Sony Santa Monica, the developer for 2018's God of War and its upcoming sequel, has posted a new job listing for a lead writer to work on a new unannounced title.
This being an unannounced title likely means the developer is working on a second title that isn't the God of War sequel.
"We are seeking a Lead Writer for the development of a new unannounced title!" reads the job listing. "If you love collaborating with talented developers to create genre defining games, join us as we embark on a new journey.
"The ideal candidate has a mastery of storytelling, and deeply understands the marriage between gameplay and narrative. This individual will be responsible for crafting powerful storylines, strong character arcs, and compelling dialogue, while maintaining an equal focus on building and developing the writing team."

SSM, ND, GG, all these studios have extremily strong basis and, most likely, have the leadership and talents to build 2 teams capable of building Goty contender level games. I'm happy to see Playstation is expanding their studios in such "organic way", making what they already have better.
woah expanding to two teams now sanna munica studios?! can they do it?!
They used to have an external team that helped indie developers, like Thatgamecompany and Ready at Dawn, make their debut games, but I assume this team has bigger ambitions than just a support team.
My guess would be:
Team 1 - God of War sequel directed by Eric Williams
