For a long time it was uncertain whether God of War Ragnarök would actually release on PS4 and PS5 this year.

In this article, we summarize everything you need to know about the release of Ragnarök .

Gameplay – What’s new in God of War Ragnarok?
The 2018 reboot already set the bar very high for the series and achieved a dream score of 93 in our test. Ragnarök builds on this base, but of course incorporates many innovations. These include, among others:
Kratos and Atreus find themselves in the nine worlds of Norse mythology
There are a lot more (optional) boss fights and a wider variety of opponents
Revised combat system: Kratos uses new Spartan Rage attacks and shields, among other things, and thanks to his Chaos Blades he now moves vertically much more often
There are some very good and emotional side missions.
In general, the range has increased significantly compared to the predecessor.
