Kratos’ voice actor Christopher Judge appears to have spilled the reveal plans for the next God of War.
In a meet and greet exchange originally uploaded by Fuzhpuzy and mirrored on Reddit, the actor innocently reveals that fans will “hear about what we’re doing, probably late summer”. This actually aligns with recent rumours, which suggested Santa Monica Studio’s next major PS5 game will release in 2027.
In the video, Judge explains to a supporter that TC Carson will be reprising his role as Kratos in the God of War Trilogy Remake, so he won’t be involved with that. He says the game will feature new technologies and a fresh fighting system.
He then goes on to reveal the tidbit about Santa Monica Studio’s next game, which will supposedly “feel like” a new IP. Many are expecting it to take place in a new mythology, potentially in Ancient Egypt.
Rumourmongers had already hinted the game would be announced later this year, ahead of a release in 2027. It’s possible, then, we’ll hear about it during a State of Play around the time of Summer Game Fest – although the “late summer” window Judge mentions suggests we may have to wait beyond that, unless he’s mistaken.
Either way, it does seem like smoke is beginning to form around this project now. Are you excited to see what Santa Monica Studio has been up to? We may not have to wait too much longer to find out.
