The Pitch For Reimagining God Of War
With our new cover story on God of War for the PlayStation 4, we go into details about the journey of Kratos and Atreus. However, with this video interview, we want to focus on the development team at Santa Monica Studio and specifically on the decisions of creative director Cory Barlog and studio head Shannon Studstill. While visiting the studio, we spoke with Barlog and Studstill about reimagining God of War and how much they were willing to change up the classic formula in order to breathe new life into the series.
Watch the video below to learn other mythologies the team might want to explore in the future, why they didn't make an open-world game, and much more.

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
