Games that Deserve TV Series Adaptations

Mature stories and complex worlds deserve their own series. Game-related books have always accompanied brands like World of Warcraft, or Mass Effect, so why not switch to TV series now?

God of War

Adaptation: a serious fantasy series set in Norse mythology.

I am a passionate fan of the new incarnation of Kratos, now complete with an offspring. The inspirations from Norse mythology immediately resemble the aesthetics of the Vikings, which should have ended after the second season (as most series; the case with The Walking Dead was the same).

After I finished the new God War, I had an unpleasant voracity for several days. I wanted to know more. Why did Kratos even end up where he did? What was his relationship with his wife? Or maybe it could be a spin-off just about her? Or the world of giants? Or Baldur and his mother? So many possibilities! In the meantime, you might want to check out the documentary on creating the game. Raising Kratos can be found on YouTube – it's really worth it.
