  • "God of War Ragnarok" was announced on September 16, 2020
  • The game is rumored to launch on PC
  • "God of War Ragnarok" was announced to release in 2021

The next installment to the successful "God Of War" series is expected to arrive sometime this year. However, this might not be the case. The release of "God of War Ragnarok" may have been delayed, according to a reliable video games journalist.

Bloomberg's Jason Schreier was recently asked when the "God of War Ragnarok" would be "formally delayed." The former Kotaku journalist replied saying that he believes the game was internally delayed months ago. Apparently, this setback would be made official by Sony later when it is ready to talk about the game in greater detail.

The Japanese gaming giant has not yet shown any indication about its plans for the PS5 for 2022 and beyond. However, fans believe that the company might hold a summer event for this. "God of War Ragnarok" was announced at a PlayStation event in September 2020. During the announcement, it was revealed that the game would be released in 2021.

However, despite the announcement, fans were skeptical since the game has no announced title and Sony has not released any gameplay or details about the game. Information on the highly anticipated "God Of War" installment is scarce these days. This is understandable since the game is still in development. Even Game Director Cory Balrog has been careful in revealing anything related to the game.

Sony has not offered even a crumb of information about the upcoming title, but fans are still deciphering the clues from the last "God of War" game to find any connection with "Ragnarok." Earlier rumors suggested that Roger Clark, the "RDR2" actor, would play Thor in "God of War Ragnarok." However, Clark denied it and mentioned that the rumor originated when he shared industry listings on social media outlets.

There were also rumors claiming that Sony plans to launch the game on PC. But, Sony has not commented on it either. The information hold-out on "God Of War Ragnarok" could possibly be due to the company waiting for a larger marketing push for the game. In the absence of an official confirmation, new details about the game are purely speculative.
