A God of War Ragnarök trial is now available on PlayStation Plus Premium
The offer lets North American players sample three hours of the PS4 and PS5 game
Sony has launched a God of War Ragnarök trial for PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers.
At the time of publishing, the trial only appears to be available in North America, but we’d expect it to be rolled out in other regions too and we’ve asked Sony if that’s the plan.
The trial offers PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers the chance to play the full PS4 and PS5 game for three hours.
Ahead of Ragnarök’s release, Sony said 2018’s God of War reboot was one of the biggest titles ever released exclusively for PlayStation, with 23 million sales, and that it expected a similar performance from its sequel.
Sony claimed this month that God of War Ragnarök sales surpassed 11 million copies in the first 10 weeks after its November 2022 release, “making it the fastest-selling first-party title ever”.
VGC’s God of War Ragnarök review labelled the multi-award-winning title one of the best PlayStation games ever.
In a new interview, God of War Ragnarök’s narrative director said that at one point protagonist Kratos was going to have a very different fate in the game.
