Sony Santa Monica stole the show at last night's State of Play with 20 minutes of gameplay footage from the newly announced God of War Laufey, the next installment in the studio's reboot series. The not-prequel stars a brand new protagonist in Kratos's second wife and Atreus's mother, Faye, and her distinctly agile move set was put on full display toward the end of the showcase, revealing a huge contrast with Kratos's brawny, lumbering movement.
In a 'meet the cast' video accompanying God of War Laufey's announcement, Faye actor Deborah Ann Woll compares the two protagonists' very different playstyle's, describing Kratos as "a heavy hitter" and Laufey as "acrobatic."
