Now that God of War Ragnarok has a confirmed release date for November 9, 2022, the game’s various editions have been revealed for pre-order. There are multiple versions of the title, including two editions offering a 16” replica of Thor’s mighty weapon, Mjolnir.

This fits, as Thor is being set up to be the primary antagonist of the Norse storyline finale, but which versions come with the weapon?


Two editions of God of War Ragnarok offer 16” Mjolnir replica

While there are several editions of God of War Ragnarok to purchase, neither the Standard nor the Digital Deluxe editions come with the hammer in question.

Instead, fans must look towards the Collector’s Edition or the Jötnar Edition. These two come with a vast assortment of physical items, as well as the hammer of Thor, Mjolnir.

The God of War Ragnarok Collector’s Edition comes in a box representing the Knowledge Keeper’s Shrine and contains various physical items for the owner. It is also said to cost $200.

There’s a more expensive version, though, for the most hardcore fans of the franchise. The Jötnar Edition has more items, such as The Legendary Draupnir Ring, which comes in a red cloth bag.

It makes sense that Mjolnir would be offered as a physical item, given how important Thor is to the story of God of War Ragnarok. The strong but portly God lost his half-brother in the previous game when Baldur was slain.

Kratos has also killed Thor’s son, Magni, and Thor wants blood in recompense. Thor’s other son, Modi, was killed not by Kratos but by Atreus.

In the True Ending of God of War (2018), Thor appears in a dream about the future. He shows up at the home of Kratos and Atreus, conjuring up a powerful storm and wielding Mjolnir.

Kratos has slain many of the thunder god’s family, so it’s not unlikely to see God of War Ragnarok’s primary antagonist being the mighty son of Odin.
