The "God of War" series has not been silent in 2025. Amazon officially announced that it will produce two live-action series. In addition to the rumors about the game's sequel, players have always maintained hot discussions.The series is progressing rapidly - producer Ronald D. Moore revealed that Amazon has booked two seasons directly, and the screenwriter team is making full progress.

In the game field, multiple projects may be conducted simultaneously.Industry insiders revealed that an independent project (non-remastered version) with the Greek era as the background and focusing on Kratos is under development. There are also reports that the project has been postponed internally until 2026.

Nowadays, new trends have emerged: a recruitment information for senior combat designers adds a solid impact to the rumors that they continue to ferment.The job ad was posted on Sony PlayStation's official recruitment page last Friday and is a contract-based position for senior combat designers who "design and realize enemy and boss roles."

The job description shows: "Appointees need to assist the chief combat designer and director as needed, collaborate on the entire process of character development from concept to implementation, and cooperate with animation, level design, character art, visual development, encounter design and other departments to ensure that the characters achieve coordinated and unified presentation in the game."

The job requirements for this position are particularly worthy of attention.Applicants must be able to “delve into the combat system, mechanism and enemy design of one or more third-person melee action RPGs”, which is highly consistent with Santa Monica Studio’s iconic third-person combat mode.

More directional is that the "Priority Experience" clause clearly mentions the two recent works in the series: "Canses who are proficient in combat design decisions, systems, mechanisms and enemy design are preferred."This clear benchmarking strongly implies that the team is reserving talents for the projects related to "God of War".

In the same priority, recruitment also requires "having two or more published 3A-level works full-cycle development experience", which means that the project will target high-quality large-scale productions.If the position is indeed related to "God of War", it implies that the new work may have a 3A-level scale.

Overall, although the recruitment information itself cannot directly confirm the existence of the new work, it does add credibility to the early rumors that "Santa Monica is developing a new God of War" game.Of course, rational expectations need to be maintained before Sony's official confirmation - especially considering that the derivative project has been said to have been postponed to 2026.

It is worth mentioning that a Bloomberg reporter once pointed out that the next key work of Santa Monica Studio is "not a science fiction theme, nor a brand new IP". This new work will bring a fresh experience while maintaining the foundation of the series.
