Next God of War Revealed as God of War: Ascension

God of War IV, no more! After around a week of rumors and speculation, the next God of War has been revealed. Thanks to several sources, God of War: Ascension information has been leaked online including the teaser trailer and the unofficial box art.

From the sound of the trailer, the game will most likely be a prequel of sorts. In the trailer Gaia says: “A time when in spite of the madness that plagued him, Kratos would break his blood oath to an unjust God. A time when he will no longer be bound in blood.”

We believe that the game could take place before the first game, back when Kratos led the Spartan army.

Amazon.com revealed the game’s first bit of plot info and the teaser art. In the listing it says: “Join Kratos as he seeks freedom, redemption, and the clarity to avenge his family in the most ambitious God of War adventure in the series so far.”

More on Ascension when it’s revealed.
