‘God of War: Ragnarok’ finally has a release date: November 9, 2022

God of War: Ragnarok will officially launch on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 on November 9th, 2022.

The release date was confirmed in a PlayStation Blog post alongside a brief CG trailer for the upcoming action game.

The highly anticipated sequel to 2018’s God of War was originally unveiled in September 2020 for a 2021 launch, but was later delayed to 2022. The last time we saw the game was the following September, when a full-length, in-engine trailer was shown.

Since then, there’s been speculation about when the game will actually come out, with reports indicating that it would drop in November. Some impatient fans have also been harassing some Sony Santa Monica developers to learn the release date.

On top of the release date and CG trailer, PlayStation also unveiled a few special editions for the game. You can learn more about those here.

God of War: Ragnarok could release in November: report

During Sony’s PlayStation Showcase event in 2021,  Santa Monica Studio gave us our first real look at God of War: Ragnarok. Now, after roughly nine months, a Bloomberg report suggests that the long-awaited sequel to 2018’s God of War will see an official release in November.

The title, which up until recently was rumoured to have been delayed to 2023, will release in November, and an exact date will be announced this month, says the report. Bloomberg, via information received from inside sources, suggests that the game was originally scheduled for release in September but was pushed back to November, likely due to complications of producing a big-budget title in a pandemic environment.

God of War: Ragnarok could still be delayed due to unforeseen circumstances, according to the publication, though it almost certainly is on schedule for a November release.

God of War: Ragnarok is the sequel to the 2018-released God of War that saw Kratos transition to a caring father and a wise fighter who only kills those who threaten him or stand in his way. Ragnarök doesn’t pick up where its prequel left off, however. The trailer suggests that the event of Ragnarök take place a few years after its prequel, and from what we know so far, Thor will be the main antagonist in the title.

What do you want to see from June’s gaming events?

Tech nerds know October (and September) as “Techtober,” a month full of tech events, but gaming geeks know that June is a month full of gaming keynotes.

However, as outlined in Brad Shankar’s round-up of June’s big gaming events, E3 is cancelled. Luckily, there are several events this month that will replace it.

With that in mind, this week’s community question is, what gaming news do you hope to see in June?

While we’ve already seen trailers for God of War: Ragnarok and Hogwarts Legacy, it would be great to get official release dates for both titles. My guess is that we might learn more information about the titles on June 9th during Geoff Keighley’s Summer Game Fest event.

Additionally, it would be great to see gameplay footage of Bethesda’s now-delayed Redfall. It’s likely we’ll see this info alongside information about Starfield at Xbox and Bethesda’s showcase on June 12th.

It’s been years since we’ve seen anything from Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II so hopefully, more information about this title will appear in June as well.

And while I doubt we’ll hear anything from FromSoftware, Elden Ring DLC would absolutely make this a great month for me. Oh, and last but not least, I want to learn more about the upcoming Fable reboot.

Let us know in the comments below what you’d like to see from this June’s gaming events.
