The end of the world is here yet again! Well, at least in the new God Of War game. It has been several years since Kratos left the Greek world behind and is living in the treacherous and dangerous world of Nordic lands. With the prophesized event of “Ragnarok” on the horizon, the pair Kratos and Atreus must do everything in their power to stop it. Considering there are many many events that will unfold in the game, it is only fair that we see how long exactly is God of War Ragnarok in terms of playtime. The playtime that we will be discussing shortly can be different for different players, due to the different playstyles that are unique to each player. Nevertheless, it will surely be a long way.
As you may have known, God of War Ragnarok is one behemoth of a game. It has fans around the world super excited. The reason for it? The God of War series is among the longest-lasting franchises to ever grace the gaming screens. With more than 10 years in standing, some fans have practically grown up with Kratos. This is why his journey almost feels personal and it is one more reason to love the upcoming game. Now, players who have played the old God of War games know that Kratos also helps people in the form of side missions. God of War Ragnarok will expand on that. Considering all this, the runtime will surely be long. With this said, let us take a look at the main topic at hand.
How long is God of War Ragnarok?
Games with a heavy focus on story and narrative are usually quite long. They can range from somewhere between 30-60 hours. The same is the case with God of War Ragnarok, which is estimated to be roughly 40 hours long. This is the average playtime and can be more or less depending on the player’s style of gaming. Needless to say, there are also reports that you can stretch the game to an astounding 60 hours. This is for the players who either play the game on harder difficulties or give dedicated time to exploring all the 9 realms that are featured.
Needless to say, this is still a very long time to play considering how the prequel to God of War Ragnarok was only 40-50 hours “with all the extras and main story combined”. The new game has brought a vast improvement not only in terms of other gameplay experiences but also in the length of the game. It is hardly surprising that it will take players this long as the events of Ragnarok are huge if we look at the real mythology. The fight between Thor and the World Serpent, Odin fighting Fenrir the Wolf, and amidst all this will be the journey of Kratos himself. There are just too many things that we hope to see in the game. To conclude, this was our article and we hope you enjoyed it. Keep visiting Digistatement for more.
