Sony announces God of War: Laufey game centering on Faye

Sony's Santa Monica Studio confirmed the upcoming title **God of War: Laufey**, which will focus on the character Laufey (also known as Faye), the giantess whose influence shaped the events of earlier games. Creative director Cory Barlog and game director Ariel Lawrence said Kratos will continue to appear in future titles but this spin‑off explores the afterlife of the gods. Barlog emphasized, “There’s always going to be Kratos games… we’re super excited about that.”

Barlog described the game's divine antagonists as selfish and compared them to a gathering of billionaires, noting they will clash in the game's setting called the Everywhen, the afterlife realm for gods. He said, “They’re all assholes,” indicating the tone will be standalone yet benefits from playing earlier entries like 2018 God of War and Ragnarok.
