Sony Santa Monica Studio Ventures Beyond God of War with New IP

The acclaimed developers are working on their first original project since 2005, signaling a major shift for the studio.

Glauco Longhi's LinkedIn profile confirms his role as Character Supervisor on the new IP.
Santa Monica Studio's last project was God of War Ragnarok, released in 2022.
The studio has been synonymous with the God of War series for nearly two decades.
Speculation suggests the new IP could be a sci-fi game led by Cory Barlog.
This move aligns with Sony's strategy to diversify its first-party game offerings.
