God of Waris one of the strongest first-party franchises that operates under the PlayStation Studios banner and the gaming community is eager to see where the franchise will go next. The Norse Saga introduced several new characters that could explore other exciting stories to expand the franchise even further.
The franchise can thrive without Kratos being the main character and the developers can always look at the source material and craft unique stories set within the Nine Realms. The God of Thunder had a tragic upbringing and his past could be the perfect story for a smaller spinoff game.

Santa Monica Studiosspent the past few years working on the franchise and crafted one of the best character arcs in gaming history. The Norse Saga may have ended after the events ofRagnarokand the Nine Realms are now free from the clutches of Odin and the Aesir Gods, however, it doesn’t mean that there are no more stories to tell.
The gaming community believes that there is potential for the developers to createmoreGod of Wargamesset within the Norse Saga. In a now-deleted Reddit post, one user asked the question on everyone’s lips regarding which character should be the focus of a spinoff project, and chief among them was the God of Thunder.
The developers could apply a similar strategy used byThe Boysanddevelop smaller spinoff projectsbefore the final season.

Thor has a knack for theatricsand added a gimmick where he would snap his fingers whenever he calls for his hammer and kills his enemy or does his father’s bidding. Perhaps a spinoff project set in his early days will explain his weird antics.
Some fans would prefer to see the God of Thunder in a short DLC instead of a full game withAtreus as the lead character. The developers should consider all their options and the different possibilities of expanding the franchise without relying on Kratos before his next journey and wherever it may take him.

Sif mentioned there was a time when Thor and his family were happy with Magni and Modi until they were enlisted as Odin’s personal foot soldiers. Pain hardened the God of Thunder and drowning under the bottle, fans were fascinated by his pain and wanted to see more until his untimely demise.
