God of War Ragnarok was already quite stable when it launched, the game only had a small number of major bugs that needed ironing out, after which it is quite rare for players to run into anything game-breaking. Ragnarok has been killing it since its release, winning numerous awards across the board. The only game that has been topping Ragnarok in terms of awards is, of course, Elden Ring.
Update 4.01 for God of War Ragnarok is available on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 exclusively. For more information on future updates and patch notes, head over to the official God of War Ragnarok website here.
