PlayStation’s latest State of Play had plenty of new announcements, but one much-anticipated game was nowhere to be found. Rumors ahead of the show pointed to remasters of the Greek God of War saga, and fans were left with nothing but disappointment when the event went live.
While not much has been said about these remasters since then, a reliable insider has finally broken the silence. It is now being said that an official announcement regarding these games is coming sometime next month.
Why it matters: Despite the popularity of the Norse God of War saga, Kratos’ earlier adventures remain limited to streaming on modern consoles. This has created a demand for remasters to make these games available to a wider audience.

This update comes from Jeff Grubb, who needs no introduction to those closely following gaming leaks. As per his latest scoop, the God of War remasters are real and will be announced soon.
On his BSKY profile, Jeff Grubb quoted a post highlighting artwork celebrating God of War’s 20th anniversary. For context, the original PS2 title debuted on March 22, 2005, leaving exactly one month until the series turns 20.
I think those God of War rumors jumped the gun a bit.

The most interesting part about Jeff Grubb’s statement is that he was the first to leak Days Gone Remastered. This project was officially revealed at PlayStation’s latest State of Play, adding further credibility to the insider’s leaks.
Following the BSKY post, excitement is high among series fans as they look forward to another outing in the Greek era of God of War. Whether all games will receive the remaster treatment remains to be seen, but fans won’t have to wait too long to find out.
