Sony opened pre-orders for the God of War Laufey Collector Box on October 13, 2026, at $149.99 in the US, and the box does not include the game. PlayStation Spain announced the pre-orders on X that morning, and the PlayStation Direct listing says it plainly: “God of War Laufey game sold separately.”
The Details
Per PlayStation Direct, the box holds three items:
- A light-up resin statue of Faye, “capturing her lethal agility in action”
- A 51-card Oracle Deck, with illustrations whose meanings are “inspired by Faye’s journey”
- A Mini Artbook of concept art “curated by the development team”
It costs $149.99 in the US, £129.99 in the UK and €149.99 in Spain. Sony’s US and UK listings both date it to February 16, 2027, the day the game launches, and all three listings cap it at one per order “due to high demand.” The contents list includes no disc and no download code.
God of War Laufey is Santa Monica Studio’s next PS5 game, following Faye, Kratos’s wife and Atreus’s mother, after her death. The game itself is a separate purchase: the PlayStation Store lists the Standard Edition at $69.99 and the Digital Deluxe Edition at $79.99, with a $10 upgrade from Standard to Deluxe.
What This Means for Players
Treat this as a collectible, not an edition. Buying the box and the Standard Edition together comes to $219.98 before tax, and the box alone gets you nothing to play on launch day. Rockstar took the same approach last month: GTA VI’s $399.99 collector’s box also ships without the game. If you only want the game, our pre-order story breaks down the pre-order bonus and everything in the Digital Deluxe Edition.
There is one overlap worth knowing. The Digital Deluxe Edition already includes a digital mini artbook, and the Collector Box adds a printed one; Sony has not said whether the two share content. Neither the statue nor the Oracle Deck appears in either edition of the game.
Laufey is still four months out, so there is time to catch up on the series. God of War and God of War II both feature in our best PS2 games, Chains of Olympus appears in our best PSP games, and our upcoming game releases list tracks Laufey alongside every other big launch.
