God of War: Ragnarok might not have an official title just yet, however there’s one thing players can be rather confident about: a release date. The highly anticipated sequel to 2018’s Game of the Year is drawing a great deal of buzz, particularly for those that payed close attention to the story in the first.
God of War: Ragnarok includes a release date of 2021. Unfortunately, there’s no release window and surely no hard date just yet. There’s no knowing whether it is planned to come out in Q3 or Q4, however, it’s probably a safe bet to assume it is not coming out in the first half of the year.
Given the year that was 2020, along with the continuing global pandemic, we may find ourselves in a predicament where God of War: Ragnarok is delayed. It would not be unusual, especially given how a lot of programmers are working remotely, which invariably makes game development a challenging process.
God of War: Ragnarok was originally declared during a PlayStation 5 Showcase. Not much was really shown the teaser shows little more than runes using a voice (presumably Kratos) telling us that the moment draws near and we have to prepare. The teaser concludes with the phrase”Ragnarok is coming” and the aforementioned date: 2021.
As for what we may expect story-wise from God of War: Ragnarok, it’s all in the title. Ragnarok is a Norse mythology occasion involving the end of the world in the form of the death of gods, natural disasters, and the world is covered in water. But due to the activities of Kratos throughout 2018’s God of War, events may not happen exactly as intended. Plus, there is the after-credits sequence in which a certain someone shows up to have a friendly conversation with Kratos.
While not much is known about God of War: Ragnarok’s launch date, aside from the fact it is in 2021, gamers know what important events will likely happen in the sport. Make sure you check back with us as we update this once an exact release date is declared.
