A now-deleted trailer uploaded by PlayStation itself talked about a launch date of 11/11/22 for God of Warfare Ragnarok – the identical day that Starfield was presupposed to launch previous to its delay. Nevertheless, fanboy theories that Sony needed to stomp out Starfield are simply that – fanboy theories.

Starfield was delayed nicely earlier than the announcement of God of Warfare Ragnarok’s launch date so the 2 haven’t any correlation, particularly since there was solely going to be a two-day distinction between them. One believable concept for releasing the sport on the ninth is that Wednesday is called after Odin and Norse mythology has 9 realms so a launch date of Wednesday, the ninth, would slot in with God of Warfare Ragnarok’s theme.
Maybe, this last-minute change was the explanation Sony delayed the discharge date’s announcement to start with. At this level, players are in all probability well-aware of the hoopla surrounding God of Warfare Ragnarok’s PS Weblog submit, which was presupposed to go up on June thirtieth however ended up being pushed to July sixth. A bizarre concept floating round for the delay was the U.S. Supreme Courtroom’s Roe vs. Wade ruling however we’re unsure how that connection was fashioned.
“I heard after the announcement that it was certainly deliberate for 11/11/22, and that the sudden launch change to 11/9/22 was why they bumped again the announcement from June 30 to the week after,” Jason Schreier wrote on ResetEra. “Not 100% certain why they moved it. I believe it was extra of a logistical factor moderately than something to do with Starfield.”
In different information, a federal decide has dismissed a lawsuit towards Sony over PS Retailer obtain monopoly, and PS5 generated the very best greenback gross sales within the U.S. within the first half of 2022.
