Just like its predecessor, a New Game Plus mode is coming to God of War Ragnarök in the form of a post-launch update set to arrive sometime in Spring 2023, the game’s developer Santa Monica Studio announced on Twitter.
That this not too surprising as Sony’s other first-party single-player have followed suit so it was never a question of if the mode would come to the God of War sequel but only when. Like Sony’s other New Game Plus modes players will be able to access all their previous progress from a completed playthrough which includes all upgraded gear and possibly running into tougher enemies in the early game this time around. It still seems a little of a ways off to go through God of War Ragnarök once more, which after voting we chose as our Game of the Year.
We know many of you have been asking, so we’re happy to confirm that New Game Plus will be coming to #GodofWarRagnarok in Spring 2023!
We’ll share more details once we get closer to the release! 🐻 🐺 pic.twitter.com/vmv5X2USuW

“God of War Ragnarök is more than the sum of its parts. To say it is better than the 2018 reboot is easy because within minutes that’s the furthest thing in your mind. These characters and this world are so endearing and realized that you quickly find yourself overwhelmed with emotions. God of War Ragnarök is an exceptional conclusion to a compelling saga. Filled with larger-than-life characters, deep combat, and a moving score, Santa Monica Studios delivers one of the most invigorating experiences you’ll ever play. It is an emotional, endearing, and visceral experience that has several key moments that left me speechless thanks to the incredible score and performances,” Bobby said in our God of War Ragnarök review.
God of War Ragnarök is currently available for PS4 and PS5 consoles.
