Overview
- Screenshots of a now-deleted LinkedIn profile for a former Sony Santa Monica senior writer suggest work on “a new franchise within the God of War universe,” though the post cannot be authenticated.
- Industry insiders NateTheHate2 and Shpeshal Nick report the unannounced title would star Faye with faster, action-focused combat, aiming for a 2026 reveal and a first-half 2027 launch, which Sony has not confirmed.
- The leak-driven reports align with prior Bloomberg reporting that Sony plans sequels and spinoffs and that the studio’s next game is not a new IP but could feel like one.
- Prime Video’s live-action adaptation is in production in Vancouver with a two-season order and new casting that includes Thor’s children Thrúd, Magni, and Modi, as well as Gna, alongside previously announced leads.
- The show’s first-look image prompted sharp criticism from series co-creator David Jaffe, while Kratos actor Ryan Hurst urged fans “not to believe everything you see on the internet,” and production and casting updates continued.
