Kratos to Reportedly Wield an Egyptian Sword in Next God of War
A new rumor from industry insider Tom Henderson suggests that Kratos will wield an “Egyptian-style sword” in the next mainline God of War game. The new weapon, described as similar to a scimitar or khopesh, could replace the Leviathan Axe and Blades of Chaos as his primary weapon.
This report adds weight to long-standing rumors that the next installment will be set in Egyptian mythology. While the move would mark a major shift for the franchise, it aligns with a long-teased possibility within the game’s lore. The change would also introduce a new combat style for Kratos, focusing on faster, fluid combos.
