Customer Ratings & Reviews

Another fantastic PS4 exclusive, this game truly is a site to behold. It's single camera take is a true innovation for storytelling in games and really helps immerse you the story. There is a very heartfelt story to be had here, and it's wrapped in a richly realized world that brings the mythical beings of Norse mythology to life. On top of all that the game is absolutely stunning to look at and really shines on the PS4 Pro. The combat can be quite challenging at times and is not for the feint of heart. Definitely worth checking out if your looking for a great story or a challenging action game.

Great adventurous game would recommend it to everyone...

This final game in the God of War series adds a lot to the formula, that may throw off veterans, but is still great. Visually the game has never been better and has a lot of great cut scenes. The story is also really good and has Cratos leading his son through this mythology filled world. While you don't have to play any of the prior games to have fun with this game, they are well worth dusting off a PS2 or PS3 to play. Hopefully one day we get remasters of those games on either PS4 or PS5, but that could just be wishful thinking on my part.

This is a must have game for any and all PS4 owners. The gameplay, graphics,story and controls are just amazing .. stop reading this review and add it to your cart right now.....

This game is as close you get to oscar winning movie. Excellent gameplay and combat. Intriguing story. And action from start to finish. Ita an instant classic and worth the buy

The original God of War on the PS2 was great, and each installment has added it’s own touch to the series. This game revamped the gameplay and started an all new stroy with new mechanics and characters. The open world like concept, the ability to control the camera angle, and the costumizable options in this game have helped to bring new life to this series. I recomend it to any God of War fan or anyone new to the series. No prior knowledge of the series is required, although it does give you more of a background into Kratos if you have played past games, this game will bring you up to speed if you are new to God of War.

I preordered my copy on 4/17 and received it through UPS on the 20th. I have played the previous installments in the series which could be considered nearly generic hack and slash titles. This sequel does something the previous titles hadn't, it makes you care about the story and the characters far more than before. It's a journey of character/world development and shows how the main character has tried to change over the course of time from the previous title. It's always a great thing when the game is enjoyable when going for 100% completion. God of War will easily be competing for my personal game of the year spot.

Get ready for one of the best gaming experiences of 2018 by far. This game has it all - story, action, visuals, compelling characters, etc. cant recommend it enough.

"God of War" has it all. Great story, beautiful graphics, outstanding action and gameplay, puzzles, collectables...it's Game of the Year for a reason. Just play it.

I hadn't played the previous God of War games, but it's easy to see why they were so popular in the past. Crisp combat, great visuals, engaging battles. The difficulty, when ratcheted up, will definitely test your mettle. If you want a hack-and-slash type RPG with a little bit more depth to it, take a look at this game while it's on sale. It'll be well worth the price of admission.

God of War PS4 is a fresh new start for the series. Now taking place in Norse mythology, Kratos now lives in the Norse lands with his son Atreus. His wife has passed and her dying wish is to scatter her ashes at the highest peak. Now Kratos embarks on a journey while training his son to become a warrior while controlling his rage. It has a revamped battle system that is more like Dark Souls and less like a hack and slash. It makes for a more challenging game. The graphics are some of the best in gaming right now and the story is absolutely fantastic from start to finish. I highly recommend you pick up this winner.

This game is awesome. Graphics are unbelievable you will look around just to take in the surroundings. Great action and a believable story that will keep you coming back

OMG! This is it. This is the masterpiece that I have been waiting for. A truly stunning perfect game. Beautiful, great control, great story, great graphics. Buy this now!

This is not like any of the previous titles in this series. Instead of a wide view of the terrain the camera is always over Kratos' shoulder. Combat is done with an Axe that reminds me of Thor's hammer instead of the Blades of Chaos. The game really shines in its story. It is about Kratos and his son as they ascend the tallest peak in Midgar (this game uses Norse mythology instead of Greek since all of those Gods are dead now) and spread his wife's ashes as per her request. I have not completed the game yet but it is very compelling with top notch voice acting and insane graphics. Highly recommended to anybody.

I am pleasantly surprised at how engaged I am in the story of this game. The gameplay is fun, the interaction between the characters is fun, the pace of the game is great. I'm just suffering from lack of sleep now as a result. I really like the shift to the Norse mythology, and the fact that the nudity and sex aren't in the game makes it a better fit for my life and who can/shouldn't be in the room when I play. That said, there is a lot of over-the-top violence and animated gore, and there is profanity periodically during the character interaction, so be forewarned. Great work Sony.

This is like a combination of God of War and The Last of Us. This game did a lot of things right (story, world building, relationship between father and son, graphics, side quests, progression, and exploration). Nothing feels like a chore to me because I found enjoyment in exploration and finding rare treasure at the end of the endeavor. I didn’t think they could pull this game off because I really thought Kratos’s story should have ended after God of War 3. It could have been an ending. I’m glad I was wrong and these other 5 star reviews are not lying. This is genuinely an excellent game!

Amazing video game. I bought this game for my husband. He didn’t like it at first but after playing it for a while he loved it.

I have not played all the way through yet but 10 to 15 hours into it I can honestly say it's the best game I ever played and I play a lot of games. God of War is always been a favorite of mine but this new one takes the story of Kratos to another level fair warning this game is very addictive and you won't want to stop playing for a while. The only thing that could make this game better is the hope that we can get some single player DLC soon. If you don't have this game yet what are you waiting for drop what you're doing drive to Best Buy right now and buy it you won't be disappointed I promise

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

I never played any of the game in the God of War franchise so this was quite new for me. Santa Monica Studio is one the many game devs under Sony's umbrella. I never had any experience coming into my first attempt at God of War so it wasn't so enticing in the beginning. I wasn't too sure of how this would compare to the previous games since they never seemed appealing to me but after trying God of War 2018 I've gotta say it might be worth trying GoW 3 Remastered. Definitely worth GOTY 2018
