There seems to have been a lot of delays for various first-party PS5 projects. The latest supposedly impacts a previously rumored PS5 game many PlayStation fans are eager to see in action.

Previously rumored PS5 Greek God of War project pushed to 2026
According to Giant Bomb’s Jeff Grubb, the previously rumored Greek God of War game for PS5 has been pushed to 2026. During Grubb and Mike Minotti’s latest episode of Last of the Nintendogs, Grubb let out that little “nugget” during the Super Chats portion of the show.

“I have Marathon and the unannounced new God of War Greek project, which I heard was pushed into 2026, as well.”

Rumors about the Greek God of War project have been swirling quite a bit this year. Back in January this year, fans began speculating that the next iteration of the beloved PlayStation series would be heading to Egypt. However, known insider Tom Henderson claimed it would be set in Greece, which Grubb has since corroborated.

In terms of what this new God of War game entails, it is rumored to be a spin-off. Specifically, it will supposedly be a 2.5D metroidvania and feature Kratos before he becomes a god. It is also claimed that Deimos would return.

Of course, like all rumors, it might be best to take it with a grain of salt. As of now, the Greek God of War project has yet to be formally revealed by Sony. Even if true, the game’s development timeline can change at any moment, which lead to these supposed internal delays.

For PS5 and PS4 players itching to play a God of War game set in Greece, God of War 3 Remastered is available to purchase on the PS Store. PS Plus Premium subscribers can play the game at no additional cost.
