God of War Ragnarok is easily one of the most anticipated games for a lot of people right now, with there being lots of speculation on whether it will release in 2022 or get delayed. Game producer Cory Barlog recently returned to Twitter after a short break and has teased playing the game.
Barlog served as lead animator on the originalGod of Wargame before taking on game director duties with the sequel. He stepped down as director after that before returning to the series as director for theGod of Warreboot in 2018.
He once again stepped back from directorial duties for the upcomingGod of War Ragnarok, but has stayed on board as a producer. This means he will still play a major role in the game itself and no doubt would be getting to test out the game early.
Barlog Returns From Twitter Hiatus
Twitter can be a fantastic way to stay connected with your favorites in the gaming industry, with Barlog undoubtedly being a fan favorite.
Sometimes it can be a little too distracting and Barlog recently took a hiatus from the social media platform for a few months before returning just the other day to respond to a tweet claiming they heardGod of War Ragnarokwould not be releasing in 2022as is supposedly planned.
As you can see, the person who tweeted the potential delay was David Jaffe, director of the firstGod of Warand creative director ofGod of War II. Interestingly enough,God of War IIwas when Cory Barlog took over as game director for that one, so they have worked together in the past.
The fact that he returned from his three-month Twitter hiatus to respond to this caught the attention of many people, especially after he used a smirking Ryan Reynolds gif as the response to that as well.
Barlog quickly returned to regular tweeting upon his return, including a cryptic tease that could mean he is playingGod of War Ragnarokright now.
Passing on playing a newly arrived Steam Deck would be tough to do, but havingGod of War Ragnarokas the alternative could make that decision very easy.
This could easily just be trolling on Barlog’s part to make us think he’s talking aboutRagnarokwhen he really isn’t. However, his propensity for teasing on Twitter makes us think he likely is referring to the much-awaitedGod of Warsequel.
