Are greek gods alive after God Of War 3?












6















God Of War 3 shows Athena in spectral form after Kratos kills her in God Of War 2 and later on she gives him blades of the exile. Does this mean that other gods that Kratos killed are alive in some form and can they give their followers weapons and other stuff that might give the gods their powers back?

          Probably not



          In GoW 3 Athena says that "her sacrifice to save Zeus has brought her to a higher existance". see cutscene at ~0:30



          Also, Zeus had an appearance in his Astral Form in his fight against Kratos. see cutscene at ~18:28



          This does suggest that every god might have an Astral Form after death, however these are the only appearances that I know of. According to the wiki it is unclear, if all the gods have access to the Astral Form. But an interesting fact is stated here: Both Athena and Zeus were killed by the Blade of Olympus which might be an indication that this is necessary for an Astral Form to appear. Also we never see an Astral Form of a Titan, despite Kratos killed some of them with the Blade of Olympus.



          This is why I think it's not probable that the Greek Gods are alive after GoW 3. It appears however that we don't have all the facts and because of that it remains unclear if that is the case.

            I don't think so, because Kratos has slain them all(including the Greek God Zeus), After the execution on Zeus the Greek mythology story is over, and Sony has moved to Norse Mythology.



            What happened between God of War 3 and the new Norse mythology is the question here.

              They're dead. Zeus's Astral form can be seen in the land of the dead in Helheim.

                  No, the other gods are not alive. The world, after Kratos ends his massacre is full of chaos and despair. Athena has no hopes of restoring balance.
                  The sequel God of War:Ascension follows a storyline which is said to happen after God of War 1.

                  • I've read this in an article. Moreover it's evident from the last cinematics of GOW 3.

                  • A link to the article or a video of the cinematics would be nice. It's not necessary, but it would definitely improve the answer.

                  • You must be aware of the full GOW story or you will not understand anything. The meaning of the cinematics should be understood just like you would understand a poem.
