From the mythic halls of Santa Monica Studios, a new chapter in the God of War saga takes shape in deliberate silence — one centered not on the god of war himself, but on the woman whose death set everything in motion. Industry insiders and veteran reporters alike suggest that Faye's journey through the Everywhen, a realm beyond time, may reach players in the first half of 2027, reminding us that in both myth and game development, the most meaningful stories are rarely rushed.
