God of War Ragnarok is one of the most anticipated titles for PlayStation users: everything we have seen so far is only a short teaser of the game, which should be released by the end of this year. Regarding the target console, the hypothesis of a choice by Sony to make Ragnarok available on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 is becoming increasingly popular.
A few weeks ago it was Jim Ryan himself who raised some doubts about it, glossing over a question related to the PS5 exclusivity of the new God of War. Today it is instead to expose itself David Jaffe, a former Santa Monica developer who worked on the first two chapters of the series: while streaming on Twitch, Jaffe said he was sure that the next God of War will be available for PS4 and PS5, then reiterating how Jim Ryan's statements on the matter were quite clear.
Seems like #GodOfWarRagnarok will be cross-gen title after all!
“I'm sure the next #GodofWar will be # PS4, # PS5. Of course it will ”david jaffe says.

A news that would confirm the willingness to support PlayStation 4 again for the next few months, with many of the 2021 titles that will be released on both platforms, taking advantage of the considerable installed base of PS4 and a gap in performance still not extremely pronounced.
Obviously all this information has not yet received official confirmation from Sony or Santa Monica: if you want to speculate, it is possible that the eventual confirmation of the cross-gen nature will arrive once the final phase of the development work is reached, that is, when there will be a more accurate release date.
