God of War Laufey preorders commence on September 29, allowing players to secure physical and digital copies, as well as exclusive in-game rewards. By reserving any edition of the game before launch, players will receive a downloadable preorder pack containing the Last Wish Armor Set, Phranque Golden Leaves Appearance cosmetic, and an in-game resource pack to expedite their adventure. Although these items are obtainable through regular gameplay, preordering grants early access.

For those seeking additional gear, the Digital Deluxe Edition includes the Dark Alchemy Gear, featuring the Dark Alchemy Armor Set, Dark Alchemy Blade, Dark Alchemy Bow Scales, and Dark Alchemy Catalyst. The Digital Deluxe Edition also comes with an in-game resource pack offering extra crafting materials, along with exclusive digital content such as the official God of War Laufey soundtrack and a digital mini artbook.

Santa Monica Studio has also released fresh gameplay footage highlighting Faye's new Serpent Bow. This enchanted weapon can transform into either a sniper rifle for long-range attacks or a close-quarters weapon for quick melee strikes. The bow's firing mode depends on how far the aim trigger is pulled: full-aim mode provides extra accuracy and distance, while half-aim mode allows for rapid bursts in combat.

The bow can be customized using interchangeable Scales, which alter both its appearance and gameplay attributes. Combined with interchangeable sword blades, magic-channeling Catalysts, and stat-boosting armor, Faye's kit offers a wide range of playstyle options in the realm of the Everywhere. Preorders for God of War Laufey will be available through the PlayStation Store and major retailers ahead of its February 16 release date.
