God Of War Ragnarok release date to be announced this month

In addition to the game being released in November, the report mentions that an official date is to be announced later this month. Pending no more delays, a November 2022 release would put God Of War Ragnarok right in the window of holiday shopping season. Not to mention following October’s release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II. It’s also set to be one of Sony’s biggest game launches this year. And could help supplement some of the lost income due to supply shortages for the PS5. Sony has been continually dealing with not being able to meet demand for its PS5 console. An unfortunate side effect of the pandemic challenges. And although Sony’s sales of the console have been good, a big blockbuster game release couldn’t hurt. That being said, PS5 production and sales are expected to ramp up soon. Sales of the PS5 are expected to close the gap in year 3. And SIE CEO Jim Ryan believes that the PS5 will overtake the PS4 again in year 4. Until that time, the company will need to rely on strong software sales and whatever amount of PS5 units it can continue to ship.
