Santa Monica Studio may not be releasing "God of War 4" next year. Recent reports suggest that the developer is now looking towards launching the highly anticipated installment sometime 2018. The team is allegedly lacking in experts.
The latest buzz surrounding the "God of War 4" release suggests that Santa Monica will not push the title's launch to a later date. It was initially announced that the game will come next year but recent issues while developing the game are said to have led the developer to push the release date another year later.
It is further speculated that the biggest problem behind the "God of War 4" release date delay is due to the lack of experts working on the team. Santa Monica still has some job posts up on its official website. It is believed that the vacant spots should suffice for the lack of people working on "God of War 4."
However, it appears that Santa Monica is still looking for more people to join the development team. The job posts are still open for those who may be interested in helping the team as they hope to release "God of War 4" in 2017.
While this is bad news for those who have been waiting for the "God of War 4" release, it is said that Kratos will be visiting the Nine Realms in the game's plot. It is said that the sequel will be featuring Norse mythology and will see Kratos lurking around the title.
It is further expected that Kratos' wife will play a major role in the upcoming "God of War 4" story. Not much is known about Kratos' wife at this point but fans are expecting to get all the details once "God of War 4" arrives.
Meanwhile, experts believe that for Santa Monica to retain the excitement of fans for the upcoming "God of War 4" release, teasers and updates on development should be given. Unfortunately, the developer may not have any updates to give at this time.
"God of War 4" is now rumored to land in the gaming universe sometime 2018. Stay tuned for more details on the highly anticipated title's launch.
