God of War: Ragnarok might have been delayed

Honestly? It's impossible to tell when God of War: Ragnarok will release. Quite frankly? We don't even care at this point. Santa Monica Studio can take as much time as it needs to craft a worthy sequel to the PS4's best-selling game. The developers reportedly took a half-decade to make 2018's God of War soft reboot, and we wouldn't mind waiting as long for the follow-up. But, at the very least, Santa Monica Studio and Sony should come forward with a narrower release window as opposed to just 2022. Most wouldn't mind seeing God of War: Ragnarok in 2023 if it means good news for the game.

God of War Ragnarok has already broken a long-running series tradition, so a delay isn't totally outlandish. However, we are hoping that Sony has at least one or two games to fill in the gap if the sequel doesn't come out in Q3 or Q4 this year.

As it stands, the only big upcoming PS5 exclusive is Forspoken in October. Another AAA title for the PS5 would definitely widen its gap against the Xbox Series S/X after Microsoft hit a snag with Starfield and Redfall. If we're lucky, Sony could slot in the rumored The Last of Us Remake, which supposedly comes out on September 2.

Of course, we're all speaking in hypotheticals here. It's best to wait for Sony to come out and announce something more official. Until then, just assume that God of War: Ragnarok is only a few months away.
