God of War: Ragnarok Launch Date Confirmed | Here’s a Preorder Guide

The end of the world, also known as Ragnarok, is drawing near. In November, Sony Santa Monica's God of War Ragnarok will be released for the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4, continuing the narrative of Kratos and Atreus as the end of the world creeps closer.

PlayStation hasn't divulged much information about the upcoming game God of War Ragnarok. Still, if it's anything like the legendary story, many people will probably be killed. It would appear that Kratos' murder of Thor's sons in the last game did not sit well with the god of thunder.

On July 15, you can place your preorders for the product, which will be available on November 9. It should be no surprise that the collector's editions of God of War Ragnarok will be of a high caliber, considering how well the 2018 installment of the God of War series was received.

We will explain what is included in each edition as well as provide information on where you can preorder them before they are made available to the public.

Every Edition Currently Available of God of War: Ragnarok

Four unique editions of God of War Ragnarok are available to purchase: the Launch Edition, the Digital Deluxe Edition, the Collector's Edition, and the Jotnar Edition. On July 15, 2022, at 10:00 a.m. local time, the company is planning to begin accepting advance orders (10 a.m. ET).

As may be anticipated, the Launch Edition only includes the most fundamental components. Players can choose to receive their copy of God of War Ragnarok on the PlayStation 4 or the PlayStation 5. Those who preorder it will also receive the cosmetic items known as the Kratos Risen Snow Armor and the Atreus Risen Snow Tunic.

The only thing that differentiates what PlayStation refers to as the Standard Edition from the Launch Edition is that the latter is only available to users who preorder the game. After November 9, customers will only be able to purchase the game in its Standard Edition, which does not include any presale incentives.

#2. God of War Ragnarok: Digital Deluxe Edition
