Ending sequence in God of War has already foreshadowed that Thor would be a future enemy for Kratos and Ragnarök will follow as well. There were also heavy implications of highlighting identity of his young son Atreus in next GoW title.
Some rumors are suggesting sequel to be titled God of War: Fimbulwinter, heralding Ragnarök. Santa Monica Studio may focus even more on father-son relationship of Kratos and Atreus, while exploring more elements of Norse mythology.
