IGN is running an interview teaser with a ballsy headline – “God of War Could Come to Vita, iOS” – with the full interview to follow.
“You may yet see God of War on a non-Sony platform at some point,” it says, claiming Sony is “exploring avenues to bring God of War to PlayStation Vita and beyond.”
“I think with the way the industry’s playing that dysfunctional passive aggressive type of mentality, we as a company and we as an industry constantly have to look at all opportunities,” said PSP God of War developers Ready at Dawn.
“It doesn’t mean we’ll go there, but there’s certainly reason to talk about it.”
Nobody’s actually saying the series could end up on iPhones here, just that they’re not ruling it out. What’s entirely more likely is that a Vita version is on the cards.
There was a phone version of God Of War a few years ago. You can see it above.
Yeah.

From my very limited experience of God of War games (played Chain of Olympus but nowt else) isn’t button mashing pretty important to the series? Wouldn’t fancy that on a touch screen

I think that copycat iPad game manages that pretty well tbh

I can see a God Of War game working on the Vita but not IOS due to the lack of buttons. I doubt that punching the screen as a control prompt would get past QA testing and that it’s not generally designed for touchscreen.
Plus, i think they’ve covered almost everything that they needed to cover with Kratos so i hope if they do another GOW game, it will be in a different time period with a new protaganist. :)

GOW on Vita via the PS Suite would be great.
