Sony closed its State of Play February 2026 event with one of its biggest announcements. Santa Monica Studio revealed that the original God of War Greek trilogy is being fully remade, bringing Kratos’ early story back for modern platforms.
This announcement was part of the franchise’s 20th-anniversary celebration, giving fans a chance to revisit the origins of Kratos and his battles in Greek mythology.
Release Date and Platforms
At the moment, the God of War Trilogy Remake does not have a release window. The project is still in early development, which was confirmed by Terrence C. Carson, the original voice of Kratos in the Greek-era games.
While platforms have not been officially confirmed, the remake is expected to launch on PlayStation 5, considering Sony’s focus on first-party exclusives. A PC release may follow later, in line with Sony’s recent strategy of bringing major titles to PC after launch.
What the Remake Includes
The project will revisit the original trilogy:
- God of War (2005)
- God of War II
- God of War III
Although these games received HD remasters in the past, this remake is expected to be a complete rebuild, not just a visual upgrade.
So far, only a short teaser has been shown, featuring the logo and a message from TC Carson. No gameplay footage has been revealed yet.
What Could Change in the Remake
Since development is still in its early stages, gameplay details are limited. However, the remake will likely include:
- Modern graphics and visual upgrades
- Updated combat systems
- Improved level design
The original games were known for fixed camera angles and fast, combo-based combat. It is still unclear whether the remake will keep that style or adopt the over-the-shoulder perspective introduced in the 2018 God of War.
Santa Monica Studio has said this remake is one of the most requested projects from fans and has asked players to be patient while development continues.
Expected Price
Sony has not announced pricing yet, but based on previous first-party remakes, the God of War Trilogy Remake could launch at around $69.99 on PS5.
Since this is expected to be a full remake of the three games, there is also a possibility of a bundled package. A slightly lower price could be considered, but that remains speculation for now.
God of War: Sons of Sparta Available Now
Alongside the remake announcement, Sony also released God of War: Sons of Sparta, a new title available now.
While details about the game are limited, it adds to the expanding God of War universe and gives fans something new to explore while waiting for the trilogy remake.
Conclusion
The return of the Greek saga marks a major moment for the God of War series. With a full remake of the original trilogy in development, Kratos’ journey through Olympus is set to be rebuilt for a new generation.
Although it may take time before more details are revealed, one thing is clear—Kratos is not done with the gods of Olympus yet.
