- Sony Santa Monica has confirmed God of War Laufey will be available on a physical disc
- The studio’s comment come after PlayStation’s announcement to retire physical game discs from January 2028
- This means God of War Laufey could release before the end of 2027
Following PlayStation’s announcement to retire game discs, Sony Santa Monica has confirmed that God of War Laufey will be available on disc, suggesting the game could launch within the next year.
The studio’s comment comes from X, where it shared its schedule for the God of War Laufey panel at San Diego Comic-Con.
In the thread, Sony Santa Monica added, seemingly in response to fans who have been asking for the past few weeks following PlayStation’s announcement, that “We can confirm God of War Laufey will be available on disc.”
Sony confirmed earlier this month that it would end the production of game discs starting from January 2028. Now that we know Laufey will get a physical disc, it suggests that the game will launch before 2028.
The new God of War entry was announced last month at Summer Game Fest 2026 and is set to star Kratos’ wife, Faye. It would be great if the game launched in 2026; however, there are five months left in the year.
The latter half of the year is stacked with upcoming game releases, including GTA 6 in November and Marvel’s Wolverine in September, so I find it unlikely that the new Laufey will release any time soon.
Given the studio’s comment, it’s more likely it will launch before the end of 2027, or, if we stretch it to the last possible moment, January 2028, before physical discs are retired.
Sony has faced overwhelming backlash since sharing its plan, with many fans hoping it will reverse its decision if there’s enough support.
A petition has also been created, which now has over 310,000 signatures, urging Sony to back down, but for now, the PlayStation company has remained silent.
