Starfield was delayed nicely earlier than the announcement of God of Conflict Ragnarok’s launch date so the 2 haven’t any correlation, particularly since there was solely going to be a two-day distinction between them. One believable principle for releasing the sport on the ninth is that Wednesday is called after Odin and Norse mythology has 9 realms so a launch date of Wednesday, the ninth, would slot in with God of Conflict Ragnarok’s theme.
Maybe, this last-minute change was the rationale Sony delayed the discharge date’s announcement to start with. At this level, players are most likely well-aware of the hoopla surrounding God of Conflict Ragnarok’s PS Weblog publish, which was imagined to go up on June thirtieth however ended up being pushed to July sixth. A bizarre principle floating round for the delay was the U.S. Supreme Court docket’s Roe vs. Wade ruling however we’re unsure how that connection was shaped.
“I heard after the announcement that it was certainly deliberate for 11/11/22, and that the sudden launch change to 11/9/22 was why they bumped again the announcement from June 30 to the week after,” Jason Schreier wrote on ResetEra. “Not 100% certain why they moved it. I believe it was extra of a logistical factor relatively than something to do with Starfield.”
In different information, a federal decide has dismissed a lawsuit towards Sony over PS Retailer obtain monopoly, and PS5 generated the best greenback gross sales within the U.S. within the first half of 2022.
