God of War: Laufey delayed to May 20, 2027
Santa Monica Studio delayed God of War: Laufey by about three months.
The PS5 game was due on February 16, 2027, but is now scheduled to launch on May 20.
The studio said it will use the extra time to add finishing touches and push the game to its full potential.
The game stars Deborah Ann Woll as Faye, a more graceful and nimble fighter than Kratos.
Jack Quaid also appears as Phranque, a gelatinous cube.
The delay gives the team more time to finish the game before its planned release.
The studio said it will share more updates soon, and a new Kratos-led game is planned to continue the story after Laufey.
