Cory Barlog is a veteran developer from Santa Monica Studio. His early contributions to the studio began with the God of War franchise after he played a major role as an animator for the first game and directed God of War 2.
Following this release, Cory Barlog departed from the God of War team in 2012 but would later return to the studio in 2013. The developer then led a fresh direction for God of War, emphasizing the narrative of Kratos and his new journey in the Norse realm.
Under his leadership, Santa Monica Studio breathed new life into God of War after the franchise had begun to suffer from a repetitive formula. After this success, Cory Barlog is working on a new IP, and you can learn all about his past and current projects in the articles below.
