#NEW GOD OF WAR UPDATE#

Though the peak summer and holiday periods are the most likely launch windows, September isnвЂ™t out of the question - and it also leaves some wiggle room for the game to have a three-month delay and still make 2022.Д«ack in June 2021, Head of PlayStation Studios Herman Hulst revealed in a PlayStation blog interview that the game has been delayed until 2022. However, those games also launched in June and July. In some ways, the date makes sense - September 30 is a Friday, and past major PS exclusives like Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart and Ghost of Tsushima also released on a Friday. ItвЂ™s not clear what вЂњdatabaseвЂќ the account refers to, and the tweet hedges its bets by acknowledging it could be a placeholder. The latest news comes from December 27, 2021, when a Twitter account known as PlayStation Game Size claimed to have spotted a database listing for the game that specified a Septemrelease date. We donвЂ™t have an official release date for God of War: Ragnarok. 'You're really exhausted at the end of finishing one of these things,' Barlog said, 'so you've gotta con someone else into doing it, like him.Kratos and Atreus will continue their adventure in 'God of War: Ragnarok.' Sony Santa Monica When is the God of War: Ragnarok release date? Williams mentioned that each game has historically had a different director, with Barlog the only one doing two installments. Williams has worked on every God of War title so far, so he seems a logical choice for the job.

We did learn in a post-show interview that Eric Williams, a longtime Santa Monica Studio veteran will be directing God of War RagnarГ¶k, rather than Cory Barlog, who helmed the 2018 title. Sony unfortunately didn't have a release date to share a year ago, the company said God of War RagnarГ¶k would arrive in 2021, but the blog post said 'see you next year' at its end. But the familiar boat returns, as does the disembodied head Mimir, so get ready for more story time and cutting remarks about Kratos' perpetually grumpy mood. Unsurprisingly, the game looks fantastic, with a variety of new environments and enemies as well as more ways to use Kratos' Leviathan Axe and Blades of Chaos. Particularly intriguing is the news that veteran actor Richard Schiff ( The West Wing) will play Odin, king of the Norse gods. We only saw brief teases of each character, but both characters have lost family to Kratos and Atreus, and they seem about as thirsty for revenge as Kratos used to be when he was a Greek god.

As noted in an extensive blog post about the new game, a lot of the conflict seems to come from Atreus trying to understand what his now-dead mother wanted for him, after it was revealed he was part-giant at the end of the first game. But he's definitely fighting it, while Atreus sounds like the one who is more convinced that full-on war is necessary here.

His son, Atreus, looks like he's grown up in the last few years, and he's challenging his dear old dad's decisions as well as proving to be a more capable fighter.ДЄs for the game's story, it looks to be setting up a conflict with the Norse pantheon of gods - just as Kratos destroyed all of the Greek gods in the first trilogy of games, he might be on that path again here. As expected, it look like God of War, with the familiar dual-weapon wielding that Kratos excelled at in the 2018 game. It's been about a year since Sony first said that God of War RagnarГ¶k was officially on its way, and today we're finally getting our first look at the game.
