Jason Schreier hinted at the imminent release of God of War: Laufey

One of the bigger surprises at the recent State of Play was Sony's reveal of God of War: Laufey — a full look at the project, yet no release window was offered. That silence sent many players toward the assumption that the title is years off.

Jason Schreier of Bloomberg has pushed back against reading too much into Sony’s restraint. He argues this case isn’t like the long‑teased projects that show up far ahead of readiness; instead, he suggests Laufey is closer to shipping than the absence of a date implies. In short: don’t treat a missing timeframe as proof of a distant launch.

His take also feeds into older whispers that the game is already in a mature state — insiders reportedly point to H1 2027 (i.e., the first half of 2027) as a plausible window, e.g., if no major delays occur.

Laufey will expand the Norse arc and, notably, put Faye — Kratos’s long‑shadowed wife — at center stage for the first time. Sony has released the initial trailer and outlined basic plot beats; a fuller game reveal is likely still to come.
