Our best estimate<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>God of War 2018 received New Game Plus in August 2018, four months after the game was released in April.<\/p>\n<p>Going by a similar timeframe, we can expect God of War Ragnar\u00f6k to get New Game Plus in <strong>spring 2023<\/strong>, possibly around March.<\/p>\n<p>We assume that Ragnar\u00f6k will have similar New Game Plus content to its predecessor, with new armour sets, increased loot rarity levels and a higher power level cap for Kratos. New crafting resources, loot options and general enemy behaviour improvements are also likely.<\/p>\n<p>Check back, however, as we\u2019ll update this page as soon as we get any official news on New Game Plus for God of War Ragnar\u00f6k!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read more on God of War:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul><li><a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/god-of-war-ragnarok-review\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\"><strong>God of War Ragnarok review<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0\u2013 our final verdict<\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/god-of-war-ragnarok-cast\/&quot;\">God of War Ragnarok cast<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 all voice actors<\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/god-of-war-ragnarok-trophies-list\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">God of War Ragnarok trophy guide<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 get the platinum<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/god-of-war-ragnarok-ending-kratos\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\"><strong>God of War Ragnarok ending explained<\/strong><\/a><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 is there a secret scene?<\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/god-of-war-ragnarok-ps4\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">God of War Ragnarok PS4<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 how good is the last-gen version?<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/god-of-war-ragnarok-play-time\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\"><strong>God of War Ragnarok play time<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0\u2013 how many hours?<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/god-of-war-ragnarok-thor-height\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\"><strong>How tall is Thor in God of War Ragnarok?<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/god-of-war-ragnraok-kratos-age\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\"><strong>How old is Kratos in God of War Ragnarok?<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/god-of-war-ragnarok-pc\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\"><strong>When will God of War Ragnarok come to PC?<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/god-of-war-pc-review\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">God of War PC review<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 is it worth playing?<\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/god-of-war-pc-requirements-specs\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">God of War PC requirements<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 all the specs you need<\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/god-of-war-pc-controls-keybindings\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">God of War PC controls<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 full list of key bindings<\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/god-of-war-games-in-order\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">God of War games in order<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 play them all<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Hungry for more gaming?
