According to a translation of the report, Sony revealed at this week's Interactive and Digital Entertainment Festival in Paris that the first God of War III details and trailer will arrive "as early as next July." E3 2008 is scheduled for July 15 through 17.

The last official mention of the latest entry in Sony's deity-slaughtering action series accompanied the release of Ready at Dawn's God of War: Chains of Olympus, with an ad describing a PS3 edition of the series as "coming soon."
