God of War Laufey reaction

Redditors in the PS5 Subreddit have been reacting to the God of War Laufey reveal.

Grill_Enthusiast said: "It's not as fast-paced as the DMC rumors were making it sound like. More of a mix between the new God of War games and the OG trilogy in combat speed. I'm very glad it's not a prequel though. A brand new setting, happening simultaneously with Kratos' and Atreus' story is the right play.

"I'm not sure how I feel about Phranque the talking cube and some of the dialogue yet but I'll keep an open mind. It's not like Mimir was instantly loveable either. Also we're finally going to find out who blew the horn in 2018 lmao."

PomegranateHelpful13 said: "This feels like a huge expansion of the lore, I wonder how much Kratos is going to be featured."

valarpizzaeris said: "As a Daredevil fan I'm sooo f****** happy for Deborah Ann Woll!!! She deserves all the flowers!"

FreemanCalavera said: "JUMP BUTTON CONFIRMED, I CAN DIE A HAPPY MAN."

Ohnezone said: "I always felt like Ragnarok should have been split into two games but now I know why. This is probably the end of this trilogy."

State of Play reaction

In the PS5 Subreddit, gamers have been reacting to what they've seen during PlayStation State of Play.

Ohnezone said: "The cube is great, y'all just hate fun. I'm willing to bet there is more to him."

Jagajox said: "It's crazy to me that God of War got 20 minutes of gameplay in its ANNOUNCEMENT and Intergalactic still has nothing 18 months after its initial trailer. Santa Monica released Ragnarok in 2022. Naughty Dog just takes way too long to make their games man."

kmank2l13 said: "Afterlife of the Gods is a great way to tie all these different Gods together. Wonder if we'll see some Greek Gods."

idkimhereforthememes said: "Intergalactic development is in the pits of Tartarus."

appoxplayer95 said: "No way! A new Stuntman in the year of our lord 2026!?"

FULL STORY: I've played Rayman Legends Retold

It's been an astonishing 13 years since the last mainline entry in an iconic gaming series - and no, I'm not talking about Rockstar Games' Grand Theft Auto franchise.

I'm on about Ubisoft's popular mascot Rayman. He's not had his own mainline game since Rayman Legends released back in 2013.

But he's now back as Ubisoft is revisiting and reimagining the classic platformer, this time entirely built in 3D which plays as a 2.5D platformer, with Rayman Legends Retold.

There's a new story, fully voiced cinematics, a new villain, a sixth realm and new levels on top of what was already in the original.

I've been hands on with the first few levels of Rayman Legends Retold and although there are loads of new elements to a platforming classic, it still feels like a familiar Rayman game - which is a very good thing.

And that concludes the June 2026 edition of PlayStation State of Play.

But don't go anywhere as we'll have a comprehensive roundup of all the announcements, plus reaction from what people have been saying about it all online.

Don't go anywhere just yet!

More on God of War game starring Faye

The video shows Faye waking up in what looks like the heavens and navigating her way through a hauntingly beautiful setting. There are old, stone buildings which are overgrown.

Deadly plants try to kill Faye and early signs of the classic God of War combat is shown in full swing as Faye wields a sword against plant enemies that actually have limbs and bodies like humans.

She's joined by a colourful companion and gets armour from those who have seemingly fallen in battle. Like more recent God of War games, the camera does not cut and it's all done in one continuous take.

Faye has to ascend through a tower with overgrown paths having to be cut down.

Two supernatural guards then jump Faye and she's dragged through a settlement before using magic to try to escape - to no avail.

Something is taken from Faye's hand before she is beaten by a huge red enemy. What seems to be the female leader of a tribe stops Faye from being beaten further before she summons a huge creature to deal with a different problem.

Faye is then locked in a cage and is unable to escape, joined by a sword with ribbons in what looks like a cube of jelly.

They're in the afterlife of the Gods. Faye then learns to harness her power in this world with Kartos' words of "find your way home" ringing in her ears.

She then explodes the cask that is keeping her new companions (the sword, ribbons and cube, if you were wondering) hostage before she sees Kratos offering a hand to her - but he disappears. It seems Kratos will haunt Faye throughout this journey.

The settlement Faye is in is now ablaze because of her efforts and her new companions help her take out an enemy. She wields the sword and her magical abilities and then takes on enemies that dare to confront her.

Now the God of War combat is in full swing.

Faye can pull off some pretty incredible combos and she manages to free another human before that huge red creature comes back to try and take Faye on.

Enter a boss battle.

The cube helps with attacks and the red creature has a lot of deadly fire attacks that need to be dodged and parried as well as taking advantage of any openings. Combat is heavy but Faye's movement does look a bit lighter than Kratos.

God of War Laufey is coming to PS5 and is currently in development.

New God of War game

Santa Monica Studio's logo has just come up at the start of a video with 20 minutes of uninterrupted gameplay.

It shows Kratos and Atreus laying Faye to rest, like at the start of the first God of War game, sparking speculation it's a remaster or remake.

But it then shows Faye waking up! Here we go!

Until Dawn 2

There's a first look at Until Dawn 2 where a group of ghost hunters who fake their content come face-to-face with real horrors.

It's set on Akishina Island and shows a group of young people enjoying life on the island.

A facility on the island has been shut down for decades and it seems they've gone to explore while trying to enjoy an idyllic island getaway.

But it all turns when they're being hunted. Players will have choices in how the game plays out.

That's out in 2027.

PS Plus update

• Runescape: Dragonwilds is coming to PS5 and day one on PS Plus later in 2026.
• Gitaroo Man is coming to Premium in June.
• Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy is available on Premium in July.
• Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams will be also be available on Premium in August.
  

Marathon Season 2

A new Marathon trailer showing Night Marsh to tie in with the start of Season 2 is being shown. Gameplay is giving much more of a survival horror vibe at night.

Season 2 is free-to-play until 9 June and can be downloaded right now.

Control Resonant

There's a new trailer for Remedy's Control Resonant.

The supernatural action adventure game looks to have much more of a horror element to it this time around.

The game is set in Manhattan and Dylan Faden, the brother os Jesse who also features, was locked up by the FBC before finding escape with The Hiss.

That releases on 24 September.

Ill

Another first-person survival horror, Ill, is up next. The main character wakes up from a coma and is tasked with surviving against a lot of deadly creatures.

The gameplay is brutal, bloody and very violent.

That's out in 2027 and is available to Wishlist.

Stuntman Hollywood

Saber is up next with a high-octane street stunt racing game featuring loads of cool stunts and classic cars.

Players take on the role of a stuntman. That's available to Wishlist.

Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve

There's a new trailer for Bandai Namco's upcoming Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve.

Players take on the role of pilot Rex who protects the skies from deadly threats.

There looks to be a fairly deep story behind this too with politics and character development playing a crucial role.

That releases on 2 October with Early Access on 29 September.

The game will also include Ace Combat Zero: The Belkan War as a pre-order bonus.

Silent Hill Townfall

As predicted, Silent Hill Townfall has a new, harrowing trailer.

This game is in first-person and shows a man having to silently avoid ghastly enemies, seemingly with no weapons.

That's out on 24 September.

Onimusha Way of the Sword

There's a new trailer for Onimusha Way of the Sword showing new story elements and gameplay.

Frantic samurai combat is shown and that has a release date of 25 September. There are pre-order bonuses too.

A demo is out today for players to try the game for themselves.

This one is highly anticipated and the latest teaser trailer for Phantom Blade Zero showing fast, frantic gameplay is showing why.

It's only a tease for now but a gameplay and story deep dive is coming later in the Summer.

The Lost Wild

What looks to be a first-person survival horror take on Jurassic Park is shown .

The Lost Wild is out in 2027 and is available to Wishlist.

Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis

Here we go, a new trailer for Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis.

It shows a beautiful reimagining of some of the classic Tomb Raider levels and gameplay fans can look forward to.

That's out on 12 February 2027, a delay from 2026.

Kemuri

There's a high-octane anime trailer showing 3D fighting and platforming challenges where players take on the role of a yokai hunter.

The game supports up to three-player co-op as players can team up and fight. There are three different roles - a katana hunter, bow hunter and shaman.

That's releasing in 2027 and is available to Wishlist.

Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls

There's a new trailer for Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls.

Doctor Doom leads Knights of Doom against the likes of Magneto. Green Goblin and Venom also feature in this 2.5D fighting game, along with Spider-Man.

That's out on 6 August on PS5 and PC.

Marvel's Wolverine

As expected, Marvel's Wolverine is up first. Wolverine is in a race against time to rescue kidnapped mutants - but he's not the only mutant trying to save them.

A look at gameplay shows Wolverine on top of a building before jumping down and viciously taking out mercenaries with his claws, with blood spilling quickly and all over the place.

Fans of gore are going to absolutely love this. Wolverine can also tear limbs off his enemies.

Gameplay shows Wolverine chaining attacks, with timed dodges, blocks and parries key. He also has a feral mode.

Wolverine then chases after a getaway vehicle on a motorbike, which it looks like players will control. He then fights foes on top of heavily armored trucks transporting the mutants away.

It looks, fast, frantic and very bloody.

He then defeats a boss before cutting down logs off a truck to stop oncoming vehicles before then rescuing the mutants, taking on another wave of enemies.

Jean Gray, Mystique and Sabretooth will feature.

A release date of 15 September is once again confirmed and pre-orders will open once State of Play has concluded.

Here we go

PlayStation State of Play is underway.

Strap in...

ICYMI: What will be announced at PlayStation State of Play June 2026?

PlayStation has confirmed there will be "an extended look at Marvel's Wolverine". This will "show off Logan's brutal and relentless combat along with some new details". There will be more from "top studios around the world" too but what else could be announced?

From here on in, this is all speculation, but renowned industry insider NateTheHate has given his verdict on what may be shown.

He was asked if we will "see other exclusives at the coming State of Play or just the new God of War and Wolverine" and he replied: "Yes."

There is speculation about a God of War spinoff being in the works so if NateTheHate is correct, there could be a first look at this if it proves to be true.

Another major first-party title PlayStation has on the (admittedly distant) horizon is Naughty Dog's Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet. It's been a while since we heard anything official about this so something may be shared to keep players intrigued.

Housemarque has just released Saros but there might be a look at further updates on the title - if anything is planned. There could be news on Horizon Hunters Gathering or Horizon Steel Frontiers.

Marathon Season 2 starts on Tuesday (2 June) too and with Bungie being owned by PlayStation, there is likely to be a new look at this.

Looking at PS5 exclusives, there might be updates on Phantom Blade Zero, currently slated to release on 8 September, and Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls releasing 6 August.

Away from first-party titles, Hogwarts Legacy 2 has been rumoured for a while and if it is in development, this could be a great time to show it off to the world for the first time.

Embracer Group recently confirmed Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis is still on track to release in 2026 so there may be a new trailer or look at gameplay for this. Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced releases in July and there might be a new trailer for this.

Other games that have appeared at previous State of Play events that could get updates again here are Control Resonant, Star Wars: Galactic Racer, John Wick and Castlevania: Belmont's Curse.

There is a very, very outside chance there could be something Grand Theft Auto 6 related. Rockstar Games usually does its own marketing but if rumours PlayStation has secured the console marketing rights for GTA 6 prove to be true, then the game could feature, perhaps with news about GTA 6 PS5 console bundles.

30 minutes to go

There's just 30 minutes until PlayStation State of Play gets underway.

You're already in the right place so keep it locked for all the latest.

Fans calling for Destiny 3

As fans wait ahead of the State of Play event starting, in the comments on the English version being streamed on PlayStation's YouTube channel, a lot of people are calling for Destiny 3.

There have been a number of different people frequently commenting with '#WeWantDestiny3'.

This comes after Bungie confirmed it is ending active development of Destiny 2 with a bumper final update called Moment of Triumph releasing on 9 June.

But then - that's it.

Silent Hill: Townfall ESRB rating

Ahead of PlayStation State of Play, an ESRB rating has gone live for Silent Hill: Townfall, sparking speculation there is likely to be something shown about the game during the event.

The summary said: "Silent Hill: Townfall is rated M for Mature 17+ by the ESRB with Blood, Strong Language and Violence.

"This is a survival-horror game in which players attempt to escape from a fictional island town in Scotland. From a first-person perspective, players explore locations, solve puzzles and use various weapons (eg pistols, shotguns, axes) to defend against hostile creatures.

"Mutated creatures sometimes appear out of nowhere, lunging at players' character (i.e, jumpscares). Combat is highlighted by realistic gunfire and large blood-splatter effects, which can stain the surrounding area.

"Cutscenes include additional instances of violence and blood: a close-up depiction of a character stabbing a body; a man being eaten by a monster. The word 'f***' is heard in the game."

One hour to go

There's just one hour to go until PlayStation State of Play gets underway.

FULL STORY: Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis release date, price and pre-orders 'revealed'

It seems a release date delay for Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis, its price and pre-order details may have accidentally been 'revealed' by Amazon.

Wario64 claims to have spotted Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis Steam codes go up for pre-order on the site, with two different editions. It was also claimed the game will release on 10 February 2027, delayed from its initial release window of 2026.

A standard edition of the game is understood to cost $59.99 with a deluxe edition costing $69.99. The deluxe edition is said to come with 48-hour early access and an early unlock of the 'Parisian Outfit' with post-launch DLC available at no extra cost too.

Pre-orders of any edition of the game are understood to have a 'Survivor Outfit' early unlock. The listings containing these claimed details have since been taken down.

At the time of writing, Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis' specific release date, pricing and pre-order details have not been officially confirmed.

FULL STORY: Marathon Season 2 starts with free-to-play week - how to download and play

Marathon Season 2 has started and to mark its launch, the extraction shooter will be free-to-play for a week. Here's everything you need to know and how you can download it.

Bungie's Marathon will be free-to-play until 9 June on PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC via Steam. To download it, visit the relevant store page for the game and it should appear as a free download for a limited time.

It's not a free download to keep forever though - to carry on playing Marathon after 9 June, if you haven't already, you'll need to purchase it. Any progress will be carried over.

To find out what's new in Season 2, read the full story here.

FULL STORY: New Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis screenshots posted by PlayStation

Brand new screenshots for Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis have been shared on game's listing on the PS Store.

Spotted and posted by a number of accounts across social media, the game's page (which has been checked by Indy100) shows five brand new screenshots from Legacy of Atlantis.

All five of them show Lara Croft in action in different settings, either dual wielding her pistols, taking in the stunning settings before her, solving puzzles, platforming or taking on dinosaurs.

Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis could appear at the upcoming PlayStation State of Play and news of more content or a specific release date could tie in with this - however this is speculation at the time of writing.

Read the full story here.

FULL STORY: Marvel's Wolverine pre-orders to start 'imminently'

A streamer claims to have found out when Marvel's Wolverine pre-orders are expected to start ahead of the game starring at the upcoming PlayStation State of Play.

Insomniac Games has previously confirmed Marvel's Wolverine will release on 15 September.

And streamer PyroMid claims "pre-orders open up on 2 June after State of Play".

In the comments, PyroMid added: "If it wasn't going live, Gamestop wouldn't put the poster up is what store manager told me."
