God of War Laufey Revealed

PlayStation is thrilled to share what the team at Santa Monica Studio has been working on, the next mainline entry to the God of War series: God of War Laufey.

Death was supposed to be the end, but for Laufey (Faye), warrior and wife to Kratos, a new adventure is just beginning. Awakening unexpectedly in a strange land after her funeral, Faye discovers the plans she put in place to protect Kratos and Atreus are now at risk. To save the ones she loves, Faye must fight through the afterlife of the gods — the Everywhen — where ruthless gods from across mythology vie for power in a land overflowing with dangerous magic. Watch the gameplay reveal video below.

Santa Monica Studio’s Head of Creative Cory Barlog and God of War Laufey’s Game Director Ariel Lawrence sat down for an extended interview, speaking about the reveal, how the idea of a Faye game first came to be, and the long-term creative vision for the franchise. Watch the interview below.

God of War’s next chapter features intimate, brutal combat and exploration of a rich, beautiful world, with story at its heart. God of War Laufey is available for wishlisting today on the PlayStation Store.

Copy from PlayStation Blog, written by Aaron Jason Espinoza, Advanced Senior Community Manager, Insomniac Games

The wait is over! We have an all-new gameplay video for Marvel’s Wolverine, along with details about our gameplay, characters, and story from the recent State of Play. We’re also excited to announce you can pre-order Marvel’s Wolverine starting today.

Marvel’s Wolverine is a brutal, violent, and action-packed single-player adventure from the team at Insomniac Games, in collaboration with Marvel Games. It cuts deeper than claw combat alone, with an emotionally charged original story centred on a comic book icon: James “Logan” Howlett, aka Wolverine.

To set up the Extended Gameplay Trailer, Logan is tailing a group of mutants that have been hunted and captured by the Reavers, a guns-for-hire cybernetic militia. The Reavers have plans to deliver the mutants to their client, Bolivar Trask – a billionaire industrialist driven by a fanatical belief in human superiority. The trailer also introduces another major player in Logan’s journey: Jean Grey, a powerful telekinetic and emergent leader of the captured mutants.

Marvel’s Wolverine releases September 15, 2026 and you can pre-order now to secure access to early unlock bonuses via the PlayStation Store, or at participating retailers.

Until Dawn 2 is coming to PS5 in 2027

Back in 2015, Until Dawn arrived on PlayStation 4, and we all fell (and screamed) in love with this instant classic. Now, PlayStation and Firesprite Games are beyond excited to finally announce an all-new sequel for PS5… and if that’s not enough, we’ve got the world’s first trailer, right below, just for you.

Until Dawn 2 is a standalone experience, featuring a brand new cast, a whole new world to explore, and true to form, a modern horror experience packed with intrigue, emotion, twists, and the kind of choices that will keep you up at night. Your decisions still shape the story: who falls victim, and who survives Until Dawn…

Our cast this time is a crew of ghost hunters, the faces behind the wildly popular paranormal channel, Dead True. Only, well… they’ve never actually seen anything supernatural. The scares they are known for are, let’s say, a little staged. But all that changes when, for the very first time, they come face-to-face with real horrors and must start living up to their reputation to survive until dawn.

Until Dawn 2 is coming to PS5 in 2027. 

Head to the PlayStation Blog for more information.
