Santa Monica has confirmed that God of War Ragnarok will feature 5 difficulty settings in total, and players can change it at any time.
Some of the best PS5 games are exclusives like God of War Ragnarok and Astro Bot, but there are some indie highlights as well.
The festivities also include new 20th anniversary merch, a fan kit, and more.
What an absolute half-hearted and shoddy way for Sony to commemorate the epic God of War series. A few alternative skins and the option to buy t-shirts or vinyl. It would have been better to not have any celebration. Abysmal.

No offense Sony… but nobody is playing God of war ragnarok in 2025…
Yeah no one at all especially when it just became available to the millions of PS plus subscribers
Maybe it’s because I sold my Ps5 last year and built a new PC. But ragnarok I finished in 2022 when it released. Don’t have any motivation to replay.
It would have been nice to have a PS plus drop of the ps2 original though I get that
I actually installed it again today to try the latest roguelite DLC. Costumes is a nice addition but def expected something else.
Mate, I only started playing the previous one. It holds up unbelievably well considering it was a PS4 release
Damn Sony
You keep on remastering recent games and yet choose not to for a franchise that's celebrating it's 20 years?
I'm sure a lot of old and new fans would appreciate being able to play the entire saga using their current gen consoles.
Sure but that would require to actually remaster. Not selling the same game from last gen in a new box and call it remaster.
I admit I got a bit swept up in thinking we would get a PS classics drop of the first game on PS plus not a remaster or anything just running under the new ps2 emulator id be.halpy with that or the PSP games that deserve more praise really
Playstation writes: "Starting with tomorrow’s release of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 for PC, we’re working to add more benefits to playing with an account for PlayStation Network. The Last of Us Part II Remastered (coming April 3, 2025), in addition to God of War Ragnarök and Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered, will all soon be adding in-game content unlocks for PlayStation Network account users.
An account for PlayStation Network will become optional for these titles on PC. Players who still opt to sign into a PlayStation Network account will also enjoy added benefits like trophies and friend management."
Even, give me God of war?
This is interesting, considering the 2018 game locks you into a certain difficulty (Give Me God Of War difficulty), which makes me think:
1) People complained about that, and as such SSM listened to feedback
2) Ragnarok will be even more difficult than GOWs hardest difficulty
Or maybe its little bit of both (...) in any case, i welcome more challenge.
I don't see the relevance if there is no trophy for the hardest difficultly, the 2018 game didn't have it either.
They should all remove the difficulty below NORMAL.
