Customer Ratings & Reviews

I've been a fan of this series since the PS2 debut. Loved the new direction Corey Balrog has taken this series, from the wonderful art and graphics to the fluid controls and new gameplay mechanics not to mention the intense storyline with many teachable moments. I've already convinced 3 of my friends to pick it up too and they absolutely love it too.

AWESOME! Graphics and controls are excellent, and story is good.

The characters keep you engaged through their banter as you travel and the story keeps on evolving as the characters develop on their journey. The combat is simple but allows the player to make it their own through deciding equipment and abilities. The hype is real and if you have not already purchased it, their will be FREE DLC in the near future.

I've played and beaten every god of war game, it's one of my favorite franchises. After the conclusion of gow 3 I wasn't sure how they could continue the story. Kratos has new tricks and a sidekick along with a new weapon. The is game gorgeous and the gameplay is fantastic. I dare to say it's the best gow I ever played! This is absolutely a must buy!

This game plays nothing like the previous games especially with the one shot camera constantly over the shoulder. Graphics are amazing for 30FPS. The game plays like Tomb Raider in the linear but open world aspect and also has a story telling just as The Last Of Us with the struggle between adult and child. Would recommend this game to any GOW fans.

One of those games everyone needs to have in their collection. One of the best games in this generation of video games. Buy it, play it and love it. Story is amazing, game play is tough and the graphics are gorgeous. Not a short game and it's the best God Of War ever. I've played them all and beat them and this is my favorite of the entire series.

Great game ever and now playing God of war Ragnarok

For any fan of God of War and video games alike. The new entry in this classic series takes a huge detour with amazing story telling and visuals that are as good as any. Coming in at well over 35 hours God of War is an open world adventure that has tons to offer and will keep you coming back even if you were not a fan of the previous iterations.

Just a masterpiece of a game—the visuals, controls, and storytelling are all top-notch.

God of War is a different game than what you are used to seeing. Kratos carries an ax as his primary weapon, and he is now tearing up Norse mythology. He and his son, Atreus, are on a quest, and the fires of his former rage have died down a little. The game is one of the most visually stunning on the PS4, and the PS4 Pro's performance mode makes the game very smooth, even if you don't have a 4K TV. The combat is still smooth and ferocious with finely tuned mechanics, great death animations, and a wide range of creatures to attack. It also feels just a touch more strategic than past games. The world itself is huge with snow covered forests, a giant lake, and multiple areas to explore and many secrets to find. There is some backtracking, but a lot of it has been my choice. This is a PlayStation console exclusive. If I didn't have a PS4, I would buy it for this, and I expect it to be on many top game of the year lists. It's that good. Although it's different than past games, Kratos has grown up (or maybe just old), but he can still kill a god or two if necessary. If you loved God of War, this new one will give you more than enough in content, fun, and wow moments to justify your purchase.

Thanks to Santa Monica crew for making this legendary piece for Playstation. Can’t wait until the next one, I’m already hyped about it, even though God of War 4 just came out last year. More easy to be said the gameplay, story, graphics, and all the side stuff are amazing.Everything about this game is worth your time. 10/10

The game has great action, graphics and action but it's nothing like the original trilogy, oh and there no jump button or jump combos. First of all this is not a bad game story can be interesting at times then it drags and gets boring then it gets interesting again. The puzzles are kinda ok but some are doing to much. I hate that every game is trying to implement dark souls demon souls style combat, but it I dont like that every game is taking inspiration from the combat in those games. I feel like this gen graphics is holding it back from adding a jump button, something that needs to change as long with the dark souls demon souls inspired combat.

I have never played a god of war game before. But after reading all the rave reviews I regret not playing other games before it! The graphics are incredible as well as the gameplay which can be challenging while also mainting it’s fun! I really recommend this game to anyone who loves a good third person RPG with incredible graphics and story!

This game looks great, some of the best graphics on the PS4. Gameplay however is a bit slower than the older God of War games, less arcadey, so keep that in mind. This is not a mindless hack & slash. The story is also a bit more emotional due to the father/son dynamic but overall it’s still a great game to play thru.

So far I have really enjoyed this game. The mechanics are definitely different than the previous iterations of God of War but I actually love the changes. I have played for MANY hours so far and I still have a long way to go. There's a lot to explore and interesting backstories to learn about as you go. Looking forward to the rest.

God of War has always been my favorite action adventure video game franchises. I've played them all and loved every single one of them. The hack 'n slash combat was the most fun and satisfying gameplay ever. There were the coolest monsters based on Greek mythology and the story lines were always interesting. This new Good of War is a sort of reboot and this time Kratos' world is based on Norse mythology. The gameplay has been changed a bit but it's a total improvement. You can make improvements and upgrades to weapons and armor etc. The main weapon, Leviathan Axe, is similar to Thor's hammer. In this game Kratos and his son Atreus go on an adventure together and fight together. During combat you can command Atreus to shoot at enemies and it all works out very well. It gets so fun that it's a wonder this style has never been done before. Also, the camera is from one continuous shot with no cuts. No in game load screens. Never been done before. I've said enough. Oh, and the graphics. Absolutely gorgeous! And that's just on my regular PS4! This might be the best game I've ever played and I've been gaming since the early '80s! This game is an absolute must play if you own a PS4!!

This was my first time playing God of War and it was great! You don't need to play any of the previous games to understand the story of this one as they do a great way of making the plot easy for you to understand. The chemistry between the 2 main characters are very touching and there are many elements to this hack and slash game.

This is one of the best games of the year/generation for PS4. The story is great, the game play incredible, and the amount of detail/quality put into this game make it a top tier choice. A must buy for any PS4 owner's collection. If you like a good story, fun combat and game play, or mythology then you're sure to enjoy God of War.

Very fun game. You learn kratos on more of a personal level
