Following the release of the PS5 Pro patch for God of War Ragnarok that was released earlier this month that also included various bug fixes, Santa Monica Studio has pushed out a new patch for the game today, and for the first time ever, both the PS5 and PC versions got one. God of War Ragnarok update 6.001 is now available for download on PS5, while those on PC will be prompted to download Patch 7.

Upon our inspection, there is no patch available for the PS4 version of the game, which is odd, given both the PS4 and PS5 versions have been receiving patch parity since the game was released.

Unfortunately, Santa Monica Studio has not released any patch notes just yet, though we’re assuming this is somehow connected to the PS5 Pro’s performance given the patch is exclusive to the PS5 version

As for Patch 7, here’s what’s new per port developer, Jetpack Interactive:

  • Added more detection for corrupted files during content loading with a warning to user to validate files
  • Fixed an issue where the window location would not be saved upon subsequent launches when running in windowed mode
  • Fixed an issue where the camera would drift when playing with mouse and alt-tabbing
  • Fixed issues with volumetric fog looking blocky when playing in 21:9 or 32:9 aspect ratios
  • Fixed an issue with interact/evade swapping not working when using SteamInput
  • Fixed an issue with on screen prompts not properly reflecting correct button prompts when using Switch controller and SteamInput
  • Fixed Quick Turn buttons not working with SteamInput
  • Fixed an issue where bindings using mouse scroll would get unset upon relaunching the game
  • Improved performance on Intel ARC GPUs (has very minor improvement on NVIDIA and AMD)
  • Fixed a number of visual bugs such as the water at the bottom of Alfheim well not appearing properly

Once we find something that got changed even if it’s unofficial, we’ll update the article with the info. Hopefully Santa Monic Studio releases the official changelog soon.
