Will the special editions of 'God of War: Ragnarok' restock?

As is the case with most big video game releases, it didn't take long after preorders for God of War: Ragnarok went live before scalpers bought up many of the game's special editions, leaving some fans without the additional bonuses they were hoping for.

Because of this, many are left feeling as though they'll have to pay the upscaled price for their wanted edition of the game — but will Sony be restocking the special editions?

At the time of writing, the Collector's Edition of the game is still available at most retailers, but the Jötnar Edition is sold out even on PlayStation Direct.

While Sony has not made an official announcement at this time as to whether or not the game will be restocked, the notification consumers receive when trying to add the item to their cart reads "Availability may vary in the future."

While this isn't a confirmation that the game will be restocked, given that it has only been available for preorder for a short period of time, it's likely Sony may release another wave of the Jötnar Edition.

Before paying scalper prices for the upcoming title, it may be worth it to wait for more information from Sony, as there is still plenty of time before the game releases to place a preorder.
