Rumors had been circulating that the studio would unveil remasters of the classic God of War titles during this celebration. These claims were even supported by insider and journalist Jeff Grubb, fueling excitement among the franchise's dedicated fanbase. In response, Santa Monica Studio issued the following statement to clarify their intentions:
"Pantheons collide! We’re thrilled to present a lineup of Greek and Norse characters for this panel celebrating the 20th anniversary of God of War where we’ll reflect on the past two decades of the series. Given the star-studded lineup and the anticipation surrounding this milestone, we want to make it clear that no announcements are planned for this event." - Santa Monica Studio
Rather than focusing on new game announcements, the event will showcase new thematic artwork featuring Kratos and Jörmungandr. Fans can also look forward to appearances by beloved actors from the God of War series, including Terrence Carson, the original voice of Kratos, and Carole Ruggier, who lent her voice to Athena. The panel is set to take place on March 22, promising a memorable celebration of the series' rich history.
