Sony Santa Monica’s next project reportedly planned to release next year

As part of the closer for Sony’s recent PlayStation State of Play, the console maker revealed that Sony Santa Monica is currently working on remaking the original God of War trilogy. While the project remains in its early stages, the studio is reportedly gearing up to announce another as-of-yet-unknown title later this year – with its releases scheduled for 2027.

Following the recent reveal that Sony Santa Monica is working on a remake of the Greek God of War Trilogy, multiple insiders have come out to offer new details on the team’s yet-to-be-announced though long-rumoured secret project.

Reportedly under the direction of Cory Barlog (who served as creative director for 2018’s God of War and Ragnarok), Sony Santa Monica is seemingly set to officially unveil this illusive new IP this year, with insiders Shinobi602 and NateTheHate both suggesting that the game will likely be announced this Summer alongside a 2027 release date “unless a major delay happens.”

As mentioned, there has been no official announcement for this project, and so everything revealed so far should be taken with a pinch of salt. That said, we have heard various different details pertaining to the project, with previous leaks and rumours claiming that it would be a brand new IP in a sci-fi setting (though this has seemingly since been somewhat disproven).

Regardless of what this new project winds up being, here’s to hoping that we do get an official announcement sooner rather than later – if for no other reason than to satiate the ongoing curiosity.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
