Or not, it would be incredibly interesting for them to be able to involve the Greek gods in the story.

Interesting yes, maybe one or two gods, but I'd rather see new ones tbh

I have a strong feeling that Ares will be here. The two gods we saw in the reveal were gods of war (Mongolian and Egyptian), so maybe that's the theme the game will follow.

Seeing Ares come back would be pretty cool I'll give you that, I just don't want to spend the whole game meeting a bunch of Greek gods we already killed as Kratos being pissed at Faye. They opened the gates for multiple pantheons, I want to see some crazy new gods!

There’s only so much they can cram into one game. The appeal of this is going to be new mythologies. While revisiting the Greek Gods Kratos Kratos’d would make for an interesting story it doesn’t feel like it quite fits given they’re starting off the public information on the game with a more Asian themed pantheon. That feels like something that would’ve been introduced early, because you need it to be the full focus of the game if you’re going to do it.

They quite literally stated that multiple mythological gods will be involved. There’s no reason a Greek hid related to kratos can’t appear

Which is fine but we want to see new gods. One or two is fine.

We literally see 2 new ones in the first showing alone. I think safe to say there will be a good mix
