Customer Ratings & Reviews

For anyone who loves the original GOW series, and for new fans, this game is amazing. The story, gameplay, and visuals are stunning. The amount of detail the GOW team has placed into this game consistently surprises me. I would highly encourage anyone who loves story-based games of any skill level to play this game.

Long time fan of the franchise and the newest installment in the GoW series does not disappoint! Amazing graphics and in depth story line and character development combine with fantastic game play to give us arguably the best game in the franchise. If you have a 4K TV and a Playstation pro, this game is a must have!

This is my first entry to this series. I’m actually having a great time with the game. The graphics are stunning and the story is great too. I don’t play much games on my ps4 but this game surprised me because in battles you have to literally use all buttons if you want to Kroto’s to live. Newbie player recommended.

If you’ve ever played a previous God of War game, play this one. If you never have, now is the perfect time to start. The series first step into Norse Mythology is its best so far. Graphics are amazing, gameplay is satisfying, story is engaging... This is as close to Valhalla as you’ll get without dying.

I saw this game on-sale for $10. I am NOT a video game enthusiast. I thought this was a remake of the "original" God of War from a long time ago. This is a "reboot" for a new trilogy(?)....could be called God of War 4. I purchased this for PS5. Had never played previous God of War. Sort of a Mortal Kombat meets Open-World gaming. But, it is "linear" enough that I don't get lost. There also isn't so many extras that you can never "finish everything". My favorite part of the game was the Valkyries. Not to spoil anything, but there are optional "bosses" that you can go around and beat - either during the game or after you finish.

Combat, story, visuals, all make for the best game of the generation. This game will quickly hook you and keep you hooked all the way through the incredible story. There is also a ton of things to do off the main path that is worth getting into to upgrade Kratos and his son, Atreus.

I will keep it short and sweet. This is the epitome and and new ceiling of what action narritive video games can achive and be. Stellar presentation, outstanding narriation, and superb gameplay all topped off with jaw dropping graphics, makes this a must own killer app game for anyone who likes videogames.

I've have a few friends who refuse to play it because they do not enjoy hack and slashers which the prior installments are. This is not a hack and slasher. The combat is well thought out and a part of the game I enjoy immensely. The story is great and graphics really blow me away.

This game is awesome. The visuals are beautiful, excellent story and i really like the way the new view looks. Is it perfect? No it is not, but no game is. It is a must buy especially if you played the previous ones. Cant wait for what is next. A new bar has been set. Finally after 2 yrs my ps4 got some action.

If you enjoy a great story, a visual eye fest, and stellar game play all contained in a single player experience, then this is a MUST OWN title. If you hate games or think multiplayer is the only acceptable gaming experience, then you're both wrong and not the target audience. Seek your game in another castle.

First let me start in stating I only bought my PlayStation 4 for this game (the other don’t exclusives are just a bonus). This is the best way to follow up god of war 3! The story pulls you in to the point where you can’t put the controller down. I’d recommend this game to everyone that owns a PlayStation 4.

I love this game it take me back to my childhood. Will recommend this game .

Great adventurous game would recommend it to everyone...

I am pretty sure everyone knows this already but the game is gorgeous, the story is great and a good departure from the original games, while still tying it in a believable way. The gameplay to me is not game changing but it is satisfying enough that it does not become repetitive. 5/5

An amazing experience for newcomers to the series and veterans alike. Do yourself a favor and go in completely blind, the story is actually really well done. Combat can be deeper than it looks at first glace, with a fair amount of customization of your play style. Can't wait for an expansion or a sequel.

I have never played any of the previous installments and this game is awesome from the visuals to the gameplay to the story. There are obvious references to it's past but someone new will not be completely lost. Wish I had a 4k tv and ps4 pro, regardless on a standard ps4 and 1080 tv it looks spectacular.

I love single player games with a great story and amazing world. this game hits everything I like. combat is deep and very well done, story is amazing and graphics justify my 4K tv purchase. I love the new setting and new look of Kratos. buy this if you have a PS$ and if not buy a PS4 so you can buy it.

This game is many people’s number 1 PS game or close to it for a reason. Much better than the older Gods of War games. The story is good, gameplay is responsive and there’s a lot to do. I found the leveling system took a bit to get used to but it didn’t deter from the game experience.

I feel like I’ve only scratched the surface of this game and have already put in about 30 hours. It is so much fun and has a lot of depth in the combat but it’s easily accessible. The story is awesome and having your son tag along and help is a stroke of genius to add a layer to the combat and puzzles.

PROS: top notch graphics 10/10, very very interesting story 10/10, fun combat 9/10 CONS:lots of back tracking if you want to do side quests, which can get kind of annoying when you can't just fast travel (you can to a place near it, but then have to still walk for a while to get to certain places)
