A few retailers have started to ship copies of God of War Ragnarok ahead of its launch next month.

Lots of details about the game have started to leak.

Cory Barlog, game director of God of War (2018) expressed the team’s frustration over the leak.

God of War: Ragnarok is one of the most anticipated PlayStation games. The game is a sequel to 2018’s God of War and although, the game is scheduled to release on November 9, certain US-based retailers have reportedly started to sell physical copies of the game. So, it goes without saying that this has leaked several details of the game. Let’s take a detailed look into what exactly has happened. 

How has God of War: Ragnarok leaked?

As per reports, a retailer has started selling physical copies of God of War: Ragnarok nearly two weeks before the release. While the game is all set to launch on November 9, anyone who gets their hand on a physical copy of the game can indeed play the game early. 

Cory Barlog, the game director of God of War (2018) wasn’t exactly happy with this, as according to him all the God of War Ragnarok fans will have a higher chance of getting spoiled which would ruin their experience. They would have to avoid all the spoilers that are spreading like wildfire on social media to play the game fresh.

Because of the leak, Cory got so frustrated that he also mentioned the upsides of having an installer on the physical editions of a game. However, he later cleared that he was expressing his frustration over the leak.

The developers have advised everyone trying to avoid spoilers to mute keywords or hashtags that include “God of War” or “God of War Ragnarok” until the official release to avoid any kind of spoilers.
