The long wait for our next romp through Midgard and the rest of the nine realms, as per Norse mythology, is finally coming to an end. God of War: Ragnarok is set to come out on November 9 after being delayed from its original release date launch year. However, hesitant fans who'd like to know more about the God of War sequel before buying the game might want to circle another date.
According to Joe Miller, an errant PlayStation Store listing schedules the pre-load times for God of War Ragnarok on November 2, with the review embargo also expected to end on the same day.
Pre-load means that PS4 and PS5 owners who pre-ordered a digital copy of God of War: Ragnarok can start adding the game to their library so all they have to do is to play after a small patch on November 9.
2018's God of War was the best-selling game on the PS4 by a mile. Santa Monica Studio's decision to "reboot" the entire franchise and give it a facelift paid off dividends as the game continues to be influential to this day. In fact, EA Motive is using the same one-shot camera approach on another remake, Dead Space, which comes out on January 27 next year.
