God of War Ragnarok received a subtle update

God of War Ragnarok has received a silent update that expands support for PlayStation 5 system features.

Santa Monica Studio has responded to a PS5 system feature after some time, making Power Saver mode available for one of the platform’s most significant exclusives.

Power Saver is gradually expanding among PlayStation exclusive titles

Update 06.06 brings a single, yet clearly defined change to God of War Ragnarok. The game is now compatible with the Power Saver mode on PS5 and PS5 Pro consoles, which was introduced to the system last year via a firmware update. The patch contains no changes to gameplay, graphics, or stability; its purpose is purely systemic.

Active support for Power Saver mode is easily recognizable after installing the update. A leaf symbol appears on the game tile, signaling the title's readiness to operate in energy-saving mode. The feature itself reduces power consumption during gameplay without significantly impacting the user experience, which is why Sony has been expanding support gradually, primarily for its own titles.

The Power Saver mode was added to the PlayStation 5 system with the goal of reducing the console's energy footprint when playing demanding games. The list of supported titles remains relatively short, dominated mainly by first-party projects. Including God of War Ragnarok in the group of compatible games confirms that Sony and its internal studios are continuing their long-term optimization strategy.
