Jetpack Interactive has released Title Update 6 for the PC version of God of War Ragnarok. This patch brings visual improvements and performance increases on AMD’s older Zen CPUs. So, let’s take a closer look at it.
According to the devs, Patch 6 will improve performance of AMD Zen1 and Zen2 processors in areas where the game was CPU limited. This will definitely please a lot of AMD PC users out there. Moreover, the update increases tessellation in Realm Between Realms back to PS5 quality. As such, the PC version will not look inferior, in any way, to the PS5 version.
Patch 6 also improves overall stability. For instance, it fixes a crash that would occur in various locations in Vanaheim. It also fixes a crash in UI when opening certain Journal pages.
The devs have also fixed an issue where cinematic dialogue audio would be lower volume than intended. Plus, attack indicators will now look correct when using frame generation. Thus, you’ll be able to use Frame Generation in order to boost your in-game performance.
From what I could see, this patch does not pack any additional optimizations. To its credit, the game performed great when it came out. Or at least it ran smoothly on our PC system.
Like always, Steam will download this update the next time you launch its client. Below you can also find its complete changelog.
God of War Ragnarok Patch 6 Release Notes

- Fixed a crash that would occur in various locations in Vanaheim

Does it fix Kratos riding b@tch behind Freya on a horse, having his annoying kid tell him off over and over again, the young adult Disney + segments and the diversity hires in Norse myth that would be called cultural appropriation by Sweet Baby Inc if the situation was reversed?
lmao you wish man, we're going to have to re-reboot the franchise when we win back the culture war
A GOW reboot with an actual white man dubbing Kratos? One can dream…
I thought you liked the OG voice actor. It's just about good talent mate.
I’m not into slippery slopes, you can’t have talented white people dubbing people from other races so i want to return the favor.
Ah! I get that now. Let's wait till Elon does make a game studio like he said he'll do
Lmao that zionist hack? He treats conservatives and right wingers as marks.
TC carson the Goat! Man. I remember the first time I heard that voice I grow mustache & beard in instant
Trying to replay new game plus but the annoying disrespectful and lack of discipline with the boy is frustrating. He’s over 1000 years old. And taking crap from a 12 year old idiot who keeps making mistakes. Beat yo kids. Seriously. Game made by too many anti-masculine soft woke betas who let their kids walk all over them.
Lol, is this like a dad simulator?
For mentally ill women who live alone, pop pills, drink wine out of a box and consider their cat their "child" who they post pictures of on social media all day? Yes. For men this is a guide on how to raise a child that changes his gender, has a life expectancy of 30-40 and who just might turn on you and his entire family in a Bolshevik like revolution.
This game didn't teach Dad's how to be fathers it made most young men probably never want to have children, which is probably the real goal and intent behind the financial backing and DEI discounted loans that they know will never be paid back. No problem for the banks though because the "left" and "right" will both bail them out and they pass inflation on to you. It hurts the minorities they claim to champion the most.
Want to be a good father? There can only be one ship captain. Want to land a good wife? Don't agree with her on everything, tell her no and stand up for what you believe in. It's why women have gone mental with weird romance novels about werewolves and vampires and all that nonsense. We are biologically programmed this way and going against that breaks people. Again, that is probably the point of the propaganda in the first place.
Some things you've said are absolute on point. Wonder why animals don't have trans genderism?… Cause its an error. There are two genders universally. One is meant to Protect and other is meant to Breed and Care. Simple. Men will always think about survival, challenge, brute work, helping others. Women will always listen to their heart. They're bound to it on cellular level since the dawn of mankind cause they have to feed and care for young ones. They can give birth. They're naturally drawn to it. That's why they're vulnerable. When governments formed, they knew this natural phenomena and decided to control it for their selfishness. That has reached ridiculous levels now in some countries and that's blasphemy. In the west, people have thrown their common sense and that's laughable worldwide. I'm glad I followed Indian soulful culture long ago and it made me calm and reasonable person albeit NOT like Kratos lol
“If you don’t want to lose your son you have to trust him and let him run off and do stupid crap.”
It equates your 1000 year old father withholding info as the same as a 12 year old idiot child lying to his dad.
Just tons of complete annoying garbage. I literally would have beat him if he were my son.
Woke people can't have kids! They steal kids
Sadly, no.
Some fat, ugly woman who can't stand gore and blood decided to take over a gritty and violent franchise. Now we're being gaslit that all of these pink and purple colors, all of these Fortnite character designs that bleed orange goo as a way of censorship, and the f4g favorite, soul-like combat system are artistic choices.
Not artistic choices, monetary/economic choices ("and that's a good thing"). Remember when you used to make those arguments?
Ignoring the fact that you can’t express yourself well in English, I don’t remember saying I want to play games like Fortnite with a souls-like combat system.
To be real honest with you, a couple of years ago, I had a super hot girlfriend who ate my as*hole on a daily basis. She was very left-leaning and influenced my decision-making in a lot of ways, but I also get a kick out of making nerds like you angry. So, even though we broke up and I became an incel like the good folks on this site, I went through a phase of sympathy and understanding.
Having said that, I will always support any practice that makes companies more money, including putting 100 tr4nnies in your games.
“I will always support any practice that makes companies more money”
Enjoy your Souls like Fortnite with 100 tr@nnies then.
why? I can easily ignore them and play games I want to play.
You could, but you don’t.
here’s the list of games installed on my ssd right now :
dos2, bg3, dow2 eternal mod, coh1, silent hill 2, warhammer 3, fear 1, xcom 2, ready or not, wasteland 3, crysis 3 and no one lives forever 1
I’m going to add avp2, dark descent or alien isolation to the list soon. There are a lot of good games out there.
Great stuff, time to start playing then.
No, I’m going to an4l masturbate first then I have a few things to do
You can join me later babe
I have seen reports that performance already improved with the stable release of SteamOS 3.6 which Valve finally managed to ship after almost a year of development, and this patch should then boost it further on the Steam Deck's Zen 2 CPU cores.
Cats have 9 lives and god of war will have 9 patches.
Imagine.
A game, that originally came out in 2022, that still needs 6 patches in 2024 to get it working properly on PC.
A game, that takes ages to load, requiring 190GB of storage space, just so you can get bombarded with non-stop cinematic spam that interrupts gameplay.
A game, that has SBI stuffed into its narrative, so you can get lectured by some purple-haired nitwit feminist after paying money for the game.
Imagine playing this bloated slop. You have to be autistic to enjoy this, you truly have to be. Today's AAA gaming and Sony trash is so disgusting.
>so you can get lectured by some purple-haired nitwit feminist after paying money for the game
Implying I paid a cent for it 😉
who said anything about money and payment and all those blasphemous nonsenses?
The rest is valid, but the load times are pretty quick.
190 is for the installer. 100 for the game after a quick google and I think the game was 85 on my PS5 at launch ( I won't be buying a PS6 as all the franchises I loved are dead). All games now have this problem on PC. Many developers used to offer a custom install based on language and Steam still allows that but the devs stopped doing it.
If the devs hired people with fully functioning brains they would talk to Steam and could just add additional languages as free DLC and it could be automatic based on browser language. By making them DLC they could easily add them if someone speaks another language in the house and wants to play the game, which is the reason they stopped supporting the custom installs.
Instead they have made pirated versions SUPERIOR.
Anyways I'm going to laugh if someone releases the UAE version of Spiderman 2 on torrents with English. I'm going to guess quests like setting up two dudes on a date ain't present. The media will run articles about evil people releasing mods that Nexus removes when Disney already did that for entire countries so they could make a buck.
"Instead they have made pirated versions SUPERIOR."
I get the point, but it always was, they just made piracy even better thanks to their incompetence. My favorite pieces of piracy is the direct play- no install versions, better than a repack imo.
"Anyways I'm going to laugh if someone releases the UAE version of Spiderman 2 on torrents with English.'
Are there other games with gayless versions? Maybe setting up a VPN would work?
You have mod sites that pretty much allow anything like basedmods, moddinghaven. It's the only place you can download things like turning Sirona from the Harry Potter game back into a woman by reversing the obvious pitchedit they did to try to appease people that boycotted them anyways or the removal of the rainbow flags all over Spiderman 1.
So yeah the Arabic changes will probably be released on day 1 and they will be banned off nexus and the media will call everyone phobes and ists and permaban anyone off forums and reddit saying this was the UAE version of the game. Why? Cus the clowns who own reddit also own Teen Vogue. The Newhouse family.
They have a white Angrboda like Norse mythology mod there as well but I'm ever playing GOW Rag again. Sitting through the cutscenes was bad enough the first time. Couldn't tell you how well it works with cutscenes and mouth rigging or it it even works.
Does anyone know if they added the dynamic cube map system (used on ps5 fidelity/30fps mode) or it's still using ssr for reflections?
the game is a disaster I played the original on my laptop and it ran just fine but this port has too many vram leaks if your system is mid tear or low end then sorry my friend your out of luck so far but all these reviews online just cant get tired of praising the port ?
Needs a patch to remove SBI.
