Cory Barlog implies God of War: Ragnarok is hitting 2022
- Thread starter ThisThingIsUseful
- Start date
They wouldn't be holding Ragnarok for Part 1. Ragnarok will probably break their sale records.
The truth is he probably didn't have far to fall I imagine. Those that get to where he does generally don't
TLOU and God of War and Sonys flagship IPs. Ghost was a completely new IP. From a business perspective, you don't release 2 flagship products so close to each other.
Gran Turismo is different. That's a live service product and the whole goal is to make money over time. Titles like TLOU and God of War make disgusting amount of money early on.
EDIT: I'm not saying I want the game to be a 2023 title, I would love to play it in 2022, but I'm keeping my expectations low just in case.
Sony released TLOU2 and GoT, two narrative single player games, one month apart from each other
They also did this for GOT and TLOU I honestly dont think they are purposely holding anything back. It makes zero sense
Nah Man. They are seperated enough. Sony is not gonna delay a game because they're possibly 2.5 months apart. If it's ready, it ships. It got delayed enough already.

GoT may be a new IP, but the money and resources behind it were there because they expected it to be their next franchise. In the end, its being a new IP is a distinction without a difference. It's a flagship game, just a new one.
I think the logical fallacy with "would sony really release both God of War and The Last of Us 1 Remake months apart?" is... We know it was happening. Jason Schreier has already reported the release date was targeting September and is now targeting November. Its not that suddenly TLOU Part I came to existence. It was the plan for a while. There is no point argue with "would they" when we know they are/were.
why would sony have their team sit on their hands with a completed game makes no sense lmao. Sony will release when they want to release they arent planning much and esp end of this year is the perfect time frame for them to release it for a big holiday.

I'm sure it's all hands on deck to try to get it out this fall. With all the games delayed until 2023 it stands to be the big AAA single player game this fall (other than Pokemon and whatever else from Nintendo, but that's a pretty different focus from GoW).
Not that it won't sell great whenever it's released, but there's a lot of benefits to getting more $70 launch window sales when fewer AAA single player games are coming out vs. later as most people only buy one or two games at a time and some things get pushed off and bought later during sales etc.

I like Jaffe. He's said stupid stuff and continues to do so, but he consistently speaks up for queer rights, and recently abortion rights to a lot of his idiotic fanbase.
Your first sentence complete contradicts your second :p

It isn't too close. TLOU 2 and Ghost of Tsushima launched a month apart.
Horizon Forbidden West and GT7 launched a week or two apart.
The golden rule is typically around a month, so it makes sense they are going to launch Ragnarok in November.
TLOU 1 Remaster - September
Forspoken - October
Ragnarok - November
They could have made September. I guarantee it. But Starfield being delayed opened the sweet holiday spot in November, and Sony couldn't resist.
Its almost like some ppl just skipped the past 2 years, or since the PS5 launched.
They way Sony launched the PS5 should tell anyone they have no problem shipping games together or back to back.
The dudes not been on twitter in months, this absolutely means something! 😁
