The Everywhen
Faye awakens in a transcendent realm where gods and creatures from multiple mythologies coexist, including threats such as Sekhmet and Begtse.

Santa Monica Studio is combining modern God of War combat with greater mobility and some classic Greek-era DNA. Faye can fight across the ground and air and use powerful soul-related abilities.
Release Date and Platform
PlayStation confirms God of War Laufey for PS5. Because PlayStation's own regional pages currently conflict on release timing, XGW is keeping the release date listed as TBA until the date is consistently confirmed.
