According to the resume of composer Timothy Williams, the God of War series will continue with God of War IV, and he's supplying the tunes. The game was spotted on Williams' listed projects, and a whirlwind of giddy speculation has swept cleanly through the Internet since.
This isn't the first bit of God of War IV news we've seen. Almost exactly two years ago, the game was mentioned, and more recently PSM3 claimed it would arrive this year, with co-op included.
All signs point toward this game being real, but that's hardly surprising considering how popular Kratos' violent exploits are. Expect this new dribble to become an outpouring in the run up to E3.

God of War 4: Kratos Fights A Therapist
...just thought that seemed more fitting.
Cause you know every fucking thing has to rise from something.
Get your own damn title! Something like, "God of War 4: Kratos Is A Homosexual OMG It Makes So Much Sense!!!"
No it should be
God of War 4: ReUprising
Regardless, I'm curious. I figured they sowed things up pretty well at the end of the last game. It would be kind of nice if this was something in the vein of a new protaganist, new setting, etc, but we all know it'll be Kratos again. Maybe we can drop the trip to the underworld this time.
Hmm I think you're right.
Though I think 2 ReRe would be better than 3
**SPOILERS
Maybe GOW4 will show Kratos trying to fix Earth after what he did in GOW3 (you know, killing all gods, fucking up the oceans, the sun, etc.)
/noteventrollin
Then we'd have them controlled by school kids and call it Persona. :-P
I think with a new IP they can do alot of cool new stuff, I don't know what they can really do with GOW at this point. Even if they're just in it for the money, the team is so famous that at this point whatever they work on is almost guaranteed to sell great.
Soulless was a better word. Thanks Scissors <3
HOPE! HOPE IS YOUR ONLY WEAPON KRATOS!
Jaffe would have never let that happen.
A return to the direction of GOW1 & 2 is much needed.
And in the comments section of that reveal would be 'This isn't a God of War game without Kratos, I would be ok with it if it was called something else'.
I wanna see Kratos fuck up the Nordic gods, now that he's done with those pussy bankrupt Greek gods!
Maybe Kratos is gay, he does wear make-up and a skirt.
Well...it's not makeup. Come on, now Scissors. COME ON! (me)
Don't you ever say that again, if Sony hears you it will happen
It will use the uDraw controller (I used controller for lack of a better word) and the challenge of the game will exist out of drawing creatures from Greek mythology with naked breasts and giant penises (those are different examples, they're not on the same beast).
it's coming
Final Boss is Jack Nicholson
I hope there are some real surprises this E3.
I dont want to be able to predict the entire show.
