Report Claims God of War Ragnarok Is Being “planned for November” 

The past week was a nerve-racking one for God of War Ragnarok fans. Much to enthusiasts’ dismay, Geoff Keighley’s Summer Game Fest came and went without even mentioning God of War Ragnarok. 

But what kicked up a tremendous fuss was a change in the PS database that shifted Ragnarok’s internal release date to December 31 from September 30.  

While December 31 was still a placeholder date, many pessimistic fans took it as a sign that Kratos’ next adventure had been delayed out of this year and started losing sleep over it.

However, it seems all the suspicions surrounding Ragnarok’s potential postponement to 2023 were premature, as a new report claims that the upcoming action-adventure is on track for this year. 

According to the three sources of Jason Schreier at Bloomberg, God of Ragnarok is on schedule for a November 2022 launch. The reporter further added that as per two of his informants, Sony and Santa Monica could announce the game’s exact release date later in the month of June. 

After announcing the game in 2020, Sony has delayed it many times. Schreier claims that at the beginning of this year, developers were internally aiming to roll the game out at some point in September but faced a few setbacks that couldn’t make it possible.  

Thankfully, these hindrances were not significant enough to thrust Ragnarok out of 2022 as the studio decided to launch the game in November instead. 

Concluding his article, Schreier admitted that the game’s on track for November as of this week but also wasted no time in reminding readers to take the information with a pinch of salt.

No dates are certain in the turbulent world of game development, and it may still be delayed again.

Therefore, fans can only hope for the developer to not be faced with any more challenges, or there’s a chance that the successor to highly-acclaimed 2018’s GoW will meet yet another delay.
