    It seems all those rumors about Kratos’ next adventure including online cooperative player, possibly with Deimos, turned out to be false… at least, for now. The game’s director Todd Papy, stated via Twitter that they will discuss the events following God of War III “soon”.

    We will talk about that soon. You’ll just need to have some patience with us

    Probably the most exciting news regarding the next God of War title is the reveal of a release time frame. As you can see in the bullet-pointed details above, God of War: Ascension will be available for purchase in Spring of 2013. While it’s too early to speculate whether or not it will stick to this release window, it does seem likely given GoW III’s March 2010 release date.

    A live feed of Ascension will be up on the internet on April 30th. Be sure to check back then to see what Kratos’ more personal journey has in store.
