The game was officially revealed with a Gameplay trailer during the June 2026 Sony PlayStation State of Play presentation. The lead actress in the game, Deborah Ann Woll, previously shared that this game was first pitched to her nearly 10 years ago, as she was told about it in 2018, the same year God of War launched on the Sony PlayStation 4. Nine years later, players will be able to control Kratos’ wife in her own adventure.
