Following the 20th anniversary of the God of War franchise, fans are buzzing with excitement over a new job listing that hints at a potential new project from Santa Monica Studio. While the anniversary itself didn't bring any major game announcements, this recent development has rekindled hopes for a new installment or perhaps even the long-rumored remasters.

The job posting, discovered by Game Rant, seeks a Quest Designer to join the team responsible for God of War.  Intriguingly, the listing specifies a requirement for candidates to have a "personal understanding of the God of War games."  This detail strongly suggests the role is connected to the franchise, rather than a completely new IP.

The Quest Designer's responsibilities would include designing and implementing quest objectives, narrative moments, and dialogue.  These core elements point toward a substantial project, further fueling speculation about a new game.

While fans were treated to the Dark Odyssey update for God of War Ragnarok in March, adding new armor and cosmetic items inspired by the original God of War, many are still craving a more substantial addition to the franchise.

Prior rumors suggested remasters of the original God of War trilogy were in the works, with an anticipated announcement around the 20th anniversary.  However, these rumors ultimately proved unfounded, leaving fans disappointed.

Despite Santa Monica Studio confirming there would be no major announcements during the anniversary celebrations, this new job listing offers a glimmer of hope. It's unclear whether the position relates to the rumored remasters, a brand new game, or another project entirely.

Given the four-year gap between the release of God of War (2018) and God of War Ragnarok (2022), fans may need to exercise patience for a while longer.  However, the prospect of a new God of War project on the horizon is certainly enough to keep anticipation high.
