Now, game director Cory Barlog reveals that this was his call, and he made it due to the long development times of the recent God of War games, as well as a desire to keep the narrative tight.
Speaking in an interview with YouTuber Kaptain Kuba, Barlog was asked why the Norse Saga is only getting two entires. "I think the most important reason is the first game took five years. The second game - I don't know how long it's going to take, but I'm just going to throw out that it's going to take close to a similar time", he said. "Then a third one - we're talking like a span of close to 15 years of a single story. And I feel like that's just too stretched out."
Elaborating on the reason for his decision, he also explained how he fel🦩t t♎he two-game format best suited the narrative.
"Most of what we were trying to do from the beginning was tell something about Kratos and Atreus. The core of the story's engine is really the relationship between these two characters, and the complexity radiates out like ripples in a pond. And we could make it an ocean, and have those ripples just go for thousands of miles. But is that necessary? Is that beneficial?"
He also compares the desired experience of playing both Norse Saga games to binge-watching The Lord of the Rings extended edition trilogy, where players feel like they're getting a satisfying and contained story.
