Reports have surfaced suggesting a potential return of the original God of War games on the PS5. Notorious rumor mill Nick Baker, speaking on the Xbox Era podcast, hinted at the possibility of a remaster for Kratos' initial three adventures. While God of War 3 has already seen a re-release on the PS4, playable through backward compatibility on the PS5, the remastering trend for the series dates back to the PS3 era, where the first two games and their PSP counterparts were revamped.

The PS5, unlike its predecessor, lacks native compatibility for PS3 games, prompting speculation about the return of the original trilogy. Baker, known for previous PlayStation rumors, acknowledged the limited details but raised questions about the nature of the remaster – whether it would be a straightforward port or a more extensive remake.

While Baker's track record with predictions has been mixed, with some rumors not materializing, the potential remaster of the God of War trilogy could serve preservation purposes. The ties between the PS2 titles and the recent God of War Ragnarok: Valhalla add-on hint at a strategic move by Sony to make these classics more accessible on modern hardware.

As the speculations swirl, it remains uncertain whether this remaster will materialize or if it's merely a well-founded guess in the realm of gaming rumors.
