PlayStation unveils the contents of the special editions of God of War Ragnarok, as well as revealing the release date for the upcoming title.

With God of War Ragnarok set to come out this year, players have been anxious to know when exactly Santa Monica Studio plans on finally releasing this highly anticipated title. Now, a PlayStation Blog post has answered that question, hopefully quelling the over-excitement among God of War fans, while also showing off the special items available in each of the game's editions.

This reveal took the form of a video starring Ryan Hurst, the actor providing the voice and motion capture for Thor in God of War Ragnarok, and Santa Monica Studio Art Director Rafael Grassetti. In addition to showing off the digital and physical merch that fans will be able to get their hands on, the original blog post also revealed the release date for God of War Ragnarok.

The first interesting note about the two tiers of physical editions, the Collectors Edition and the Jötnar Edition, is the box that it all comes in, designed after the Knowledge Keeper Shrines found in God of War Ragnarok. Additionally, each edition will come with several figurines, such as the Vanir Twins Carvings and sets of dice that are specific to the Collector's and Jotnar versions. Then there is the content from the Digital Deluxe Edition, including armor and weapons for Kratos and Atreus, all being available in the higher-tiered collections. However, the crown jewel for most fans will likely be the sixteen-inch Mjolnir Replica, which surprisingly comes with either of these physical collections.

As for the major differences between the Collectors and Jotnar Editions, this comes down to a few key items only available in the top-tier set. These items include a falcon, bear, and wolf pin set, a vinyl record, a cloth map, and a ring that holds a special significance in Norse Mythology. Altogether, the Jotnar Edition seems to have a bit more going for it, although with both housing the Mjolnir Replica in Knowledge Keeper Shrine, the contents of either of God of War Ragnarok's Collectors Editions might suit fans just fine.

Full Edition Breakdowns are as follows:

Also included in the Collector’s Edition are the following digital items:

Also included in the Jötnar Edition are the following digital items:

Either of these two editions would add some impressive pieces to any fan's collection, between the Knowledge Keeper Shrine and the Mjolnir Replica. However, that doesn't discredit the pin set, cloth map, or Draupnir Ring as valuable items for anyone looking to add any of them to their collection. The map for one shows off a brilliant depiction of Yggdrasil and how God of War's Nine Realms all connect and intersect with each other. It's one of many impressive pieces for those interested enough in the franchise or even Norse Mythology in general.

God of War Ragnarok is set to release November 9, 2022, for PS4 and PS5.
