The launch window for God of War: Ragnarok might not be as long as previously thought. The marquee PS4 and PS5 game will be out in November according to sources. The release date is expected to be announced later in June by the Santa Monica studio. There don't seem to be any more worries after the debut was pushed back.
The game wouldn't be ready until next year, according to European sources. The no-shows at both the State of Play event and this week's Summer Games Fest helped fuel speculation about a lengthy delay. Since the 2020 announcement, there have been several internal and public delays due to the need for remote work, as well as the Pandemic, according to the contacts.
There is no guarantee that the new God of War will stay on course. It wouldn't be a surprise to see a November ship date. The day after American Thanksgiving in November is when game developers plan to release their biggest titles. It could be crucial for Sony's bottom line if the holiday premiere of Ragnarok is a success.
