Prime Video Orders Critically Acclaimed PlayStation Video Game ‘God Of War’ Series

PlayStation-exclusive God of War: Ragnarok made all kinds of buzz lately. It was released to rave reviews. Fans praised it for improving over its prequel in every way. Then it sold over five million copies and became the fastest-selling first-party PlayStation title ever and the highest-selling title in the God of War Series.

It also took The Game Awards by storm by winning several awards. And now it is all set to be an Amazon Live-action series.

Amazon Studios officially orders the God of War live-action series

Amazon Studios have been in talks with Sony about turning God of War into a live-action series. It seems like the success of the latest entry in the series has convinced them to finally take this conversation to the next level. They have finally gone ahead and ordered a full series based on this successful series.

The series as per VGC has been in development since March 2022. But Amazon only cemented everything recently and hence the public announcement.

Rafe Judkins would be the series showrunner. Before this, he worked on Amazon’s Wheel of Time series, which is based on a bestseller fantasy novel series. Mark Fergus and Hawk Ostby, the writers of Ironman, Children of Men, and The Expanse will be penning the screenplay.

While Yumi Yang, Head of Sony Santa Monica Studios, game’s creative director Cory Barlog, and PlayStation Productions head Asad Qizilbash, would be involved as executive producers.

This involvement of the original creators is being seen as a very positive sign by the fans. They are hoping that this would prevent the series from straying too much from its central ideas.
