God of War Ragnarök is out now, and with that, developer Santa Monica Studio is “strongly” advising players to download the day-one patch. In its patch notes, the Sony-owned studio listed over 160 fixes for both the PS4 and PS5 versions, aimed at offering the best possible gameplay experience. While most updates are geared towards stability, some contain quest, creature, and ability names, so be prepared for mild spoilers as you scroll down. The God of War Ragnarök day-one patch is 745MBs in size, Gadgets 360 can confirm, while the entire game is north of 80GB.
The patch, detailed on Santa Monica Studio’s website, lists several changes to gameplay, quests, UI, stability and performance, cinematics, audio, and dialogue. During the quest for Týr, the son of Odin, players are supposed to travel to dwarf Durlin’s office, which is a short boat ride away. Once you dock it along the shore and enter the office, God of War Ragnarök is supposed to trigger a cutscene where Kratos and now-teenaged son Atreus meet up with him. The developers have now fixed the case where sometimes the cinematic would not play.
