A publication in this year of grace in 2021 seemed impossible and, to be honest, would have surprised us. Hulst finally cleared it up by posting this on the PlayStation blog
Regarding God of War, the project started a little late. So we decided to postpone the game until next year. to make sure Santa Monica can publish an awesome God War game.
The former head of Guerrilla goes on by pointing out that the title, like Horizon Forbidden West or Gran Turismo 7, will also appear on PlayStation 4. It takes more time now.
This was confirmed by Santa Monica Studio, which has since spoken on Twitter:

Since the teaser for the upcoming God of War last year, we’ve been overwhelmed by the love our community has shown us. We are very grateful that so many are excited to discover the next chapter on Kratos and Atreus’ journey.
We continue to focus on delivering a quality experience while ensuring the safety and wellbeing of our team, our creative partners, and our families. For this reason we decided to postpone the release to 2022.
We must therefore wait until 2022 for Kratos and Atreus to return to our beautiful regions. But you can still (re) discover God of War on PS4. It is worth it ..
