God of War Laufey Director Says Fusion of “Old and New” Combat Systems is Possible Because of Faye

Santa Monica Studio director Ariel Lawrence discussed the potential for God of War Laufey to fuse the classic pick-up-and-play combat of the original trilogy with the more grounded, visceral style of God of War (2018) and Ragnarok. The new protagonist, Faye, is seen as the ideal character to embody this blend of old and new combat systems. The game is allegedly launching in the first half of 2027 exclusively for PlayStation 5.
