Santa Monica Studio Posts Patch Notes of God of War: Ragnarok v. 02.01

It’s been a few days since God of War: Ragnarok was launched. Two game updates have been launched ever since, the second one exclusively for PlayStation 5 consoles. These updates mostly fixed minor in-game bugs and glitches. 

Santa Monica Studio has released the v. 02.01 Patch Notes of God of War: Ragnarok for PlayStation 5. 

Stability and Performance

• Fixed a rare crash that could occur at the end of the first boss fight.
• Fixed a crash that could appear randomly during gameplay.

Polish Language Support

• Added Polish language audio support for players that purchased the game on disc in Poland.
• Note: Please ensure that the game is fully installed from the disc or network and patched to version 2.01 before enabling the Polish language in the Speech-Language settings.
  • If the game is not fully installed there will be no audio or subtitles for the in-game dialog.
  • To correct this, please close the app and restart once the game is fully installed and the patch installation is complete.

The update is a little over 200 MB. Players had hoped it would fix the issue that prevents a difficulty change mid-game, but sadly, this still needs to be resolved. Players reported no change even after changing the difficulty level mid-game, leaving them no choice but to restart their games as a last resort. 

The studio stated a subsequent patch for PlayStation 4 would be released very soon. God of War: Ragnarok has been a huge success among fans, even breaking sales records in the UK. 

God of War: Ragnarok is available on PS4 and PS5.
