New God of War Ragnarok PS5, PS4 Patch Unlocks New Game+ Armor Set | Push Square

pushsquare.com:

Santa Monica Studio has revealed a new God of War Ragnarok patch will go live for PS5, PS4 consoles tomorrow (30th January 2025) that brings forward the ability to transmog your gear and access to an armour set previously exclusive to New Game+.

Having downloaded the update, the Armor of the Black Bear set will be available to claim in a normal playthrough from the first Lost Items chest you encounter. This set was previously only found in a New Game+ run, but that requirement has now been dropped. Additionally, the transmogrification system, which allows you to change a piece of armour's appearance into something else while retaining the original's stats, will be available straight away from the beginning of the game. Previously, you'd need to fully upgrade the armour to level 9 to unlock the ability.

This update also applies to the PC version, which exclusively brings with it bonuses for logging into a PSN account when playing on PC. You'll get the Armor of the Black Bear set, 500 Hacksilver, and 250 XP. God of War Ragnarok recently came to PS Plus Extra, opening the game up to a wider audience. Have you been playing the game via the service? Let us know in the comments below.

Liam grew up with a PlayStation controller in his hands and a love for Metal Gear Solid. Nowadays, he's found playing the latest and greatest PS5 games as well as supporting Derby County. That last detail is his downfall.

Between this and those PC updates, I think Sony's new goal is pretty clear: release their games on PC (and possibly other systems) but lock SOMETHING to the PS5/PS account requirement. Can't be big enough for people to complain, but it can't be too small so that completionists won't want it.

Almost like how Marvel Rivals has an exclusive PS5 skin.

Wonder when we will get an updated sales numbers, game has to be close to 20 million sound after the PC release.
