Customer Ratings & Reviews

this edition is a great follow up the god of war franchise. the graphics are enriching as well as excellent story and smooth game mechanics as they have improved from the previous generations. if you are a fan of this franchise, you wont be disappointed !!

This new imagining of the God of War franchise is simply amazing. Putting Kratos and his kid in an open-world style game was a stroke of genius. I've barely broke the surface of what this game has to offer, but every adventure is new and exciting. Definitely check this game out!!!

This God of War is quite different than the previous games, but that's what makes it the best in the series. It's a more mature game with incredible graphics and solid controls. Combos are extremely satisfying to pull off and recalling your axe is one of the best features of combat.

They have finally made us car about Kratos after so many games in this series! The action is a bit different, but now it's thoughtful instead of a button/combo masher. Great story so far, and the first Real boss fight is something to behold. Can't wait to see it all the way through!

I have enjoyed playing this game, though at times the customization system can be pretty complex and hard to keep up with. The graphics, story, and action are great though.

This PS4 exclusive is an amazing game from start to finish. Sony Santa Monica has outdone themselves. The story and characters are on par with the amazing visuals. Don’t miss this, especially if you are a fan of the series or even have never played an entry in the series

God of War is a great game to revitalize the franchise. I enjoyed playing the previous games, but I did not think they were the best game out there. They were enjoyable and had an interesting subject matter, but they were mainly meant for the combat. God of War has an intriguing plot line and involves a father-son dynamic which is unlike any other God of War game. Gameplay-wise, the controls and fluidity of combat are well done. The graphics are amazing and I am being challenged with the various difficulty settings. I would recommend this to a friend, although I would not rate it as highly as others (10/10 or 5/5).

I waited to buy this game. because I figured it was just another in the God of War series. It is not. It is something much greater. This was one of the most visually stunning games I have ever played. The story was excellent. It felt more like playing a movie than a game.

It's incredible. It's quite detached from the God of War you may know or love in terms of the actual combat mechanics, but it is 100% still God of War in the violence and brutality of the world. The story is fantastic and the world is so engrossing.. the graphics simply profound.

This game took me a while to get used to seeing as I went from buying a Playstation 3 in 2015 to a Playstation 5 in 2023. I wasn’t used to this style of game but I got used to it. It’s a good game. Beautiful graphics and runs well. I’m def just old tho. Haven’t finished it yet. But I’m please with this addition to the GOW series and look forward to playing the fifth installment of Ragnarok eventually

Coming from someone that played the first and some of the other games in the series, I can truly say how amazing this game is. Definitely pick it up and play the poop out of it. Incredible story. Incredible gameplay. Stellar graphics. You won’t be disappointed!

This a vastly different game from the previous ones in the series, it plays more like Dark Souls and is more story driven then the other hack and slash games in the past. The visuals are amazing and the game play is tight. Definitely worth the current price of the game.

Possible game of the year candidate. I have yet to finish the game, but the 14 hours I have put into it so far have been the best hours I have spent on a game all year. The no-cut camera, fluid combat, fantastic visuals, and impressive story all add up to an amazing experience.

Everything about this game was off the charts. The story, the lore, the graphics, the gameplay. Plus, The new mechanics were very refreshing; so smooth and gratifying once you get a good grip on it's controls. This game is a definite must have for any PlayStation owner

The newest installment in the God of War series is the best. The changes to the gameplay are welcome and don't feel forced or make it a different game altogether. The story and bond between the characters is great, with plenty of twists and jaw-dropping moments. Simply amazing!

Didn't know how I'd feel about this one - it's even tougher to give you guys a review without giving too much away. :) Let's just say, there were some surprises I found very enjoyable within the game and my kind of humor when speaking with the NPCs. The game itself looks gorgeous and I thought the story line was excellent. I did find it a little repetitive at times - not grindy - but not substantially deep with different things to do - typical GoW game, frankly. Absolutely worth playing though and kept true to the gameplay of the originals. Highly recommended, if you have the scratch laying around...

This is a fantastic addition to the existing series. I wasn’t sure of the story line when I first picked it up but as the story progressed it did not disappoint. All in all the graphics, story fighting and the added customization make this game in my option a “Must Have!”

I haven't been hooked on a game in quite some time, but this one certainly has me. It is a stunning game visually and the mechanics and gameplay are top notch. Paired with a great story line and outstanding voice acting, this is easily one of the best games I have ever played.

This game is a masterpiece. I have never used that word for any other game (not even LoU). The gameplay is completely different from the previous "saga". Your main weapon is an axe. You don't really get another weapon like in previous games. You do have a sidekick, your son, which u can control to some extent. Combos are simple but once you get the grasp of it, you can make so much more The story is great. If you played the previous games you know who kratos is. If you haven't, the story gives hints to his past and it will give you a good idea. And his relationship with his son is great. You can see it progress and evolve. Ever since I started playing, I can't get enough. Finding pieces of lore, learning about Norse mythology, visiting the 9 realms, everything is amazing. The best part about this, it's like a movie. There are no loading screens. It just one seamless story. It just goes on and it's hard to put it down.

Great graphics, sounds, gameplay. And an unparalleled story. The combat take some learning but rewards a small amount of patience with fun play where you can see yourself improve without being overly frustrating (if you are going crazy, drop a difficulty level). Love the game.
