Tom Henderson Teases God Of War Laufey for June 2 State of Play
god of war laufey is expected to headline PlayStation's State of Play on June 2, after Tom Henderson said the next God of War installment was originally due in April. The reveal would put one of the platform's biggest franchises into a showcase that already has four games attached to it.
Tom Henderson on June 2
Tom Henderson said, "We're gonna get the next God of War, originally supposed to be revealed in April as well as Break In (formerly Haven studio’s Fairgame$)" on Insider Gaming Weekly. That is the clearest date-specific signal in the run-up to State of Play, with the show set for 2:00pm PT, 5:00pm ET, and 11:00pm CEST on June 2.
June 3 at 6:00am JST is the same showcase in Japan, which gives the event a broad international window rather than a single-market rollout. For a game like God of War, that timing matters because the first look lands in front of a global audience instead of being held back for a regional beat.
Faye and the four-game lineup
Tom Henderson said the next God of War is dedicated to Faye, which narrows the focus of the reveal before a trailer ever appears. He also said Rayman Legends Retold will appear on State of Play, adding a fourth title to a lineup that already includes Marvel's Wolverine, Break In, and the God of War spin-off about Faye.
Four confirmed games gives the June 2 show a much clearer shape than a vague teaser slate, and that is the friction point here: one of the biggest franchises is being held for the same showcase as a remake, a rebooted project, and Marvel's Wolverine. That mix suggests the event is being used to spread attention across multiple brands rather than let one announcement dominate the night.
State of Play on June 2
June 2 is the date readers should circle if they care about the next phase of Sony's game slate. Henderson's report points to a focused reveal rather than a full surprise dump, and the presence of four named games means the show is already carrying enough weight to reward anyone watching live at 5:00pm ET.
