Story, gameplay mechanics, graphics. If you can appreciate these things then this game will blow you away. Spent 3 days binging and it was worth every minute, amazing sequel.

The continuation of the amazing saga of Kratos in the Norse lands with many new characters and locations that expands on what was already there.

Great game I love god of war great buy it’s great .

Great game. Really pops with color. Great controller

The game itself was perfectly fine. Thank god. But the box was basically smashed into little pieces. My fiancé likes to collect the cases as well. Luckily he had one that he could replace it with. I know it’s Christmas time and things are crazy, but the box was still smashed into little pieces. Other than that, great

This game is very enjoyable to play in the graphics are excellent

*********SPOILERS********** I played through every God of War since the first one on PS2. I was mesmerized by the story and the gameplay and giant boss sequences. 18 years (!!!!!) later, this game has reached the pinnacle of Kratos' story. If you've played even just 2018 God of War, nothing here will be unfamiliar in terms of gameplay. Its smooth, its powerful, its fun. If you're totally new.....well...I would recommend at least watching a playthrough of the first few games to get an understanding for the story, but this combat gameplay is some of the best ever and youre in for a treat. You also eventually get a new weapon later in the game. Graphics are fantastic. This is why you get a PS5. For scenes and visuals like the ones in this game. Runs smooth at 4k60 and if you have a high refresh OLED TV, even better. My biggest annoyance with the game itself are the sometimes pointless upgrades and some of the Atreus levels. When upgrading your character, either with armor, weapons, or skill moves, theres definitely plenty available for you. But often, some of the skill moves, while they might look cool, are so useless in actual combat that theres no one I know who would choose that skill move over any of the others. Similarly, youll never use some pieces of armor cuz they often are terrible in terms of your character build. "This armor piece adds +3 to defense!!!!...............and -17 from strength, -12 agility, -14 vitality." Just a little pointless sometimes. But youre not forced to use it so its not a big deal. The biggest issue I had with the game was actually the Atreus levels. He's not nearly as powerful as his literal God of a father, so his combat is a lot less satisfying. But also, the levels where you play Atreus go on for WAY too long with sometimes very little combat. So youre just trekking around the world while NPCs talk to you. The world is beautiful and everything remains fluid. But after fighting a big boss or 20 enemies at once with Kratos, to all of sudden walking around grassy rocks and picking fruit for 15 straight minutes without a single enemy is a little bit of a whiplash that made me wish I could fast forward to being Kratos again. The story itself was pretty awesome, if not slightly predictable. I saw the twist coming about 3/4s of the way, and I honestly feel like the whole story wouldve had more impact if Kratos HAD actually died. Nevertheless, the voice acting is superb, and I did enjoy the story and the characters. Theres rumors that there will be a spinoff Atreus-only game where he's older and stronger, and while I dont know if those are confirmed or not, I would be willing to play it, in hopes that they dont make the whole game as boring as his levels in this one lol. I dont expect that to happen but yeah. My hats off to Santa Monica Studio. Theyve outdone themselves with a masterpiece and I look forward to their next game, whatever it may be.

What an amazing game! The God of War games never disappoint. It’s amazing to see how much this series has evolved over the years. The first few games had a decent story but they were pretty short and you mainly were just hacking away at enemies. Now you have such an in-depth story and combat. This game was more like 30 hours and so many great moments in the story that brought tears to my eyes. A great story about not only saving the world but about relationships. It was great to finally see Kratos have some emotion and the relationship with Atreus get stronger all the way through. The graphics are the best I have ever seen. So many vibrant colors and beautiful scenery. A few twists and shockers in the story which I always enjoy. I have a faded memory of the previous god of war game but I think I can say this is my favorite one to date. A really fun game to play through and I really enjoyed the story. 9.4/10
