News | Voice actor Kratos"states delay God of War: Ragnarok "is my fault
God of War: Ragnarok will not be released until 2022, according to Christopher Judge, the voice actor behind main character Kratos states it's his fault.
He reported this on Twitter. He tells there that he could not walk in 2019 and had an operation on his back. His hips were also replaced and he had knee surgery. “They (Santa Monica Studio) have been waiting for me to recover.”
In a follow-up tweet, he says that no one within the developer got mad at him. When the game was unveiled last year, there was still a release year of 2021, but it is now known that the game will be released in 2022. “Santa Monica has never disclosed the reason for the delay.” Judge therefore praises the way the developer has dealt with this.
💯 in my feels right now. I need to be forthcoming. This has been approved by no one. To the beloved fandom, Ragnarok was delayed because of me. August 2019, I couldn’t walk. Had to have back surgery, both hips replaced, and, knee surgery. They waited for me too rehab…

News | First Trailer God of War: Ragnarok Shown
Sony has released the first trailer for God of War: Ragnarok.
The company did so during the PlayStation Showcase tonight. The new God of War was already announced last year through a teaser. Then 2021 was mentioned as the release year in the teaser, but earlier this year Sony already indicated that the game would only be released in 2022.
The trailer shows various locations in the game. Kratos and his son Atreus head out again and can visit all nine realms instead of the six from the previous God of War. The duo is looking for the Norse god of war, Tyr.
In addition, Ryan Hurst, an actor best known for his role as Opie from the Sons of Anarchy series, is known to play the role of Thor. It has also been announced that Cory Barlog will not direct the new God of War. Eric Williams takes over – he has worked on all the games in the series.
Finally, developer Sony Santa Monica reported that God of War: Ragnarok is the final part of the ‘Norwegian series’ of God of War. After that, the series may therefore focus on other settings.
God of War: Ragnarok is the direct sequel to the 2018 God of War. In it, Kratos does not compete against the Greek gods, but against the gods from Norse mythologies. In doing so, he uses a special ax that returns to him after throwing it at enemies or objects. The game was particularly well received by the worldwide press and gamers.
God of War is coming to both PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 sometime in 2022. Watch the trailer below.

Christopher Judge, the actor who portrays God of War lead character Kratos, shares his joy at the newly announced new part.
He did that on social media. He posted two videos. In one of the videos he turns on his microphone and says the iconic “boy”. In the other video, he is holding a Kratos action figure and smiling at the camera.
