The latest addition to the God of War universe, “God of War Ragnarok,” has been stirring excitement with its free Valhalla DLC, launched on December 12. Fans of the series have more to look forward to, as Sony Santa Monica’s senior writer Orion Walker has hinted at an extended narrative beyond the credits of this new update. This tease has sparked curiosity and speculation among the gaming community, eagerly awaiting what lies ahead for Kratos and his journey.
While details about what follows the Valhalla DLC are scarce, the DLC itself is described as more than just an add-on. It serves as an epilogue to the main story of Ragnarok, featuring Kratos embarking on challenging trials in the realm of Valhalla. Notably, in this new adventure, Kratos is accompanied by Mimir but without the presence of Atreus, adding a unique twist to the gameplay and narrative.
You really think the *credits* are the end of the story? C'mon. C'mon now. #GodOfWarRagnarokValhalla

Further fueling the excitement is a job listing from earlier in the year, suggesting that a new God of War game might be in development. This prospect, coupled with Eric Williams’ comment about embracing Sony Santa Monica’s identity as the ‘God of War studio,’ points to a potential continuation of the series. The anticipation for what’s next is palpable, with fans speculating on the direction the franchise might take following the events of the Valhalla DLC.
