Customer Ratings & Reviews

Everything about this game is great. Story, graphics and controls are top notch. A different spin on the God of War franchise works out.

God of War have always been excellent. This is no exception. Killer graphics, great story and great controls. Super fun to play. Go buy.

Then again, I was reminded of the fact that we don't get a father-son story often and the writers were conscious to make an enriching story. That's what I appreciate as much as the gameplay. Mechanics are familiar and improved, as expected.

Its weird, over always like God of War but the character of Kratos was always pretty one note, but they really turned things around. This game has very good combat, just as on the past but it very different. It's closer, heavier and feels nice and meaty. Your attacks weight and enemies feel more like threats, even the weaker ones. Outside of combat, the story is very interesting and kept me engrossed the whole way through. This is one game I wish had DLC, because I just want to play more of it.

I'll be honest... I've played all of the other instalments of G.O.W., on previous platforms and I was pretty much over it. So, I avoided this PS4 title for awhile now. Purchased this for a friend on sale, but found out after that he already has it?! Well, I've spent $20.00 on worse things and decided to give it a chance. The visuals and story are pretty rad, as well as, the addition of his offspring as an intermittently playable character. Still a button masher, but tons of fun!!

The newest God of War title is one of the most heartfelt, action packed, and well written pieces of video game entertainment to come around this console generation. The story is endearing, dramatic but also small in scope. The world is vast and able to be explored at your leisure without feeling daunting like some other massive open-world games. The combat is tight and fluid with many different options to customize armor, spells and passive buffs. I can't recommend this game hard enough, smash that buy button folks.

Great story, great gameplay, great characters. Combat is far more tactical this time around, focusing on dodging, parrying, and counters rather than wildly smashing buttons. Combat is less flashy than I remember but still just as satisfying. If there was one disappointing point for me it would be how Atreus ("Boy") is used in combat. There seemed to be little tactics or strategy in using him or his ability. There was almost no reason to not use his attacks on CD and it felt just like filler button spam.

GOW 4 is a visually stunning game that adds a new storyline filled with emotion and plenty of action.

This game is a terrific game. Possibly the best console graphics to date with a wonderful and exciting story, with good controls.

Fans of the series from its PS2 and PS3 days will not be disappointed. One of the best games of this console generation. The story is engaging and the combat is so fluid and visceral. Moving to an open-ish world was a fine choice, and there are always little secrets and side quests you can go off to do, when you need a bit more currency, exp or crafting materials. Oh yeah, this game has crafting! I could go on and on, but just do yourself a favor, and grab this. You will not be disappointed. BOY!

I haven't stopped raving about this game since I started playing! From the get-go, I have been hooked by how exciting and intense this game is! I had never played a previous God of War game, now I feel like I missed out. But regardless, this appears to be it's own story with some great tributes to Kratos' origin. I'm reminded of Last of Us in gameplay and cinematics, but the fighting is more reminiscent of Horizon Zero Dawn? Both are favorite titles of mine so this is a complete success in my book!

This is one of the best action games on PS4, bar none. Whether you like the God of War series or not, this game is fantastic. It reinvents the series as a a mature, well written, yet fun action adventure story. The combat is excellent, and will get hard enough to keep you on your toes. There are also optional enemies and bosses that will push your skills to the limit, but the game can also be enjoyed by folks who are not great at action games. Buy it!

cool graphics ,story,action,monsters,everything a great game to play no doubt about it I highly recommend this tittle.

I have yet to finish the game however I am already so impressed by what I've played so far. The gameplay is fun and can be challenging, the story is told beautifully and the graphics are gorgeous on a ps4 pro. This game feels like Kratos has matured and grown up, he has been able to temper his anger and is much more calculated in what he does. Atreus has made an excellent addition to Kratos story as well. If you are even curious about the new God of War I suggest you pick up a copy asap.

Good graphics, great story, solid controls. Absolutely no complaints, especially at the price I got it!

By far, one of my favorite games. If you have a 4k TV to go along with this game... dude... you're in for a treat. [If you don't, it's still fine. The game will look great too.] The graphics are beautiful-- a work of art, really. The storyline entrances you and naturally makes you want to keep playing it more and more. If you've never played any of the God of War series, don't worry. This will serve as a catalyst to make you want to play the previous titles. This is a must buy, for sure.

I enjoy this game a lot, the picture quality is excellent even for PS4. I played it on PS5 and PS4, the graphics are almost the same, ps5 has a slight edge. Great story and gameplay.

They changed the veiw point of the character and slowed down the combat. It's a more serious "realistic" perspective on the story. He's got a kid now and he helps you out and you help him out. Even though it looks completely different and handles a lot different in combat, I could definitely tell it was a God of war game because of the good story telling and way it could make you think about getting through certain situations. Graphics are probably the best I've seen on Ps4 yet.

God of war is the best game of this generation. It has an amazing story full with events that just intrigue you more the more you keep playing. The gameplay is also excellent, as you can play with different weapons and have different attributes on the armors and weapons that allows you to have very diverse ways of attacks. I think that games are good if they have a great story, and a great gameplay. This game has both.

This new installment to the God of War series is well worth the $60 price tag. It innovates upon its predecessors while still nodding back at them throughout the game. I would say that it is a much more story-driven experience than the older God of War games, but you will be so invested in the game that you will barely notice how long the cinematics stretch. This game also has some of the most attractive looking graphics of this generation. It is a must-have for Playstation 4 owners.
