## Key points

- Sony Santa Monica confirmed God of War Laufey will release on physical disc
- Significant because PlayStation is phasing out disc production and PS6 will be digital-only
- Implies the game launches before next-gen console, appealing to physical media collectors

## Summary

Sony Santa Monica has publicly confirmed that the upcoming God of War Laufey will be available on physical disc, a notable commitment as PlayStation winds down optical disc manufacturing. The announcement carries weight because the forthcoming PS6 console is widely expected to support only digital downloads, suggesting the game must release before that hardware transition.

The confirmation benefits collectors and traditionalists who prefer owning tangible game copies, particularly as major releases like Grand Theft Auto VI move to digital-only distribution. Laufey, the third entry in the Norse-era God of War saga, will serve as a narrative bridge between 2018's original and 2022's Ragnarok, allowing fans to maintain a complete physical collection of the series.
