Pre-orders ahead of launch

In a post labeled for Southeast Asia, PlayStation Blog says God of War Laufey is available to pre-order through PlayStation Store and participating retailers. The announcement concerns advance purchases: the post says the game’s PlayStation 5 release is scheduled for February 16, 2027. For prospective buyers, the immediate change is the opening of orders, accompanied by details of the pre-order rewards and Digital Deluxe Edition.

The blog says purchases made before launch include the Last Wish Armor Set, a cosmetic Golden Leaves appearance for Phranque and an in-game resource pack. These are presented as pre-order bonuses, giving buyers a separate set of included items to consider alongside the contents of their chosen edition.

Edition contents and reward access

According to the post, the Digital Deluxe Edition includes Dark Alchemy armor, Blade, Bow Scales and Catalyst items, together with an in-game resource pack. Its digital extras are a mini artbook and the official soundtrack. The announcement therefore describes both in-game equipment and accompanying art and music among the edition’s contents.

The post attaches access conditions to the rewards: items marked with an asterisk must be unlocked through story progression. It also says the physical Standard Edition’s pre-order bonus is supplied through a download code, with an internet connection and a PlayStation account required. Those conditions matter when assessing how the advertised extras become available.

The bow’s controls and customization

The announcement also describes how Faye’s Serpent Bow operates. According to the blog, fully pressing the aim trigger lets players charge a volley containing as many as five arrows. A half press instead selects a mobile hip-fire stance that releases a cluster of arrows at close range, giving the weapon two documented aiming modes.

Customization extends to the bow’s Scales, which the post says alter its appearance and provide a distinctive gameplay perk. It names the Digital Deluxe Edition’s Dark Alchemy Bow Scales as an example. The blog also describes unlockable bow skills that expand Faye’s capabilities, making equipment selection and skill unlocks part of the announced combat system.
