A God of War live service game has just been killed by Sony, along with another live game from another studio.

Sony PlayStation have not been shy since former head Jim Ryan’s departure to make tough decisions on their upcoming games. After the disastrous launch of Concord in 2024, they will be keen to avoid such poor launches in the future.

Since then, Sony has launched Helldivers 2, launched and shut down Concord, canceled a The Last of Us multiplayer game, and reportedly canceled an online Spider-Man game called The Great Web. Bungie is currently prepping its extraction shooter Marathon for expanded playtests in 2025.

PlayStation's entry into the live-service market has been rocky at best, last year scoring a big win with Helldivers 2 while also suffering a setback with the shockingly abrupt shutdown of the online first-person shooter Concord, which resulted in the closure of developer Firewalk Studios.

While the older God of War games are some of the best that PlayStation has to offer, no one would blame you for not enjoying them, as they are somewhat dated. There's an alternative order that can ease you into the God of War universe: playing the Norse Saga before the Greek Saga.

Sony is said to be cancelling two PlayStation live service projects, and one of them is a live service God of War game.

The two US-based Sony subsidiaries working on the now-cancelled games are not shutting down, though it's unclear if anyone will be laid off.

Questions about Sony’s live-service plans continue to mount. The company confirmed two games were canceled at Bend Studio and Bluepoint Games, responding to a report by Bloomberg that the PlayStation 5 maker had canned two projects that were part of the company’s ongoing multiplayer push.
