Japanese gaming giant, Sony, has recently shared an investor report, which contained images of various titles. In the report, the studio mistakenly confirmed the name of the highly expected sequel as God of War: Ragnarok. So far, the studio has only revealed a teaser trailer, which was released 8 months ago. The teaser only confirmed that Ragnarok is approaching, and it never revealed the name, release date, or gameplay. However, this latest report has mistakenly revealed the name ahead of its release, which the studio rectified later on. Safe to say, this mistake was unintended, but it has indeed become a major talking point.

By all means, fans should take this news with a grain of salt, as the title is still under production. The financial filing [https://www.sony.com/en/SonyInfo/IR/library/presen/irday/pdf/2021/GNS_E.pdf] merely contained information about the company’s performance and the plans for the future. The teaser trailer only contains one line, and the trademark logo God of War. This exact logo with blue color was seen inside the report with Ragnarok written underneath.

The studio gave the fans an elaborate tease about things to come to the come. The final act of the game foreshadowed Kratos’ death, while Loki could take over. The franchise will not be the same after Kratos exits the game. He has died many times within the storyline, but on every occasion, he came back from death. However, the franchise has changed direction drastically, ever since God of War 4 was released. The franchise carries a more serious tone with characters and a storyline that fans can follow through like a movie. The game’s combat feels less like a hack and slash experience and more like a game of chess. This significant change has caught the entire fanbase by surprise and it seems like Kratos might die once again. However, this death might not be permanent, as the franchise cannot hope to continue without everyone’s favorite war god.

<h2>God of War: Ragnarok 2021 - Release Date, Trailer, and Platforms</h2>
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-559496" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20210220234145/God-of-War-1.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="674" />

God of War: Ragnarok is set to become the latest addition to the widely successful and loved God of War franchise. With Sony Interactive Entertainment acting as the publisher, the game is currently in development under one of its first-party studios.

Even though this upcoming game is yet to bear an official title, it will become the ninth core entry developed by Santa Monica Studios in the God of War series, and serve as a sequel to 2018's God of War.
<h2>God of War: Ragnarok reveal and trailer</h2>
The developers officially revealed the new God of War game during the PlayStation 5 Showcase on September 16, 2020. During the closing section of the event, fans got the first glance at a short teaser trailer for the upcoming sequel. Even though the trailer did not confirm the title's name, it showed some cryptic teasers and declared, "Ragnarok is coming".

This is what led fans to speculate that 'God of War: Ragnarok' would be the game's title. However, there is no confirmation regarding the same from Santa Monica Studios or Sony.
<h2>God of War: Ragnarok release date and will it be available on PS4?</h2>
The same teaser trailer also revealed the probable release date for the new God of War title. Santa Monica Studios and SIE have scheduled the game for release sometime in 2021.

Just like previous God of War games, the upcoming one will also be a PlayStation exclusive, as announced in the PS5 showcase event in September 2020. Therefore, it is expected to be available exclusively on the new-gen PlayStation 5 console.

Fans have speculated whether the latest God of War would also grace the previous-gen PlayStation 4 console. This was after Sony revealed its plans to release a few other titles on the PS4 that were initially assumed as PS5 exclusives. Horizon Forbidden West is one such example.

At this moment, there is not much clarity on whether this game will be a PS5 exclusive, or also be available on the PS4.
<h2>God of War: Ragnarok gameplay and story</h2>
Even though the untitled sequel's development is far from complete, it is already among the most anticipated game's in 2021. Besides being nominated for Most Anticipated Game at The Game Awards 2020, it bagged the PlayStation Blog's award for the same category.

Set in the Norse environment, the game will take place in ancient Norway. Similar to the previous title, Kratos and his young son will feature as protagonists once again.

The ending of 2018's God of War contained significant hints for an impending sequel. Later, in April 2019, a teaser surfaced in the form of a PS4 background theme. In it, fans spotted some Nordic runes etched across the side of Kratos and Atreus' boat, giving away a cryptic message, "Ragnarok is coming".

This tagline points towards the initiation of Ragnarok in the upcoming God of War game, as foretold in its 2018 prequel. In Norse mythology, Ragnarok refers to a series of events that bring about the destruction of the world.
