God of War 2 could arrive on both PS5 and PS4 and therefore be a cross-gen game, or at least this is what can emerge from an interpretation of the words, or rather the lack of words, by Jim Ryan who has not confirmed the fact that the title is a PS5 exclusive.
The phrase is extrapolated from a long interview by The Telegraph with the CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment, Jim Ryan, regarding several other aspects of the PS5 such as the price of the games and much more, but a passage related to God of War 2 or God of War Ragnarok, as the new chapter of the series in development at Sony Santa Monica is defined, has attracted some attention.
Asked "Can you confirm that God of War Ragnarok is a PS5 exclusive?" Ryan replied rather cryptically, saying only, "I'm sorry, I can't say anything about this today."
Obviously, the sentence itself is not very indicative, it is a classic "no commen t "which usually concerns all the topics that come out of the pre-set seed for an interview, but given the previous ones it is suspected that the answer implies the fact that God of War 2 is also planned for PS4.
D ' on the other hand, it would not be the first time: Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales and Horizon Forbidden West have long been reputed as absolute PS5 exclusives for the next gen Sony, only to discover that they are also foreseen on PS4 as cross-gen. br>
Obviously we tend to exclude that the evasive answer could hide the fact that God of War Ragnarok can arrive on other non-PlayStation platforms such as the PC, even if if desired it could be part of the broader interpretation of the question.
On the other hand, it would be in line with the idea of a longer-than-expected PS4 to PS5 transition that emerged a few days ago from an interview with Hideaki Nishino, vice president of Sony Interactive Entertainment, which may require even three years and therefore imply new cross-gen games on the way.
