God of War Ragnarok is finally here, and it has opened to rave reviews globally. In terms of scores, it’s already become the second-best-rated video game of the year, being only behind FromSoftware’s Elden Ring.

While the most anticipated game of 2022 has become an instant hit among the fans, the developing team of Santa Monica Studio wasn’t sure of the awaited PS5 exclusive’s overall quality a few months back. God of War Ragnarok’s director recently revealed this rare fact about the newly released sequel.

However, new director Eric Williams recently admitted that up until three months ago, his team of devs was highly concerned for the game. In fact, they were afraid of its overall quality in terms of the performance. “They were freaking out three months ago, “Holy crap, the game’s not good. What are we going to do?”” he said.

But now, witnessing the amazing debut of God of War Ragnarok, the developing team is happy and satisfied with the efforts. “I can’t even imagine how they feel today. I wish I had a time machine to go back and feel like that,” said Eric Williams.

All things considered, it seems like Santa Monica may have delivered yet another masterpiece. The game is now available worldwide for PS5 and PS4.
