God of War Ragnarok delay rumors debunked by industry sources Sony Santa MonicaBloomberg\u2019s Jason Schreier has suggested that reports of a God of War: Ragnarok delay may be wide of the mark. Update (June 9): In a series of ResetEra posts, Bloomberg journalist Jason Schreier has noted that some firsthand and secondhand sources have suggested that there is no news about God of War: Ragnarok being delayed. \u201cIt\u2019s hard to definitely prove a negative but Someone Who Would Know Firsthand just told me they haven\u2019t heard anything about a slip to 2023, as did Someone Else Who Might Know Secondhand,\u201d Schreier writes. In a follow-up, the author also says \u201cas usual, this is not a guarantee that the game will come out in 2022 and video game development is so turbulent that you should never trust a release date until the product in question is in your hands.\u201d \u201cThis Gamereactor report appears to be false,\u201d Schreier adds, suggesting that the game could still be coming in 2022. Original story follows: Sony and developer Santa Monica Studio announced the God of War (2018) sequel during PlayStation\u2019s September 2020 games showcase. At the time, the title was set to launch in 2021. Few were surprised when the Santa Monica-based team announced plans to postpone the project\u2019s release in June 2021. Kratos actor Christopher Judge later revealed the lengthy delay was due to his need for recovery after back surgery. Finer details aside, neither Sony nor Santa Monica Studio has offered an update on the matter, despite a recent God of War Ragnarok production milestone suggesting a potential 2022 rollout. God of War Ragnarok could receive another delay A report from Gamereactor Spain claims that several \u201cEuropean sources\u201d believe God of War Ragnarok will hit PlayStation platforms sometime in 2023, as opposed to its presumed 2022 launch window. At the time of writing, Sony has yet to address the ongoing release date speculation surrounding Kratos\u2019 next adventure. The rumors won\u2019t likely slow down anytime soon, either. Gamereactor Spain\u2019s report follows on the heels of PlayStation Game Size revealing that PSN\u2019s database recently changed God of War Ragnarok\u2019s due date. \ud83d\udea8 God of War Ragnar\u00f6k Release Date Changed From September 30 To December 31 (Place-Holder) \ud83d\udfe6 Q4 \ud83e\udd14 \ud83d\udfe5 #GodofWarRagnarok #PS4 #PS5 pic.twitter.com\/bphW2w9Bda \u2014 PlayStation Game Size (@PlaystationSize) June 8, 2022 The PlayStation Network\u2019s backend previously had God of War slated for September 30, a placeholder hinting at its arrival in Q3 2022. Now the listing boasts a December 31 date, which could mean Santa Monica Studio will ship the sequel in the fourth quarter of this year. When Sony plans to finally lift the lid on its plans for God of War Ragnarok remains a mystery. But PlayStation\u2019s forthcoming involvement in Summer Game Fest could provide an answer since the event kicks off on Thursday, June 9. In the event that God of War\u2019s next entry does launch in 2023, it will be interesting to see whether or not it remains a cross-gen title for PS4 and PS5.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
