According to reports of Deadline, Mark Fergus and Jawk Ostby will be seen as a part of God of War. Both Fergus and Ostby share an Oscar nomination for co-writing Children of Men. Interestingly, they also co-wrote the script for Iron Man which was a huge box office collection too.  It is expected that the highlight will be the fight with Thor who is popularly known as the God of Thunder. It is expected that God of War Ragnarok will be released this year but there has been no official confirmation by Sony yet. Currently, there is no additional information about the television adaptation of the game. 

If the deal of God of War is closed by Amazon, it will be considered one of the biggest deals for a television series based on a popular video game. The God of War franchise belongs to Sony’s Santa Monica Studio and it supports seven games across four PlayStation consoles. The game made its debut on PlayStation 2 back in 2005. After the initial success, various additional titles were on PlayStation consoles along with PS 3 and the handheld PSP. The video game was brought back to life with another title in 2018 on the PlayStation 4. The game became so popular that it earned the award of Game of the Year in the 2018 Game Awards. Currently, the video game is working on its eighth installment that is titled God of War Ragnarok. According to reports, the game will be available in both PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 and will be released in 2022 itself.
