God of War Ragnarok's game length reportedly leaked

sportskeeda.com:

A sequel to the phenomenal 2018 soft-reboot of the franchise, God of War Ragnarok is easily one of the most anticipated video games of 2022, with fans around the world eagerly awaiting the title's release to witness the grand conclusion to Kratos' Norse saga. Amidst all this hype and anticipation, the game's length has reportedly been leaked.

The previous title, albeit being a linear story-driven adventure, was fairly lengthy and featured plenty of side content, including some amazing and tough end-game boss battles.

While both PlayStation and Santa Monica Studio have been tight-lipped about anything regarding the game's narrative and quests, recent leaks suggest that the upcoming game will be equally big and offer players a rich variety of content to dive into.

God of War (2018), despite being a linear title, featured a 15-20 hour long narrative, with around 10 to 15 hours worth of side content that players can indulge in right after finishing the main campaign. This effectively brought the length of the game to a respectable 30-35 hour mark, which, while delivering enough content to justify its $60 price, never outstays its welcome.

It seems that with the sequel, God of War Ragnarok, Santa Monica Studio is taking a similar approach to the game's length and structure. Based on recent leaks, the game will be around 40 hours long, including all the side content for players to enjoy.

The length is clearly more than the previous title, which is justified, given that in Ragnarok, players will be able to journey to all the realms, including the ones that were unavailable in the last game. This includes Svartalheim, Vanaheim, and Asgard, with each realm offering their own fair share of stories and content.
