Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve Brings Strangereal Back to PS5
Seven years after Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown, Project Aces is relaunching its aerial combat saga with Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve on PS5.

God of War PS5: Christopher Judge Backs New Kratos Actress
The next God of War on PS5 breaks the rules set by the series since 2018, and longtime fans are frustrated. Christopher Judge, voice and face of Kratos since God of War (2018) and God of War Ragnarök (2022), has publicly spoken out to defend the new casting and particularly Deborah Ann Woll's performance. A strong signal that reveals as much about the franchise's state as Santa Monica Studio's confidence in this shift.

Marvel's Wolverine: What Insomniac Is Really Building in Terms of Length

The Witcher 4 Getting Physical PS5 Release: CD Projekt RED Confirms
CD Projekt RED has officially weighed in on whether The Witcher 4 will have a physical version on PS5.

PS5: Sony's new TV spot ignites backlash online

This spot is no exception: online reactions reveal distrust that goes far beyond a simple advertisement.

God of War Laufey Coming February 2027, Kratos Not Far Behind
Sony Santa Monica has unveiled two major developments for the franchise: God of War: Laufey is expected in February 2027, and a new episode centered on Kratos is simultaneously in development.
