    God of War is a fantastic game with slick combat and an immersive story. Kratos, despite being a god, is surprisingly relatable as character, unlike the previous games. You can get creative with the combat as you level up and unlock more and better moves. The Leveling can feel a bit tacked on and sometimes doesn't feel like it changes anything, but it's minor and has a little affect on theGod of War is a fantastic game with slick combat and an immersive story.

This is easily one of, if not the best, ps4 exclusive, I can't wait to play it again on the ps5.… Expand

    I don't see enough people talking about how the game is played entirely with one camera and never cuts into a cinematic shot during the whole game. it's one of the best games I've played my entire life, the graphics are one of the best, the views are insane, the fights are really satisfying when you finally finish them some people say the fights are easy but I've never really noticed thatI don't see enough people talking about how the game is played entirely with one camera and never cuts into a cinematic shot during the whole game. it's one of the best games I've played my entire life, the graphics are one of the best, the views are insane, the fights are really satisfying when you finally finish them some people say the fights are easy but I've never really noticed that cus the story is really **** good, and even after you've finished the story there're side quests that don't feel pointless or boring or out of place. Overall easily one of the greatest games that have ever been created and I can't wait to play ragnarok next year 10/10… Expand

    I understand that this is not a GoW.
    It's a better game the whole series combined.
    Action, Story, gameplay, graphics.

    Everything is perfect.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. this game is my favorite game of all time. from the very start the combat is fun and diverse with heaps of option with different combos as you go throughout the game. imagine dark souls combat that is fast and fun and isnt clunky. as you get the blades of choas you unlock an entire new half of the combat system you didnt know existed. i sometimes go through the game again just to kill some enemies. i have seen some people complain about the trolls and the same kill finish animations but personally they are so good it doesnt get old.
    the story is complex and deep with a greater meaning behind it so it is always interesting. the ending is just incredible because you find out who atreus really is and the sequal potentiel is just amazing. going through a second time you start to find out all the little hints and knods to the big reveal at the end. this is the only single player game i have played where i got something new out of a second playthrough.
    the game looks amazing and the setting is perfect. however when you put a heap of different effects on enemies like fire and magic it becomes really crazy and messy with frame drops. the charcater models are some of the best i have ever seen up there with tlou. best acting in video gaes as well. the characters sound like real people and they dont sound like they are reading a script and instead feels like they actually mean what they say.
    you kill 3 gods magni modi and balder which are really good boss fights. the other bosses include the dragons, trolls and valkries all being really good fights.
    the valkries deserve their own paragraph. they are one of if not the hardest fights i have ever done. 2 and a half hours to kill sigrun (the final valkrie). they are all unique with their attacks and they arent damage sponges and you are constantly on the edge because they are about to kill you.
    the soundtrack is incredible. they fit the setting and are all really powerful. they are only used in times when it is right and i really like them even though they are in old norse.
    overall this game is an easy masterpeice. there arent any major issues and this game deserved goty. as soon as i completed the game i played it a second time. it is only 25 (AUD) and is a bargain for what it is. i promise you wont get bored and it is a mustbplay for not just ps4 owners but for all gamers.    … Expand

    It's Great, of course. But not comparable to the old Trilogy.
    I think it's not Brave enough, specially in Boss fights.

The characters all exhibit tremendous character growth throughout the game, and it is easily understandable and followable for anyone even if they’ve never played the game before. I had never played any god of war before this and still understood the story and the background of the character to an extent. The world building is phenomenal and it’s level is practically unseen in our modern world of bland and unoriginal games. It is the best single player game to experience of this decade, and there is no in game purchases, no dlc’s you get what you pay for and you’re not jerked around. Truly an inspiring game.… Expand

    The return of the furious Spartan warrior was made well. God of War is already a great contender for game of the year and you shouldn't miss it. [Issue#285]

    Cory Barlog and his team achieved what many thought impossible – despite having changed almost everything Santa Monica managed to preserve that elusive spark that makes God of War game feel like a God of War game. They created one of the defining titles of the current generation and a technical marvel whose stunning beauty in motion words cannot describe. And there’s one more thing. Barlog’s touching reaction to his masterpiece’s scores shows that even in the world of huge budgets, micropayments, loot boxes and sales forecasts there still is a place for artists who pour their hearts into their work. We need someone to remind us of that once in a while. [06/2018, p.38]

    Where most games excel in one single area, God of War manages to deliver on every front, providing players with one of the best experiences we’ve seen so far this generation.
