It’s your last chance to secure your copy of God of War: Ragnarok, the latest and greatest “Dad-sim”, if you want to claim those sweet, sweet pre-order bonuses.
With its release date slated for November 9, the final instalment of God of War’s Norse saga will revolve around Kratos’ son, Atreus, who seeks to learn more about his role in the looming battle of Ragnarok. If you’ve been following along with the games or have an inkling about Norse mythology, you’ll know that Ragnarok spells out a sequence of disastrous events that will lead to the end of the world.
As Kratos, you’ll need to step up to be the father Atreus deserves, all while battling Nordic gods and monsters in fluid, cutthroat combat. Your trusty Leviathan Axe will make a mighty comeback alongside your Blade of Chaos and Guardian Shield, now imbued with more abilities than before (thanks to a couple of Dwarven brothers).
Kotaku Australia’s David and Ruby have been hyping up the game ever since they got their hands on Ragnarok‘s early review copies. It’s a masterpiece and you can read all about it (spoiler-free) from their review here.
Take it from us – you need to lock in your God of War pre-orders now.

Where to find God of War Collector’s Edition in Australia
Unfortunately, if you were hoping to find a lead on where to nab the elusive Collector’s or Jotnar Edition of God of War, you won’t find one here or anywhere else in Australia. While you can look to online marketplaces such as eBay, you’ll find that many of the prices have been scaled up by resellers.
It’s a real shame, considering that both editions had such cool merch, including a 16-inch replica of Mjölner, a Dwarven dice set and a Knowledge Keeper’s Shrine. It was honestly one of the best special edition goodie boxes we’ve seen in a long time, so it sucks that there’s been such a limited supply.
But if we do spot any on sale, we’ll be sure to update this piece to let you all know. Fingers crossed.
