Santa Monica Studio most recently released the 2018 reboot God of War to widespread critical and commercial success. Fans already know that the developer is working on a sequel to that game. Commonly known as Ragnarok within the industry, the second entry in the new series is set to launch on PlayStation 5 at some point in 2021.

However, this second unannounced project was completely unknown until Tuesday when Santa Monica Studio confirmed its existence. Unfortunately, the company has not released any more details about the game or how far along it is in terms of development.

It is unusual for Sony’s first-party developers to work on more than one title at a time, suggesting that this new project might still be in early stages or that the God of War sequel is nearing the end stages of its development.
