Editor's Pick: This title focuses on the legendary female warrior and leader who left a profound impact across the Nine Realms of Norse mythology: Laufey, wife of Kratos & mother of Atreus, whose final wishes and will form a main thread of the new God of War. From the trailer, it's clear that Laufey is not a prequel about how the two met, but rather a story happening in the afterlife after Faye's death, running parallel to God of War. It's also evident that the new title carries on the over-the-shoulder perspective, one continuous shot, the industry's one-of-a-kind combat feel, and seamlessly integrated boss battles. The remaining details will surely be polished even more meticulously than the Norse saga of God of War.
The Hong Kong server pricing for this title has sparked discussion in the player community. Since entering the PS5 generation, a first-party game priced at HK$388 is a first. Is this because the scope of this title is limited, or to pave the way for canceling physical discs in 2028, or is it that with the rising influence of Chinese games like Black Myth: Wukong and Phantom Blade Zero, Sony has finally decided to align the PSN Hong Kong server—which has the most Chinese users—with Steam's Chinese region pricing? These questions will need time to give us answers.
