Sony Interactive Entertainment’s Santa Monica Studios’ reveal of their latest entry in the God of War series takes Kratos to the Nordic times. Showing a new take in gameplay mechanics and also a son, Santa Monica Studios is clearly taking the 4th installment of God of War in another perspective.
Cory Barlog, the Creative Director of the franchise, answered a Twitter user who was asking how he’s doing. Cory stated that the development is going pretty well and that it’s also an emotional meatgrinder.
Its going well. Its a daily emotional meat grinder but i feel very good about what we are doing.

Developing games can be taxing and that it also put pressure on developers with a well-established franchise. The amount of work, overtime, and coding to make everything optimize and to give players the experience they need can overwork a developer — even a Creative Director.
God of War will exclusively release on PS4. The release date is yet to be announced — hopefully this E3?
