God of War Trilogy Remake Teased at State of Play, While God of War Sons of Sparta Launches Today on PS5
Kratos has been quiet since God of War Ragnarok, and it may still be a while before Sony Santa Monica is ready to show the next chapter of the Norse saga. That said, the February 12, 2026 State of Play closed with a surprise that immediately reframed the roadmap for long time fans. A God of War Trilogy Remake is now in development, aiming to modernize the original Greek Saga trilogy and bring Kratos at his most ruthless into a new generation of hardware.
The reveal arrived with a brief teaser trailer and very limited detail, but one key confirmation adds serious weight to the project. TC Carson, the original voice of Kratos, is set to reprise the role for the remake, and he has indicated the project is still early in development. If that is accurate, the next major update will likely be the first proper look at gameplay or in engine footage rather than another short tease.
While the trilogy remake is still a longer term play, Sony also delivered something immediate to keep the God of War conversation moving. God of War Sons of Sparta is out now on PlayStation 5, positioned as a new story set earlier in Kratos’ life. The project has been rumored for a while and has finally materialized as a 2.5D action platformer with Metroidvania structure, designed to offer a compact, progression driven experience that still leans into classic brutality.
Sons of Sparta is available today on PS5 for 29.99$, 29.99€, 24.99£, and ¥3480. According to the official PlayStation Blog, TC Carson returns here as well, reprising his role for the first time in over a decade as the adult Kratos and serving as the story’s narrator. The blog also outlines the core combat pillars, including spear and shield play, plus divine artifacts referred to as the Gifts of Olympus. Mega Cat Studios is credited with bringing hand drawn pixel animation to iconic classics recreated in 2D while also introducing new creatures inspired by lesser explored corners of Greek mythology.
From a strategic point of view, the pairing makes sense. The trilogy remake is the premium long runway bet that can re establish the Greek Saga with modern production values and renewed mainstream visibility. Sons of Sparta is the faster content beat designed to keep fans engaged right now, while also testing appetite for Greek era storytelling and combat language. If Sons of Sparta lands well, it becomes an easy win for community sentiment while giving Sony more breathing room to take the trilogy remake to the level of polish it needs.
Which direction has you more excited, a full modern remake of the Greek Saga trilogy, or a tighter 2D focused spin off like Sons of Sparta that explores Kratos’ past in a different format?
