Is God of War Ragnarök_manifest.zip safe?
No antivirus engine detected this ZIP archive, although its very recent appearance and lack of runtime analysis warrant ordinary caution before extraction.
All 75 antivirus engines produced zero malicious or suspicious detections, including the reporting tier-1 products. No external intelligence matched the archive, but it is newly observed and lacks runtime or contacted-host evidence, so extract it only if its source is expected.

Before opening or extracting
Open or extract it only when its sender or download source has been independently verified.
If you already opened or extracted it
Keep normal device protection enabled and stop if the file behaves unexpectedly.

The reasoning behind this verdict
This section explains the evidence supporting the verdict and keeps conflicting or missing signals visible.
All 75 antivirus engines produced zero malicious or suspicious detections, including the reporting tier-1 products. No external intelligence matched the archive, but it is newly observed and lacks runtime or contacted-host evidence, so extract it only if its source is expected.
The strongest evidence is the absence of detections across 75 antivirus engines, with zero tier-1 flags and 14 tier-1 products reporting no detection. MalwareBazaar, CIRCL, and YARAify supplied no corroborating threat intelligence. Five earlier ZIP examples also received favorable decisions, although file-type-only similarity carries limited weight. The archive was first observed today and has only one submission, so its reputation remains immature. No sandbox run completed, and no contacted-host reputation result is available, preventing conclusions about runtime activity or network destinations.
What We Detected
No malicious or suspicious result appeared among 75 antivirus engines. Fourteen tier-1 engines reported no detection, including BitDefender, ESET-NOD32, Kaspersky, Microsoft, and Fortinet. MalwareBazaar, CIRCL, and YARAify returned no matching intelligence or rules.
Threat Behavior
No completed sandbox observation is available because behaviour is null. The contacted-host check is also unavailable, so the archive's runtime actions and any network destinations cannot be characterized. As a ZIP archive, it may contain files whose individual behavior is not established by the container-level result.
What To Do Now
Confirm that the archive came from an expected, reputable source before extraction. Keep endpoint protection enabled, scan extracted files individually, and avoid running unexpected executables, scripts, or shortcuts contained inside.
Where this verdict could be wrong3 caveats
- The archive is ageDays=0 with only 1 submission, so reputation has not had time to develop.
- behaviour=null means its contents were not observed executing, and contactedHosts=null means no complete host-reputation result is available.
- The five prior safe examples are linked only by matchKind=filetype, which is weak similarity for ZIP archives.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- 0/75 antivirus engines reported malicious or suspicious results
- engines.tier1Malicious=0
- 14 tier-1 engines reported no detection
- No MalwareBazaar, CIRCL, or YARAify hit
- No brand mismatch or fired heuristic
- First observed today with only one recorded submission
- No completed runtime analysis
- No contacted-host reputation cross-check
- ZIP contents may require separate scanning after extraction
If the source is expected, scan the extracted contents and inspect file extensions before opening anything. Keep endpoint protection enabled and discard the archive if it contains unexpected executables or scripts.
