With that said, according to Tim Gettys from Kinda Funny, developers and publishers may be "scared" of God of War Ragnarok. Gettys went on to note that he's had business calls with various people who said things that he was "shocked" by. He stated that developers/publishers were getting out of the way of God of War Ragnarok and "pulling out" of things. He didn't get too specific, but stated that it's all in service of giving God of War Ragnarok its space. Given the game is expected to be a major contender for Game of the Year since its predecessor won the award last time around, its understandable why some publishers may be trying to create distance between the PlayStation exclusive.
God of War Ragnarök might be so big, that games are moving out of their way!

Gettys didn't mention any titles or publishers, but Forspoken recently moved from October to January 2023, something fans speculated could be due to other releases this fall. Ubisoft recently scheduled Skull and Bones for a November 8th release, putting it just one day before God of War Ragnarok and games like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II and Gotham Knights will release several weeks prior.
