PlayStation Gamers Torn Over God Of War Dev's Next Game

"This would be a dream"

PlayStation players are torn over the next game from God of War developer Santa Monica Studio.

Earlier this week, we reported on a series of claims regarding Santa Monica Studio’s next game, which has been in development since 2022.

The rumours suggests that Santa Monica Studio could be working on a potential Jak and Daxter reboot, following a report by Jason Schreier that the developer’s next project wouldn’t be “a new IP” but for an older Sony property to make it feel fresh.

Considering this is exactly how Santa Monica Studio approached the God of War reboot from 2018, it sounds like it might be the right developer for the job.

Rumours suggest that this old IP is none other than Jak and Daxter, the platformer franchise originally created by Naughty Dog.

However, the rumours should still be taken with a pinch of salt, and PlayStation fans don’t seem to be fully on board with these reports just yet.

“Cory Barlog overhauled the GOW series into something new and fresh,” wrote one fan on Reddit. “It isn't a stretch to think Sony would pay him and his team to do the same thing to another IP.”

“This would be a dream but 1% chance it’s true,” another fan wrote in the same thread.

“Honestly this whole Schreier/Santa Monica debacle isn't going anywhere,” a third comment reads. “It's not a new IP but might feel like one? What is it's just God of War, set in the same universe, but with a new cast? I dunno, maybe ancient Egypt?

“Old IP, might feel like new since it's an Egypt game with an entirely new cast. GoW as an IP still has a lot of potential and crazy world building. This seems like a more probable explanation than Santa Monica suddenly working on another Studio's IP, considering Schreier has confirmed it's not a licensed product (so no Marvel etc).”

I guess we’ll be left waiting a couple more years until we find out what Santa Monica Studio has been cooking up. Whether that’s more God of War, a Jak and Daxter reboot, or something else entirely, it’ll be worth the wait.
