And whoever is running that account got a big win here, because this entire exchange is now approaching five million views.<\/p>\n<p>Sony\u2019s since said that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pushsquare.com\/news\/2026\/06\/we-have-many-more-stories-to-tell-with-kratos-sony-confirms-new-games-with-god-of-wars-protagonist\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Kratos will return in future God of War games<\/a>, so this all seems a bit unnecessary in hindsight. It\u2019s perhaps another reminder that social media isn\u2019t the fun place it used to be, however.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text source\">[source <a class=\"external\" title=\"External Link: https:\/\/x.com\/SonySantaMonica\/status\/2062237491655250292\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/SonySantaMonica\/status\/2062237491655250292\">x.com<\/a>]<\/p>\n<p>\tRelated Games<\/p>\n<p>\tSee Also<\/p>\n<p class=\"avatar\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/1759573209_524_avatar.jpg\" width=\"80\" height=\"80\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"Sammy Barker\"\/><\/p>\n<p>As the Editor of Push Square, Sammy has over 15 years of experience analysing the world of PlayStation, from PS3 through PS5 and everything in between.
