Next God of War to Feature an ‘Egyptian Sword’ for Kratos

The God of War series is a fan-favorite, with God of War Ragnarök being one of its best titles yet. Now, recent rumors suggest that Sony Santa Monica has already begun work on the next mainline installment. A new leak claims the next title will feature a new main weapon for Kratos: an ‘Egyptian Sword’.

This rumor comes from noted industry insider Tom Henderson during a recent Insider Gaming livestream. Given that many of Tom Henderson’s past leaks have proven accurate, there’s a strong possibility that Kratos will be wielding a new blade in the next major title

During the podcast, Henderson claims that Kratos will defeat enemies and bosses using an ‘Egyptian Sword,’ strongly indicating a shift from Norse to Egyptian mythology—a setting long desired by fans. Henderson reportedly shared these details around the 34-minute mark of the podcast.

Other Rumors and Evidence

Adding to the speculation, Sony Santa Monica has posted job listings seeking individuals with knowledge of the existing combat system, further hinting that a new game is in the works.

Separately, there are rumors of a smaller, “Metroidvania-style” side project set in the Greek era of the series. While there’s excitement for both potential games, it is speculated that an official announcement for the Greek-era game might come before any major reveals about the next mainline title. Fans are eagerly anticipating the possibility of Kratos facing off against iconic Egyptian gods like Anubis and Osiris.

While both the Egyptian setting and a Greek-era side game remain unconfirmed, the information from a reliable source like Tom Henderson gives fans plenty to be excited about. For now, we must wait for an official word from Sony Santa Monica.
