According to different sources, the release date of the long-awaited God of War: Ragnarok it was going to be announced yesterday, June 30, 2022. That did not happen, and many are wondering what could have happened. Now a trusted journalist shares what is the possible reason why this announcement was delayed.
In a conversation on the ResetEra forumsJason Schreier, one of the most trusted journalists in the industry, spoke about the announcement situation of God of War: Ragnarok. The journalist assures that he contacted several of his sources and was able to confirm that the revelation of the release date of God of War: Ragnarok It was scheduled for June 30.
If this announcement was scheduled for tomorrow, then what the heck happened? Schreier was unable to confirm the exact cause. However, he assures that there is speculation that it is about the annulment of Roe v. Wade, political event in the United States in which the Supreme Court eliminated the constitutional right to abortion throughout the country.

“After talking to more people yesterday, I can definitely state that there was a release date/pre-sale announcement planned for yesterday. It was delayed sometime last week. I do not know why. (There is speculation that it was because of the Roe v Wade case.) Also, PlayStation has tried to keep it secret in such a way that most Sony Santa Monica employees weren’t even informed about it,” Schreier said.
This would not be the first time that PlayStation would delay an announcement for political reasons. Recall that 2020, PlayStation delayed an event focused on PlayStation 5 as a sign of solidarity with the protests of the Black Lives Matter movement that raised their voices against police brutality.
“We have decided to postpone the PlayStation 5 event scheduled for June 4. While we understand gamers around the world are excited to see games for PlayStation 5, we don’t feel like now is a time to celebrate and for now, we want to step back and allow more important voices to be heard.” back then.
