God of War Ragnarok Release Set for November
The Summer Game Fest 20022 has ended. While many games showed new trailers and gameplay for potential players to enjoy, one title that was rumoured to have made an appearance on yesterday’s broadcast was not.
Players were eager to learn more about God of War Ragnarok and wondered if it was still scheduled for release this year. They may now have the answer thanks to a updated report from Bloomberg.
Jason Schreier reports that November is the expected release date for the game, “according to three people who are familiar with its development.” He also mentions that a concrete release date might be announced “later in the month.”
God of War Ragnarok’s Summer Game Fest Absence Might not Stop It Arriving in 2022
This report suggests that the September-October release window implied in some of the most recent merchandise listings may have been indicative of Sony’s plans before an internal delay.
Summer Game Fest was just the beginning of speculation. Another find added fuel to the fire. This was a supposed update to God of War Ragnarok’s page on the PlayStation Store.
Some players assumed the game would be featured in the Summer Game Fest presentation. A similar change to Final Fantasy XVI’s page before it appeared in PlayStation’s State of Play showcase was cited by some as a reason why the same could happen for God of War.
Schreier also made this expectation based on ResetEra’s comments. He said that sources had told him that the game wasn’t delayed and would still be released in 2022.
These two factors combined led Reddit users and others to believe that an announcement about a release date was imminent. DarkDaniel_01 said: “Finally. If there aren’t any serious development issues, it will only take a few weeks before the announcement is made.
