Whispers of a new, unannounced project from Santa Monica Studio, the minds behind God of War, are circulating. A recent update from a key developer sheds light on this intriguing possibility.
Glauco Longhi, a veteran character artist and developer, Hints at a New IP
A Sci-Fi Setting?
Glauco Longhi, returning to Santa Monica Studio earlier this year, revealed on his LinkedIn profile that he's overseeing character development for an "unannounced project." His previous work includes significant contributions to God of War (2018) and God of War Ragnarök. His profile states he's "Supervising/Directing Character development on an unannounced project, and also helping the studio to continually push and raise the bar on Character Development for videogames."
Adding fuel to the fire, Cory Barlog, creative director of the 2018 God of War reboot, previously indicated the studio was working on multiple projects. Longhi's LinkedIn profile also confirms Santa Monica Studio's recent recruitment efforts, including searches for a character artist and tools programmer—suggesting a growing team and active development.
Speculation points towards a new sci-fi IP, potentially helmed by God of War 3's creative director, Stig Asmussen. However, Sony's recent trademark of "Intergalactic The Heretic Prophet," while intriguing, remains unconfirmed as related to this project. Past rumors of a cancelled PS4 sci-fi title from the studio further fuel the ongoing speculation.
