In a special message for God of War 2018's fourth anniversary, Cory Barlog informed fans that God of War: Ragnarök still isn't ready to enter the spotlight. God of War 2018 marked a soft-reboot for the long-running PlayStation franchise when it hit store shelves on this day — April 20 — four years ago. Having killed off the Greek pantheon in a rage, Kratos eventually found himself in Scandinavia living somewhat of a quieter life with a wife and son.
The brand's most recent entry, then, saw Kratos battling larger-than-life beings from Norse mythology. And the little that's been shown of God of War: Ragnarok makes it clear his days of duking it out with the Gods won't soon come to an end. At the very least, Kratos and his son, Atreus, may find themselves on the receiving end of Thor's iconic hammer, Mjölnir. But there still exists no word on when exactly players can expect to return to God of War's Norse saga.

In honor of God of War 2018's fourth anniversary, Santa Monica Studio posted a video message from Creative Director Cory Barlog. The developer thanks fans for the ongoing support, then transitions into briefly discussing God of War: Ragnarok — "the elephant in the room." Barlog, who isn't directing the new title, noted the team remains hard at work on the project, and while he'd love nothing more than to share firm details, "it's just not ready to be shown." When that time will come presently remains a mystery. Check out the full video message in the tweet linked below, courtesy of Santa Monica Studio.
