God of War Laufey joins packed February 2027 release schedule

February 2027 is shaping up to be an incredibly busy month for game releases. Not only will we see titles like Fable, Persona 4 Revival and Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis, but now Sony has also confirmed that the next God of War game will also launch that month.

As announced during a panel at San Diego Comic Con, God of War: Laufey will launch on February 16th 2027, and unlike some of Sony’s future projects, this game will still ship on disc. Physical PlayStation releases will continue until January 2028, meaning Laufey arrives long before Sony transitions away from producing physical copies.

God of War: Laufey is not a direct sequel to God of War Ragnarök. Instead, it takes place before those events, following Kratos’ wife, Faye, who awakens unexpectedly in a strange land after her death. As described on the PlayStation Store: “Death was supposed to be the end, but for Laufey (Faye), warrior and wife to Kratos, a new adventure is just beginning.” To protect Kratos and Atreus, she must fight through the Everywhen, an afterlife where gods from across mythology battle for power. Players will harness Faye’s speed and precision to overcome dangerous foes and navigate a world overflowing with magic.

February 2027 is shaping up to be a packed month for major releases. Alongside God of War: Laufey, players can expect Fable, Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis, Metro 2039, Persona 4 Revival and more, all launching within days to weeks of each other.

KitGuru Says: With February being so busy, I'll likely be skipping this until later in the year. Are you planning on picking up the new God of War at launch? Or will you be picking up one of the other major titles coming out that month?
