It is possible that you may have encountered the rumors of new God of War game or DLC in the past few months. Well, it seems like, after being put down by the developers a few months ago, God of War: Ragnarok expansion is happening after all. In the snap of our fingers, God of War: Ragnarok touched all our lives and left a huge hole in our hearts, much like Sindri himself. And now that the short lived Norse saga has been concluded, fans have been left asking what is next for the manliest God who ever walked Greece and Midgard. Today we have some incredible new information for the fans about the future of the franchise.
God of War: Ragnarok DLC To Be Announced At The Game Awards?
In this new age of gaming, it takes a lot of time and effort to stitch every single piece and make a smooth functioning game. This extends to not just game sequels but also their DLCs and expansions. For example, most recently Horizon Forbidden West’s expansion turned out to be even heavier than the main game and hence was a PS5 exclusive. These expansions are generally so vast that these days studios tend to make a standalone game out of them, just like Spider-Man: Miles Morales. And while fans consider them to be glorified DLC’s this seems to be the future of gaming. Well, one of these 2 things is the future of God of War: Ragnarok as well!
As per areajugones.sport.es, they have received a news that confirms that the God of War Ragnarök DLC is real and would be announced very soon. As per the website, the information comes from a reliable source. Apparently, their source did not comment on whether it will be announced via a trailer, a teaser or an appearance at a major video game event. However, it is highly likely that the expansion would be announced at The Game Awards 2023, as PS revealed a lot of information about GOW franchise at this event in the past. As you may know, The Game Awards 2023 will be held on December 7, where is PS studios is likely to bag a few awards for its latest hit Marvel’s Spider-Man 2.
Considering how many times we’ve heard about this expansion from various sources including the reliable leaker The Snitch, it is basically confirmed at this point. What would be it be about? While Kratos’ part in the main story seems to be over, Atreus still has a lot to do. Taking Atreus as the main character will give the creators of the game a huge opportunity to present a fresh perspective and story for the expansion. The entire Atreus and the giants arc needs a bit of closure and considering how they let us play as Atreus, an Atreus based seems like a great idea. Aside from Atreus’ mission to find more giants, the way Sindri’s story ended left a huge and painful hole in our hearts, so the DLC/half-sequel might touch upon that as well and give us some closure. Another thing which needs to be explored is the return of Tyr and the rebuilding of Asgard.
You might remember, a few months ago, Tyr’s voice actor While discussing Tyr’s role in Ragnarok, Ben Prendergast stated that Tyr wasn’t done yet. He said, “all I’ll say is this – it isn’t the last you’ve seen of Tyr.” Prendergast went on to say that he “knows a little, but doesn’t know much,” regarding the future of the God of War series at large. So, in case there is an Atreus half-sequel, you can be damn well sure we’ll see Tyr in that considering how he helped the giants and all. There have also been a few job listings posted by Santa Monica and its associate studios regarding the future of God of War series. From all this, we can derive that Snitch’s comments may not be far from truth and we might actually be getting an expansion for GOW: Ragnarok in 2024.
God of War: Ragnarok is available to play on Play Station 5 and Play Station 4. The DLC/Expansion/spin-off will most likely be a PS5 Exclusive.
