God of War Laufey delayed three months, to 20 May 2027

Santa Monica Studio's next God of War — the Faye-centred Laufey — has slipped from 16 February 2027 to Thursday 20 May 2027, a 93-day delay recorded on 5 November. The move takes it out of a stacked February (it would have launched a week before Fable) and into a much quieter May, where it currently stands alone as the month's tentpole PS5 exclusive. No reason beyond the usual polish was attached to the change in the reporting so far. If you were planning February around it, the Release Radar has already been re-sorted with the new date.
