God of War Ragnarok lands on PC today, and it looks like Sony has been listening to some of the feedback from players over the last couple of years, as the PC version will finally let you shut your companions up during puzzles...for a while.
Per the PlayStation Blog, one of the new features you can expect from God of War Ragnarok on PC is a new option in the Settings tab that will "reduce the frequency with which you hear puzzle hints from your companions".
Given how straightforward many of God of War Ragnarok's puzzles were, this feels like a very welcome change indeed. If you're a PS5 player and you feel left out, don't worry; Sony says this change, along with others, is "soon to be added to the console version".
Two other new features are also being introduced in God of War Ragnarok's PC version. The first, Cinematic Audio Description, is an accessibility feature that plays "audio descriptions of visual events during cinematics".
If you're a streamer, you'll appreciate the other new feature, which consists of custom God of War Ragnarok-themed alerts you can use for your stream. They feature Kratos, Atreus, Thor, and Fenrir.
Sony is also handing out some God of War wallpapers and social media banners to commemorate the launch of the PC version. You can grab the God of War Ragnarok Fan Kit, as Sony is calling it, right here.
God of War Ragnarok is the followup to the 2018 God of War reboot, and as the title suggests, it sees Kratos and his son Atreus attempting to deal with the impending arrival of the titular apocalyptic scenario.
The game was released on PlayStation consoles in 2022, garnering critical acclaim (not least from us) and selling 11 million copies into the bargain.
You can check out God of War Ragnarok on PC when it launches via Steam later today (as long as you've got the machine to run it), and it's also available on PlayStation. Stay tuned for more.
