Frequently Asked Questions – God of War Ragnarök (v1.0.668.5700)

Is God of War Ragnarök completely free?

Yes, the pre-installed PC build listed here is available as a free download at version v1.0.668.5700. You can still support Santa Monica Studio by purchasing the game on Steam if you want to.

How do I install God of War Ragnarök?

Download the 112.5 GB package, extract it into a folder excluded from your antivirus and Windows Defender, install the redistributables from the Redist or _CommonRedist folder, then launch God of War Ragnarok.exe as administrator. A detailed Installation Guide.txt is included inside the game files.

How much storage do I need for God of War Ragnarök?

The download is 112.5 GB and the installed game needs roughly 190 GB of available space. Because you need room for both the archive and the extracted files during setup, plan for well over 300 GB of free space on your drive.

Does this version include the Valhalla DLC?

The current package is listed at v1.0.668.5700 and we have not confirmed Valhalla DLC inclusion in this build. Check the discussion thread before downloading if that content is essential to you.

Why am I getting checksum errors after extraction?

Checksum errors usually come from an incomplete download or from antivirus software scanning files mid-extraction. Re-download the affected parts, extract into an excluded folder, and verify the archive before extracting again.

Why is my DualSense controller showing Xbox button prompts?

This is a known behavior when launching through Steam as a non-Steam shortcut. Launching God of War Ragnarok.exe directly from the game folder typically preserves the correct PlayStation button prompts.
