God of War Laufey delayed to May 20, 2027

Santa Monica Studio has announced a three-month delay for its upcoming PlayStation 5 exclusive, God of War Laufey. The game, which was initially slated for a February 16 release, is now scheduled to launch on May 20, 2027. This decision aims to allow the development team additional time to refine the game and ensure it reaches its full potential. The delay also provides more breathing room between God of War Laufey and other major releases, including Sony's own Until Dawn 2 and the annual MLB: The Show titles. AI
