You can't push games to people who can't buy consoles. Until they fix the supply problem, I'm not even going to get my hopes up for anything.
Gaming God of War: Ragnarok (PS4/PS5)
- Thread starter Bojan11
- Start date
It’s coming to PS4 aswell.
I've been promised 4k gaming for so long that I'd rather wait for the console.
Didn't the original play at 4k on the Pro?
May be, but I have the original release PS4 and I'd rather upgrade straight to the PS5.
That makes sense. By 2022 they may be a bit more widely available.
Two is plenty for the setting. GoW was a big game with lots of lore in it. GoW will presumably be bigger with more lore and probably the big villains of Thor and maybe Odin. No need to overstay their welcome with a third game
But the last game basically said Kratos is gonna die according to that mural so it'll likely be Atreus/Loki in any future games.

I hope so. The chip shortage is so dire that its throttling the manufacture of new cars and now used car prices are surging, which is a red flag in US economy. If it came to choosing between that and new PS5s, the governments probably divert all hardware there. I'm not optimistic of getting my hands on one until 2023 latest.
They won’t kill Kratos off permanently.
Even if they do sure won’t he just go to the spirit world then come back again..
With it being the finale of the current series, and even though I’m not always a fan of all the remakes we get these days, imagine remaking GOW, GOW2 and GOW3 using the current engine. They were amazing games even back then and I only recently played GOW3 and it is still brilliant.
Remakes of those would be epic, possibly even beyond the current games
Yeah I reckon they'd look great now. At best they'll probably get the Mass EffectHD treatment rather then a whole remake. After this one I'm guessing they are going with the Egyptian gods for the next series which will be brilliant with all the fecked up gods they have.
I hope it is earlier but judging how PlayStation have done it in the past, I think it’s going to be out in 2023. If it was next year, I think we would definitely have seen a specific release date or even a release window for it last night at the showcase.
Looking at the last GOW, they did the first cinematic trailer at E3 2016 and then released the game two years later in 2018. Did the same with their other big titles. Horizon ZD (first trailer at E3 in 2015 & game released in 2017). Spider-Man (same time period of trailer (2016) & year of release as GOW(2018)). Seems to be two years between the gameplay trailer and the actual release date which is why I think we will get our hands on this game in 2023.

I know, really hope not though. I wonder if Odin will carry over into another setting if he doesn't play a huge role in this one. They built him up too fricking well in Mimir's tales for him not to.

So much of the work on the game will have been done with part one as opposed to the titles you mentioned. I reckon it could/will come out next year.
They're such underrated games. Yes the narrative wasn't all that great but it wasn't really the point - as video games they were fantastic and each of them was super highly rated and pushed the medium in terms of the scale of action games, from what I can remember.
The narrative was ok for the time, storytelling has really come on in the last 15 years. The sense of scale was incredible and above all, they were fun games. Imagine some of them boss battles with the new engine.
Can’t wait till Kratos gets to beat up the Buddha, that’s the game I’m waiting for
What about Jesus’s dad?
Yeh him too
I hope it is next year but as I said, if it was going to be next year, surely they would have dropped a date or even at least a release period on when to expect it at the showcase? Particularly if you are correct if there has been a lot of the work done on the game and it is scheduled for release next year.
I’m just predicting 2023 judging on past experience with the previous exclusive big title games when we seen the proper first cinematic/gameplay trailer and then the game gets released two years later.

Oh yeah can't wait. The first was insanely good.
Maybe update the title @Damien ?
Hope the new one also has boss fights.
Awesome news and that's not too far away! Hopefully that date won't slip too much, something to look forward to.
Excellent.
Awesome that’s at least one solid game to look forward to this year.
Another 8 out of 10 masterpiece coming up 
Buzzing!
I’m on annual leave roundabout then too so hoping to get this completed before the World Cup starts.
Oooooh baby, GIMME.
Yes! Very welcome news and well timed for the year.
Let's go!
Fantastic, cannot wait!!
I wonder when the State Of Play event for this will be?
Not sure if it'll get a stand alone one - might just be the opening part of the Showcase in Septemberish time.
I’d be very surprised with that if they didn’t as this is literally their biggest exclusive for later this year. The likes of TLOU2, H:FW, GT7 all got one and it would be unusual if they didn’t do it for GOW: Ragnarock as they know how huge the fanbase is for this and many people will want to see some in-depth hands on gameplay.
This might be the game that makes me buy a 4KTV after I have been promising myself to do so for the past 3 years
