Customer Ratings & Reviews

I hadn't realized that I missed Kratos so much until I started playing this game. The graphics are stunning and the gameplay is much better than I remembered from previous God of War games. Having his son as a sidekick in battles is a definite plus. If you haven't purchased this game yet, what are you waiting for?

The boss fights are not on the scale of previous game but they are still fun and provide great experiences. The story has depth as well as the characters. Kratos has really grown as a character. There is alot of content in this game. The game looks and plays great. Atreus is a good addition to the franchise

I haven't gotten far enough yet, but it's been pretty good so far. I don't feel as connected with the story this time around, as it is based on norse mythology and the overall plot / hook at the beginning is insignificant (we're going up the mountain just to spread some ashes for a 2nd wife?) Maybe if Kratos hadn't killed his first wife he wouldn't have to shelp up this mountain. The challenging gods are pretty weak too - some little whiny pathetic demigod who keeps moaning he can't feel pain the whole time is your first boss fight, and it just felt too basic. I feel like they are taking too long in getting me into the game. I hope it's the start of something more epic to come.

I was skeptical when this was first announced. Why continue this series? I still gave it a try and I am so glad I did. This game is so good. Gameplay, graphics, motion capture, writing, setting all perfect. The subtle facial tics when kratos talks to his son.. I've never seen emotion displayed so well in a game.

The game works well. No issues with it. My son plays it with friends.

This is a must have to every PS4 owner out there. One of the best games of this generation... hands down. The hard work put into this game over many years of development shows through every inch of this world. If you don’t own this.. buy it! If you don’t own a PS4.. buy one! A PS4 is worth it for this game alone.

Did not expect it to be a great game, but blew my mind with a great storyline and great gameplay. Although the over the shoulder camera and the combat takes time getting used to and slightly confusing menu and skill graphs, this game never fails to impress. Great visuals on the ps4 pro. Definitely recommend this.

I have played this game for over 30 hours. Although it starts slow and takes some getting used to the new storyline, it picks up and the upgrading elements make it addictive. The graphics are beautiful even on a basic launch PS4. I really loved GOW 3 but this one is an awesome re-imagining that just works.

Initially I wasn’t going to pick up this game because I’ve never really been that interested in God of War games. But my friends kept insisting that I try it. And honestly, it’s pretty good. I won’t say it’s without flaws but God of War is an enjoyable experience that I feel that anyone on the fence should try.

A masterpiece, God of War continues the story of Kratos from the first trilogy (Not required to have played the first 3, but a quick read of the wikipedia for the story is helpful) while building on the characterization. Heavy, impactful combat is marred only by the slight repition of enemy and miniboss fights.

This is a once in a decade type game. God of war has always been a fast paced high energy button mashing arcade style action game. This changes to focus to the great storyline and narrative. Kratos is older and it’s interesting to see him as a father. Game of the year in my opinion!

I have always loved the God of War Series and didn't think they could out do themselves. "OH HOW I WAS WRONG". You HAVE to add this to your gamer collection! Words have not been created by man to explain the how Great this Masterpiece is. This was made to be played on the PS4 Pro.

I got this PS4 game for my PS5 and the graphics are amazing. The game directs you along the story path in a very limited manner but still has lots of hidden goodies for the avid player.

Gripping from the intro! Haven't played a God of war game since the original and this drew me in from the opening and couldnr stop playing till the end then kept playing! Amazing game. This is a must have for any Ps4 owner and if you're thinking of getting a Ps4 this game alone is worth the price of admission.

This game takes you in a whole new world, whole God's to explore. Whether your a fan of the series or this is your first game it's a must have. Only minor gripe is the camera is extremely close.

This game is on a whole new level that very few other games have managed to reach. The immersion experienced while traversing the Nordic kingdoms is incredible. This game must be experienced by all, not just gamers. I only wish there were more enemy types a la Dark Souls. Still, this is a very special game.

I have to say “God Of War” never disappoints. As a fan of Norse Mythology, this game is absolutely amazing. The relationship between Kratos and his son Atreus is heartfelt. With outstanding graphics, gameplay, and a brilliant storyline “God Of War” is the game of the year. Kratos is my spirit animal at the gym.

This game is incredible. It retains much of the typical God of War intensity, while dialing back on the needless, over-the-top gore. There's a compelling story in this GoW, as well as a vibrant, interesting world full of secrets and puzzles. A beautiful, enthralling action game you won't want to miss out on!

These kinds of games are not released everyday. What God Of War understands is that great gameplay and amazing graphics are equally important. This game is beautiful while also feeling great to sink an axe into monsters every single time. The voice acting is great and I feel pretty engaged in it's world.

best god of war yet. fantastic story and combat. no loot and progression though. nearly as good as witcher 3 in some ways, but not quite a complete package. best game of 2018 still
