David Jaffe passed down the reigns of the God of War franchise to Cory Barlog, who took over the director's seat for the critically acclaimed God of War II. However, it looks like Barlog is also leaving the house of Kratos. "We can confirm that Cory Barlog, game director for God of War II, is leaving the SCEA Santa Monica Studio and we are grateful for his work and creative vision for the critically acclaimed God of War franchise," says a Sony spokesperson to 1UP.This surprising announcement will not affect the upcoming Chains of Olympus or the never-really-officially-announced God of War III for PS3. "Moving forward, we are confident in the God of War team, as they are an extremely talented group of people that are passionate about the franchise and dedicated to creating even more epic content with God of War: Chains of Olympus for the PSP and God of War III for PS3."
