Great news for God of War fans! The God of War TV Series is been confirmed by Amazon. Learn more details about it below.
According to Amazon, Prime Video will soon receive a live-action series based on the extremely popular PlayStation title. The action-adventure game series known as God of War was created by Santa Monica Studio and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment. The games in the series are renowned for their difficult gameplay and epic storylines, which are set in a realm of fantasy that draws on Norse mythology.
Both gamers and critics have praised the series, and it has sold millions of copies worldwide. Due to the success of the God of War series, various spin-off games have been created, including the mobile game God of War: Betrayal and the card game God of War: The Card Game. Numerous books and comics have also been written and drawn around the series.
A premiere date has yet to be announced, but the game will be available in over 240 countries worldwide.
Kratos, the God of War, will leave ancient Greece for the Norse realm of Midgard to live out the remainder of his days. After his wife’s death, Kratos sets out with his estranged son, Atreus, on a treacherous expedition to spread her ashes on the highest peak, fulfilling her dying wish. The new “God of War” series is likely to be a huge hit for Amazon, as Kratos is forced to fight all kinds of new Gods and monsters while his bond with his son is tested.
“God of War: Ragnarök,” the sequel to “God of War,” was released to the public last month and caused a rush among gamers to purchase copies. According to PlayStation, “God of War: Ragnarök” broke the record for the fastest-selling first-party launch game in PlayStation history. It sold 5.1 million copies in its first week alone, breaking the record.
Amazon’s latest live-action series joins many other video game adaptations, such as HBO’s upcoming series, “The Last of Us,” Paramount+’s “Halo” and various Netflix series like “Arcane,” “Resident Evil” and “Witcher,” among others.
“With its expansive and immersive worlds and rich storytelling, God of War is one of the most compelling franchises Amazon Studio has ever developed,” said Vernon Sanders, Amazon Studio’s head of global television.
“A statement from Katherine Pope, president of Sony Pictures Television Studios, said, “We are thrilled to be partnering with Amazon Studios and PlayStation Productions to adapt this beautiful and heartbreaking game into a premium live-action series.” A series based on the ancient mythology of Kratos is being crafted by Rape, Mark, and Hawk.
