However, there are still many who believe Sony will stick with November 2022. And they might soon host another showcase even to announce the much-awaited game.

What is God of War Ragnarok about?

God of War Ragnarok is a direct sequel to the 2018 game. The events of the upcoming game take place three years after the last God of War game. The end of the world, Ragnarok, is nearing so Kratos and his son Atreus sets on a journey to prevent it.

Further, the father-son duo is also seeking answers behind Atreus’s other name Loki, revealed in the 2018 game.

On this journey to prevent Ragnarok, Kratos and Atreus will also seek help from the Norse God of War Tyr. While on this grand adventure, the Greek God of War and his son have to face many challenges like the Norse God of Thunder Thor and the friend-turned-enemy Freya, who is seeking revenge against Kratos for her son Baldur’s death in the last game.

Why the upcoming Santa Monica Studio’s game is a big deal for Sony?

The upcoming God of War game is the biggest PlayStation exclusive for Sony. The God of War franchise has a huge fanbase. And the 2018 game was also a colossal hit. It even won multiple Game of the Year awards. The 2018 God of War came out for the Playstation 4 and it sold around 20 million copies.

Sony is expecting similar or even greater sales for the God of War Ragnarok, which will release not only for Playstation 5 but also for the Playstation 4. The shortage of Playstation 5 in the market was worrisome for Santa Monica Studios and Sony. However, the game’s release on Playstation 4 solves the issue as Sony sold about 117 million units.
