A June 2026 gaming meme around God of War: Laufey’s talking gelatinous cube sidekick Phranque (pronounced “Frank”), voiced by Jack Quaid—fans meme his D&D-style design and the trailer line “Whoop his ass, Frank.”

More about this meme

Phranque—often spelled “Frank” in memes—is a sentient gelatinous cube companion in Santa Monica Studio’s God of War: Laufey, revealed June 2, 2026 during PlayStation’s State of Play. Voiced and motion-captured by Jack Quaid, the cube helps protagonist Faye fight by body-slamming enemies, reading as a Dungeons & Dragons gelatinous cube dropped into Norse myth spectacle.

Reaction posts split instantly: some called the character Marvel-coded comic relief unfit for God of War, others embraced “Whoop his ass, Frank” fan art—@keenbiscuit’s chibi piece cleared 47,000 X likes launch night. Memes lean on pronunciation gags (Phranque = Frank), mythology confusion jokes, and debate over whether the cube belongs in the franchise at all.
