After a reviewer recently leaked some footage from God of War Ragnarok, some retail stores have started selling the game two weeks ahead of schedule.
Of course, this caused a lot of clips and images to appear on social media and YouTube platforms, as many who got their copy very early began posting various clips of the game containing scenes that spoiled the full experience.
director Cory Barlog He expressed his displeasure with this move, which he described as a harsh lesson in putting full game data on a Blu-ray disc, citing Activision's recently criticized move on the Modern Warfare 2 discs, which only put 70 MB of the game's size on the disc to ensure that the content would not leak early through retail stores as happened with God of War Ragnarok.
Did you know?! At the moment, I can really understand the benefit of having an installer on the physical disc only. Retailers sell the game out about two weeks before release. It's very frustrating...
Barlog has warned players who want to enjoy the full experience of the game to try to avoid watching videos and images that started appearing online a few days ago. At the same time, we believe that Sony will do its best to delete the leaked videos of the game from social media and YouTube platforms, but as you know, what goes on the internet stays on the internet, so you will have to be careful until the time remaining until the game's release.
God of War Ragnarok launches on PlayStation on Wednesday, November 9, while our full (non-recorded) review will be available on the evening of Thursday, November 3. Until then, you can also check out some interesting reports and our first impressions of the game here.
