Boy! You read that right – God of War Ragnarök is coming to PC. The news came as part of this evening’s State of Play, with Sony adding it will arrive with its Valhalla DLC included.
An accompanying blog post notes that an “account for PlayStation Network is required” – something unlikely to please fans after the Helldivers 2 debacle. Eurogamer has contacted Sony for more details. A PSN is also required for fellow PlayStation PC port, Until Dawn. [UPDATE: God of War Ragnarök’s Steam page is now online and also warns you’ll need a PlayStation Network account.]
The upcoming PC port – which was rumoured to be in the pipeline prior to this evening’s announcement – will join other former PlayStation console exclusives such as Days Gone, Horizon Forbidden West and Marvel’s Spider-Man, which have all made the transition to an additional platform over recent years.

Our Chris Tapsell called God of War Ragnarök “gargantuan, excessive, and wonderfully absurd” on its initial release in 2022.
“Ragnarök’s dramatic might comes from its unique access to a sense of scale, a sense that was so sorely missed in the previous game and remedied with conviction here at last,” he wrote in Eurogamer’s God of War Ragnarök review.
