God Of War Ragnarok is the last game in the franchise which will have Norse mythology in it, but there will be more to come in the future, set in a different setting. People enjoyed this series a lot with characters like Odin and Thor. But as God of War following Greek mythology had three installments, the fans wonder if there will be a sequel to God of War Ragnarök.


Is God of War Ragnarök the final game?


No. In an interview with the Director of Ragnarök, Eric Williams, and Sony Santa Monica creative director, Cory Barlog, they stated that this game will be the last one to have Norse mythology in the lore. They are shifting from Norse mythology to present players with a new location, storyline and enemies to fight, because playing in the same repetitive setting can be boring.


What happens in God of War Ragnarök?


Released on November 9, 2022, for PS4 and PS5, God of War Ragnarok is an action-adventure game developed by Santa Monica Studio and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment.

God of War Ragnarök is the ninth installment in the God of War franchise and sequel of God of War 2018. This takes place three years after the prequel where Kratos and his son Atreus prepare themselves to face formidable enemies that await them, which includes Baldur’s mother, Freya, half-brother Thor, his father Odin, and a few others.


Will Kratos live to see the light of another sequel?


Kratos overcomes some formidable enemies (whom we are not going to name, spoiler-free!) with the help of Freya, Freyr, and his son, Atreus. This gives us an idea that Kratos is well and alive. After all the speculations and fan theories, they would probably have Kratos as the main protagonist if there are any sequels.


Will there be a sequel to God of War Ragnarök?


There has been much silence from Sony Santa Monica regarding any sequel to God of War Ragnarok. And by the turn of events in the game, it is only logical to assume the game ends here. Excluding any spoilers and analyzing the new game still leaves us with a slight possibility of a sequel. And as we know, it wouldn't take place in Norse Mythology anymore; fans have been coming up with mind-blowing hypotheses. Since the God of War franchise already traced Greek and Norse mythology, setting the game in a new mythos is plausible.
