A "Coming Soon" section on the official PlayStation website has raised hopes that the wait for details about God of War Ragnarök's release date won't last much longer. The initial tease for God of War Ragnarok hit the web in September 2020 during a digital PlayStation 5 event. At the time, Sony and Santa Monic Studio only confirmed a logo, the Ragnarok story arc, and a nebulous 2021 release window.

After approximately a year of silence, Santa Monica Studio closed out September 2021's PlayStation Showcase with a first look at the God of War sequel in action. Viewers were treated to over three minutes of gameplay footage, packed with teases about the new journey that awaits Kratos and an older Atreus. Freya made a few brief appearances as well, and character art for God of War's version of Thor made the rounds not long after the Sony-hosted event ended. To the chagrin of many a fan, however, one key detail went without mention - a release date.

Twitter user Joe Miller recently stumbled across the "Coming Soon" section on the official PlayStation website. The listing features a host of box art images for upcoming games, including Back 4 Blood, Battlefield 2042, Far Cry 6, and Gran Turismo 7. Several titles that still lack concrete due dates also appear on the "Coming Soon" tab, namely games such as Little Devil Inside, Stray, Ghostwire: Tokyo, and, most interestingly, God of War Ragnarok. This has led some to believe that Ragnarok could be on track for an early 2022 rollout, especially since the likes of Ghostwire: Tokyo and Stray are both scheduled to launch during that particular period.

As of writing, there is no word on when God of War Ragnarok will receive the spotlight again; thus, it's currently anyone's guess as to when exactly Sony plans on sharing official launch details for the eagerly-anticipated God of War (2018) sequel.

Since unveiling gameplay footage during PlayStation Showcase, Santa Monica Studio developers have shared several other details about the follow-up entry. For one, Ragnarok will mark the final installment in God of War's Norse saga. Cory Barlog noted in a recent interview that such a decision was made to avoid taking over decade-plus to deliver one complete storyline.
