After the surprise announcement at the end of PlayStation 5 Showcase last September, God of War Ragnarok immediately became one of the most anticipated titles for this 2021. Having won an avalanche of awards as Game of the Year for 2018 - beating highly respected rivals such as Red Dead Redemption 2 e Monster Hunter World - many were eager to find out how the adventures of Kratos and Atreus in Midgard… but perhaps the wait will have to be a little longer than expected. Second Jason Schreier Bloomberg, in fact, also the new production of Santa Monica Studio has suffered some delays caused by the Covid-19 pandemic that still looms over the world, and the official announcement of a postponement of the game to 2022.
The confirmation comes from a tweet from the well-known insider Nibellion, which underlines how in a recent interview with Jim Ryan on Famitsu, the PlayStation CEO continually refers to Horizon: Forbidden West as a game arriving in the second half of 2021 without ever referring to God of War Ragnarok, which was announced as also being released at the end of this year. Almost in confirmation of all this, Schreier intervenes in the speech and responding to the aforementioned insider in an absolutely ironic way he writes: "If you still think that God of War can come out in 2021, you are really a Boccaloni."
By joining all the dots it is therefore very likely that we will soon be able to see another large referral, after the one he suffered. Gran Turismo 7 just a few hours ago, moving the release of his highly anticipated games to an undetermined launch window over the next year. Unfortunately, therefore, the hopes of being able to see a worthy one as soon as possible conclusion of the Nordic adventures of Kratos they will have to wait a little longer, hoping that the bad situation in which the whole world is pouring can be resolved as soon as possible.
I've got a nice shiny bridge to sell anyone who thinks God of War is coming out this year
