Fans eagerly awaited and greeted “God of War: Ragnarok”‘s November 2022 PlayStation console release with great praise. Like the 2018 “God of War,” fans started to speculate whether this grand Norse adventure would ever come to the PC. Although there hasn’t been an official confirmation yet, some indications indicate the possibility of a PC release soon. In this article, we’ll look at the evidence and talk about when “God of War: Ragnarok” might be released on PC.
Sony’s Dedication to PC Ports
Sony has clearly stated what it intends to do regarding the PC versions of its first-party games. Games such as “Horizon: Zero Dawn,” “Days Gone,” “God of War,” “Spider-Man,” and “The Last of Us: Remastered” have all been released on PC with success. Sony is committed to expanding the PC platform’s user base for its critically acclaimed games. History indicates that “God of War: Ragnarok” might do the same, even though an official announcement is still a ways off.
Collaborating With Jetpack Interactive
Additional proof of Sony’s intentions comes from Jetpack Interactive, a business that worked with the latter to port “God of War” (2018) to the PC. A current collaboration with Sony Santa Monica on the “God of War” franchise is mentioned on their LinkedIn page. This suggests a long-term relationship with the PC version of the IP, even though it might have to do with ongoing work on the 2018 port.
The Question of When Will Ragnarok Be Released on PC
The next question is when “God of War: Ragnarok” will be released for the PC. In May 2023, Jim Ryan, the CEO of Sony, hinted in a Famitsu interview that the company is considering fan feedback when determining PC release schedules. According to him, there has been support from fans for the PC version to be released two or three years after the PlayStation version. This suggests a possible release window for the PC of 2024–2025, which would be sooner than the 2018 “God of War” port.
DLC’s Effect on PC Release
The availability of downloadable content (DLC) is one factor that might impact “God of War: Ragnarok”‘s PC release. DLC for “God of War” (2018) was not available, but a recent leak indicates that it might be planned for “Ragnarok.” Insider The Snitch, renowned for making precise forecasts, hinted about upcoming game DLC. Since no official announcement has been made, this could cause the PC release to be delayed by several years, given that the DLC is reportedly about 60% complete.

Q3. Is Ragnarok inferior to God of War 1?
Despite having all the technical advantages over its predecessor, God of War: Ragnarok does not have the same subversive quality. Ragnarok is evolution if God of War was a revolution. A well-known franchise was completely and imaginatively reimagined in God of War.
