God of War: Ragnarok launch delayed to 2022, confirmed for both PS5 and PS4

The launch of the next iteration in the God of War series has been pushed to 2022, from its original launch date meant for later this year.

Gamers have anticipated the sequel to the renowned God of War series for a long time. Originally planned to be launched later in 2021, the game has now been delayed to next year, though there is a bit of good news as well. The delay was recently confirmed by the game's developer Santa Monica Studio in a tweet. The studio indirectly cited the ongoing pandemic as a reason for this delay, stating that it needs to maintain the safety and well-being of its team and creative partners. Alongside, it also clarified its intent on delivering a top-quality game despite the odds. This seems to be a smart move on the studio's part, as a delayed launch for a top-quality game is always better than a hurried introduction of a sub-par title. We have seen that recently with several gaming titles, as the time spent by the developers on ironing out the bugs ultimately reflects in the quality of the game.
