The way to fix the screen tearing in GoW Ragnarok is to turn on Favours Quality graphics mode. So if your monitor and game are mismatched, VSync is present to automatically correct the screen tearing error. This is due to the mode running with VSync off. In God of War Ragnarok, screen tearing can occur when trying to run the game's Favour Performance graphics mode. Thanks to an explanation made in a Reddit thread by U/WaaghMan, we have a specific explanation as to why screen tearing might be happening in God of War Ragnarok, along with how to fix it.

This can occur in different circumstances depending on the game, but screen tearing happens when the Hz and resolution of your monitor are out of sync with the game due to a mismatch.

Screen tearing is nothing new and has happened to various PS5 games.
