Kratos Actor Chris Judge Is Seemingly Teasing Multiple God of War Announcements
Just allegedly not "our" God of War
by Khayl Adam · Push SquareDespite God of War Ragnarok's 2022 release and subsequent Valhalla DLC arriving in December 2023, it still seems too soon to hear about what the future holds for Kratos and Atreus. Kratos actor Chris Judge has seemingly teased several imminent reveals in a recent TikTok livestream before later clarifying, and walking things back on X.
The stream has caused something of a stir on the GamingLeaksAndRumours subreddit, largely due to Judges' repeated use of Kratos' iconic catchphrase, "Boy". Spotted by TheGamer, the full, relevant quote was reported: "The next two weeks are going to be chock-full of announcements and all kinds of good stuff. Thank you so much for joining us, and we will talk to you soon, boy."
Now, fan speculation is leaning towards at least one of these announcements being related to the impending Secret Level anthology series; we know that Kratos is in it, but Judge has not been confirmed in the role. It could be something as simple as that, a dedicated trailer, or something else entirely. Judge himself has pushed back on this reporting (below). He does, however, use the plural "announcements" and claims that whatever these reveals end up being, they have nothing to do with "our" (Sony Santa Monica's) God of War series.

Probably a TV show that’ll end up being rubbish. They’ll either inexplicably start at the Viking games or it’ll be a whole season of pre-Ghost of Sparta for him to ‘earn’ the ashen skin.

Lego God of War, of course.
Officially on Switch and semi-officially on Xbox as a PS5 is now an Xbox according to Xbox’s marketing. It’s not OUR GoW, Lego GoW is everyone’s.
"Keep your expectations low, Boy..." you all know the rest by now
A remastered collection with all the GOW up to Ascension sounds lovely! what wouldn't be lovely is a crappy show or a crappy Lego 🙁

@nessisonett Amazon is making it aren't they? If Fallout is any indication to by then it could be good.
As for time period i actually think starting at the Norse end with flashbacks to the Greek era is the best way to go. The Greek side would be too expensive to get right for a TV show and the Kratos of that era is just very unlikeable and lacks the depth of his older self. Having a whole show based on that Kratos wouldn't be good especially as the show couldn't just make it an action fest with large scale battles like the games can.
@Juanalf I mean, he said it isn't going to be "our" gow, it would be surprising if it was gonna be anything to do with older games after saying that. Seeing as how almost all the games were made by the same dev team.
But it is only 'our' God Of War that matters!

When will these voice actors learn you can't make cryptic tweets and not expect the gaming community to run with it.

Atreus spinoff announcement fits the bill...
It could also be a trip to the Nordic past, about Tyr and his travels to all of the 9 realms...
Or may be about a different area and pantheon... Persia, Egypt, Maya etc...
Or just about the OG trilogy remasters - in which Kratos was much different.
All in all it seems the "nordic" Kratos gets left behind for future new games.
@Shinnok789 “Atreus spinoff”
please no . i think it would be cool if they introduced a new main character thats a demigod & son of zeus like kratos & wants to kill kratos . i know that doesn’t really sound good , but its better than anything to do with the boy 💀
