GOD OF WAR: EGYPT (2025) – When Gods Collide, Legends Are Reborn

In the land of sun and sand, a god’s past burns brighter than the desert itself

In God of War: Egypt (2025), the saga of Kratos continues beyond the Norse realms and into the scorching sands of ancient Egypt. The once-Spartan warrior, haunted by the ghosts of his past and the gods he’s slain, finds himself pulled into a new pantheon where power, vengeance, and divine chaos rule the land. With the death of Odin behind him, Kratos seeks peace—but the gods of Egypt have other plans.

This chapter introduces a thrilling new mythology, one filled with sun gods, jackal-headed judges, and serpent-bodied chaos lords. From the bustling streets of Thebes to the hidden tombs beneath Luxor, the game reinvents iconic Egyptian legends in the brutal, cinematic style fans have come to expect. Kratos, now accompanied by a mysterious young girl rumored to be connected to Isis, must navigate political intrigues among the gods, while protecting a secret that could reshape the balance of all pantheons.

Visually, God of War: Egypt is a feast of golden dunes, shifting pyramids, and shadowy underworlds. The art direction embraces the mysticism and grandeur of Egypt, contrasting blinding desert light with the eerie depths of the afterlife. From battling Anubis’s shadow warriors to confronting Set himself in a sandstorm-ridden climax, each encounter is as poetic as it is punishing.

Combat has evolved as well—introducing a dynamic dual-weapon system inspired by ancient Egyptian martial arts and divine relics. The Leviathan Axe has been replaced with twin khopesh blades infused with solar and lunar magic. Atreus, now more grown and wiser, draws upon hieroglyphic runes and ancient chants in combat and puzzle-solving.

More than just another entry in the franchise, God of War: Egypt is a reflection of Kratos’s ongoing transformation—from a rage-fueled god-slayer to a father, teacher, and reluctant symbol of destiny. As the line between hero and destroyer blurs, players are left questioning what it truly means to be divine… and whether Kratos can escape the cycle of bloodshed he once created.
