  • God of War 6 location revealed, unveiling franchise’s next mythology – Playstation


    God of War 6 location revealed, unveiling franchise's next mythology

    Where will Kratos go next?

    After months of speculation, it seems we finally know the mythology the next God of War game will delve into.

    Having touched upon Greek and Norse mythology, God of War fans have been hoping for a fresh set of legends to be explored as Kratos and Atreus continue their journey.

    It’s an adventure that will purportedly see the duo visit the Middle East, as Sony’s award-winning franchise shifts its attention to Egyptian folklore.

    This claim comes from Daniel Richtman, as per Insider Gaming; due to Richtman’s Patreon being behind a paywall, we can’t confirm these details for ourselves.

    In this leak, it’s said that Sony is casting for “Middle Eastern actors”.

    Kratos has finally made his way onto your PC in God of War Ragnarök.

    “Sony is casting Middle Eastern actors for an unknown AAA game,” the report reads. “Which is likely to be the next God of War that explores Egyptian mythology.”

    This would align with the potential settings teased by the ending of God of War Ragnarök, which suggested several viable locations.

    What is more, fans have wanted to see Egypt play a significant role in the series, believing it to be the “most badass setting” for the next game.

    As if that wasn’t enough, we also know that Santa Monica thought about setting the last God of War adventure in Egypt before it eventually pivoted to Norse mythology instead, as mentioned in the documentary about the development of the game.

    Still, while the report supports previous theories, it’s the “unknown AAA game” bit that we need to bear in mind.

    Without knowing specifically which title is casting these actors, we can’t say with 100 percent certainty that this new game is God of War 6.

    Therefore, we need to view this claim like any other unofficial announcement: false until proven otherwise.

    Now all we can do is sit and wait for Kratos’ return, wherever that may take him.

    The highly anticipated God of War 6 has just revealed its location, giving fans a glimpse into the franchise’s next mythology. The game will take place in the ancient land of Egypt, a setting that promises to bring a whole new level of excitement and adventure to the series.

From battling mythical creatures to uncovering ancient secrets, God of War 6 is sure to deliver an epic gaming experience like never before.

  • Sony Reportedly Developing New God of War Game Set in Egyptian Mythology


    A new report suggests Sony PlayStation is working on a new AAA God of War game set in Egyptian mythology.

    The God of War franchise is one of the most beloved in gaming, with a history spanning decades and a fanbase that only continues to grow. After the release of 2018’s God of War and expanding the Norse saga with Ragnarok in 2022, Sony Santa Monica delivered not just critical acclaim but a deeply emotional narrative that resonated with players.

    With the Norse saga seemingly complete, fans have been wondering what lies ahead for Kratos. Now, it seems we finally have a hint about what the next mainline God of War installment could be.

    New God of War Game in Development?

    According to a new report, Sony is “likely” working on a brand-new God of War game set in Egyptian mythology. This information comes from Daniel Richtman, a well-known source for insider scoops in entertainment, who shared the news through a post on his Patreon.

    Richtman revealed that Sony is currently casting Middle Eastern actors for an unknown AAA title. He added that the project is “likely to be the next God of War that explores Egyptian mythology.

    The post reads: “Sony is casting Middle Eastern actors for an unknown AAA game, which is likely to be the next God of War that explores Egyptian mythology.” (thanks, VISCERAL)

    Interestingly, this isn’t the first time the idea of God of War exploring Egyptian mythology has come up. In the “Making Of” God of War (2018) documentary, creative director Cory Barlog revealed that the studio initially considered setting the game in Egyptian mythology before ultimately choosing the Norse path.

    While this is exciting news, it’s worth noting that Sony has not confirmed any of this information. Until we hear something official, we suggest taking everything with a grain of salt.

    This comes after Sony canceled a live-service God of War game in development by Bluepoint Games. That project had been in the works for two years before being shelved. On a more positive note, fans of the series can also look forward to the upcoming God of War TV adaptation, which is currently in development at Amazon Prime.

    What do you think about the possibility of Kratos stepping into Egyptian mythology? Share your thoughts in the comments below!



    Rumors have been swirling that Sony is working on a new installment in the God of War series, this time set in Egyptian mythology. According to sources close to the project, the game will follow Kratos as he navigates the rich and mysterious world of ancient Egypt, facing off against powerful gods and mythical creatures.

    Fans of the franchise are already buzzing with excitement at the prospect of exploring a new pantheon of gods and monsters in the signature visceral combat style of the God of War series. The shift in setting from Norse mythology to Egyptian mythology promises to bring a fresh and captivating experience to players, with stunning visuals and a compelling story to boot.

    While Sony has yet to officially confirm the development of a new God of War game set in Egypt, the rumors have certainly piqued the interest of fans and gamers alike. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting new chapter in the God of War series!

  • Rick & Morty Creator’s Greek Mythology Sitcom Coming To Netflix Next Month

    Rick & Morty Creator’s Greek Mythology Sitcom Coming To Netflix Next Month


    An animated Greek mythology sitcom from the creator of Rick and Morty is coming to Netflix next month. Rick and Morty season 8 is slated to debut in 2025, though co-creator Dan Harmon has also been busy with several other high-profile projects. The long-awaited Community movie is active, with series star Ken Jeong recently revealing his emotional reaction to the script.

    Rick and Morty itself is continuing to go strong, as the animated sci-fi comedy has been renewed all the way through to season 12. This means that the two-time Emmy-winning hit will be on air through at least 2029. At the same time, another one of Harmon’s shows, which only premiered last year, may soon get a boost as it’s coming to Netflix.

    Krapopolis Is Coming To Netflix In January

    The Story Is Set In Ancient Greece

    Netflix will soon be getting the first season of Harmon’s animated Greek mythology sitcom Krapopolis. Debuting on Fox in September 2023, with a total of 23 episodes, Krapopolis introduces its take on a mythologized Ancient Greece. It centers on a flawed family of humans, gods, and monsters trying to run one of the world’s first cities without killing each other. With a young human king in charge, Tyrannis (Richard Ayoade), he nonetheless gets help from a variety of creatures and deities.

    Along with Ayoade, who is known for his role as Maurice Moss in The IT Crowd, the main Krapopolis voice cast includes Matt Berry (What We Do in the Shadows), Pam Murphy (Loot), Duncan Trussell (The Midnight Gospel), and Hannah Waddingham (Ted Lasso).

    Krapopolis season 1 will debut on Netflix in the United States on January 15. The comedy is currently airing season 2, which streams on Hulu, but there’s no word yet on whether the other installments will be available on Netflix. Nevertheless, the show’s first outing offers a good sample of what viewers can expect.

    Should You Watch Krapopolis?

    It’s An Easy Watch

    There are comparisons between Krapopolis and Rick and Morty since both hail from the same creator, but the setting and some of the themes diverge. The first episode debuted with a 1.2 rating in the key 18-49 demographic, in addition to 3.6 million viewers in terms of Live + Same Day viewers. However, while the show’s had a strong launch, reviews for Krapopolis are mixed. Still, the consensus on Rotten Tomatoes points to a general endorsement. It reads, in part, “Krapopolis falls short of divine comedy but offers consistent enough chuckles…

    For Fans Of…

    • Rick and Morty
    • Dan Harmon
    • Animated comedies
    • Lighthearted stories about Greek mythology

    Perhaps the biggest reason to recommend the show is that there will be a Krapopolis season 3 and beyond. That means that, for anyone that checks out the show and enjoys it, they won’t have to worry about a quick and unexpected cancellation. It likely won’t register as a top-tier or groundbreaking comedy, but it’s a generally solid adult animated series to add to the rotation.

    Source: Netflix



    Get ready to embark on a hilarious journey through Greek mythology with the upcoming Netflix series created by the mastermind behind Rick & Morty. The highly anticipated sitcom, set to premiere next month, promises to bring a fresh and irreverent take on the classic tales of gods, goddesses, and monsters.

  • The Role of Necromancers in Folklore and Mythology

    The Role of Necromancers in Folklore and Mythology


    Necromancers are a recurring figure in folklore and mythology, playing a significant role in various cultures and traditions around the world. These practitioners of dark magic are believed to have the ability to communicate with the dead and manipulate spirits for their own purposes.

    In many ancient cultures, necromancers were revered for their abilities to harness the power of the afterlife. In Greek mythology, for example, the necromancer Hecate was known as the goddess of witchcraft and necromancy, guiding individuals through the underworld and acting as a mediator between the living and the dead.

    In medieval Europe, necromancers were often feared and persecuted for their alleged abilities to raise the dead and summon demons. The infamous sorcerer, Faust, is a prime example of a necromancer in European folklore, who made a pact with the devil in exchange for supernatural powers.

    In African folklore, necromancers are known as witch doctors or shamans who possess the ability to communicate with the spirits of the deceased. These practitioners are often called upon to heal the sick or provide guidance from the ancestors.

    In modern popular culture, necromancers are often depicted as dark and sinister figures who manipulate death for their own gain. In the Harry Potter series, for example, the character of Lord Voldemort is a powerful necromancer who uses dark magic to control the dead and achieve immortality.

    Despite their dark reputation, necromancers have also been portrayed as misunderstood or tragic figures in some stories. In the popular television series, “The Witcher,” the character of Yennefer is a powerful sorceress who struggles with her abilities to communicate with the dead, ultimately using her powers for the greater good.

    Overall, the role of necromancers in folklore and mythology is a complex and multifaceted one. Whether revered or feared, these practitioners of dark magic continue to captivate our imaginations and inspire countless tales of mystery and intrigue.

  • Exploring the Role of Necromancy in Folklore and Mythology

    Exploring the Role of Necromancy in Folklore and Mythology


    Necromancy, the practice of communicating with the dead, has long been a fascinating and controversial topic in folklore and mythology. From ancient civilizations to modern popular culture, the concept of necromancy has permeated various belief systems and traditions, often invoking feelings of fear, intrigue, and mystery.

    In many cultures, necromancers are portrayed as mysterious and powerful figures who possess the ability to commune with spirits and manipulate the realms of the living and the dead. They are often depicted as dark and sinister individuals who dabble in forbidden magic, using their powers to control the spirits of the deceased for personal gain or to seek revenge on their enemies.

    One of the most well-known examples of necromancy in folklore is the story of the witch of Endor from the Bible. In the Book of Samuel, King Saul seeks out the help of the witch to summon the spirit of the prophet Samuel, who had recently died. The witch successfully conjures Samuel’s spirit, who predicts Saul’s impending doom and downfall.

    In Greek mythology, the figure of Hecate, the goddess of witchcraft and necromancy, is often associated with the practice of communicating with the dead. Hecate is said to have the power to guide souls to the underworld and to reveal hidden knowledge from the realm of the dead.

    In medieval Europe, necromancy was considered a form of black magic and was often associated with witchcraft and demonic worship. The infamous grimoire, the “Key of Solomon,” contains instructions on how to summon and control spirits for various purposes, including divination and prophecy.

    In modern popular culture, necromancy continues to be a prevalent theme in literature, film, and television. The Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling features the character of Voldemort, a dark wizard who uses necromancy to achieve immortality and control over the dead. In the television series “Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” the character of Willow Rosenberg dabbles in necromancy to resurrect her deceased lover.

    Despite its dark and taboo nature, necromancy also holds a symbolic significance in folklore and mythology. It represents the human desire to overcome death and to communicate with the spirit world, seeking answers and guidance from those who have passed on. In some cultures, necromancy is seen as a sacred and revered practice, used for healing and spiritual purposes rather than for malevolent intentions.

    Overall, the role of necromancy in folklore and mythology is a complex and multifaceted one, reflecting the diverse beliefs and traditions of different cultures throughout history. It continues to capture the imagination of people around the world, serving as a reminder of the eternal mystery of life and death.
