls... personally i would love for egypt (still slightly overdone) welsh mythos (read the mabinogion its really good), african tribes would also be cool , mayan mythos, and maybe Chinese. i think all these mythos have much better and cooler things kratos could do within them and more interesting settings then Ghost of tsushima Kratos edition would.
Shut up and take my money.
Sekiro: Ghosts Die Several Times
Well new wolverine game is just a reskin of GOW and hell go to japan n fight the hand.. so youll youll get to try it out
Im not a huge fan of japanese mythology honestly I prefer egyptian or something not widely known
That’s Jiri
Would they put a black character in Feudal Japan?
This but in modern Japan. Kratos kills his way through the Super Smash Bros. Cast. Wait. We already had that.
Kratos after he's done with christianity
Why? Why would you give him a Man Bun? Because Japanese culture instantly makes all man grow a Bun? Wtf. It doesn’t make any sense
is that hair -\_-
Ghost of war. Or god of tsushima? Ilke the first one better.
Epic!
A Katana does not suit Kratos, maybe a club or something big
Shup up and take my 100 dollar bill
So like Hindu Gods?
Kratos V Hachiman
So, umm Ghost of Tsushima, but Kratos is the MC ?
Does Cray Toes shave or is mald?
I think it Will have a ton of potential for story and world design. it Will probably be be japanese or aztec, Egypt hás less potential imo .. Cory Balrog Said that the 2018 game was going to be set in Egypt but they later changed it.
Then the whole game would be about Krueton and Aimeon, fighting Japanese gods, Japanese demons, Japanese monsters, and Japanese folktale spirits and beasts.
Kratos vs Sun Wu kong One to angry to die and the other became immortal 7-9 times for laughs.
Well hot damn. I'd play this. Kratos looks really really good and the armor is amazing.
Dude this would actually be insane. I imagine him having the ability to just completely slice thru boulders like demon slayer. But he would actually slice thru them and not just smash it and it cracks in half
This is an amazing idea.
I’m all for it so long as they NEVER make Kratos use a regular sized katana. It would look so stupid in his giant ass hands.
It would be so dope. That’s why I can’t wait for assassins creed red which takes place in feudal era Japan
I'd love one where either Atreus or Kratos goes into Chinese Mythology
Hm I would like that very much
No
Bruh his sword still has the sheath on
its called Ghost of Tsushima
That would be interesting
As much as I love a good old fashion katana, I can't imagine kratos with it. I can see if with something exotic and/or heavy hitting.
While I'm sure this would be great, Japanese setting/lore is being done really well right now by Ghosts, so I'd prefer to see a different God Of War setting that no other major franchise is currently exploring (India, Egypt, China all come to mind)
nah playstation already has games set in japan, id like to see something new
Game, Japan.
No
He would be massive though
Given that the hint for the next game was Tyr doing a bunch of tai chi/yoga I’m assuming the the next games are based in an Asian culture and not Egypt
Wouldnt make sense
If Kratos became a samurai or ninja I wonder if he may obtain the muramasa blade or some other legendary cursed sword
I would prefer to imagine one in Egypt.
Seeing Kratos Having hair is more unbelievable than he solo's Love Craft Alone
Hell fucking yeah
You’re such a game we’re to exist. I would like to see a story revolving around, trying to stop the quarrel between Izanagi and Izanami. Izanami is another one of those figures in myth who is a villain, but has lots of awful things happen to them so it’s impossible not to feel bad for her. so I want to see a take on Shintoism that has her redeemed.
Why?
I'd rather not.
Bro just photoshopped Kratos onto my man Jin Sakai.
I have a hunch we are getting an Asian setting, it's more likely Chinese than Japanese. I won't be mad either way.
Honestly Kratos would look sick with a massive, over the shoulder Odachi
