    Would actually give this game an 8.5. GoW 2018 was better in my opinion, but I think that is mostly because it came first. I don't feel like Ragnarök really built enough on top of 2018 to stand out. Great game, excellent smooth combat. It is definitely a must play PS5 game.

    GOW Ragnarok maximizes and perfects everything that was already great about the prequel. Storytelling, artwork, dialogue, audio, game-play-mechanics and combat are crafted with so much love for the smallest detail, its simply astonishing.

    403 issues short version:
    Great graphic, neat story and good characters but combat with off-camera cheap shots often from projectiles in enemy swarms ruin the fun. Resurrection doesn't help either if you have no I-frames to adjust camera and die again immediately. Some puzzle triggers were to picky at times even if you have the right idea but it doesn't work due that. Menus are cluttered

    When i played God of War 4 (2018), being my first GOW i played, i was amazed, an exceptional game, almost a masterpiece, but then God of War Ragnarök released and showed how a sequel should be made.

    Now, without spoiling anyone, the Story is a complete 10/10, no doubt on that, as the GOW 4 was, this one reveal a whole new level on storytelling for me. Combat was a little bit better

    Now, without spoiling anyone, the Story is a complete 10/10, no doubt on that, as the GOW 4 was, this one reveal a whole new level on storytelling for me.

    Combat was a little bit better on this one compared to the last game, and to be honest i think it is not a mindblowing upgrade to the last GOW, it is just, better if you know what i mean. Sometimes there's fights when it does not feels it should be one, feels like that fight is there for filling more time into de game, and maybe that point it's just on me but i kinda felt it like that, for me combat is an straight 8/10.

    There is 2 characters that evolves and take part of the great God of War Ragnarök story, and they are Brok and Sindri, i can't explain without spoilers how this 2 characters are so important and made its way to the player's heart, truly a great character evolution between the last and previous game.

    For me the game lasted about 25 hours without the side missions, straight to the story, and its ok, i mean, 25 hours are fine, i struggle with time to play videogames and i feel the time was right.

    And the ending of this game is just glorious, i don't want to talk about it much but it is just incredible.

    God of War Ragnarök is truly a masterpiece, impressive how they manage to pull this off but Santa Monica Studio, you really made it, and i'm thankful for your work.

    Las actuaciones de voz y animación de los rostros son impecables, realmente transmiten cada sentimiento que ocurre en la historia, la cuál es conmovedora, intensa, con suspenso, sorpresas, epicidad y una conclusión trepidante y emotiva. Mundos espectaculares y sistema de combate buenísimo que en 2018 ya era revolucionario para un juego de God of War y ahora fue notablemente mejorado en Ragnarok.
    Lograr lo que ha logrado Santa Mónica en ambas entregas no es nada fácil, y me da la impresión que tristemente mucha gente no esta dimensionándolo. Esta saga es toda una aventura sin igual, una experiencia maravillosa, y sin lugar a dudas no es solo el mejor de este año, sino de los mejores juegos que he jugado en mi vida.

    God of War Ragnarök is a masterpiece, a worthy sequel to the 2018 game that improves on everything that made it great. The graphics are stunning, the gameplay is fluid and engaging, and the story is epic and emotional.

    The environments in God of War Ragnarök are incredibly detailed and realistic, from the lush forests of Alfheim to the snow-capped mountains of Jotunheim. The character models are also brought to life with stunning animation, and the facial expressions are particularly expressive.

    The gameplay in God of War Ragnarök is a refinement of the formula established in the 2018 game. The combat is more fluid and responsive, and the puzzles are more challenging. There are also new features, such as the ability to summon the Hugin and Munin ravens to scout ahead, which add to the gameplay variety.

    The story in God of War Ragnarök is epic and emotional. It builds on the events of the previous game and delivers a satisfying conclusion to Kratos and Atreus's journey. The characters are well-developed and relatable, and the voice acting is top-notch.

    Ragnarok gripped me from the first second to the last, providing a sensational conclusion to the series.

    With great enemy variety and super diverse combat options even from the start, it felt even more fun to hack n slash monsters than in the original God of War (2018).

    The great cast of characters was a lot more fleshed out, involving them in different parts of the story, usually as team ups with varied combinations. This ended up being a fantastic idea in order to give each of them a lot of time interacting with each other and expressing their feelings or telling their stories, also further developing different relationships.

    Atreus was more mature and had a lot more to say in this one, he was no longer either a docile punching bag or a bratty rebel, Kratos himself grew a lot as well.

    The set pieces were spectacular and I've also enjoyed the enemy design a lot more, especially in terms of the bigger opponents, it felt like I could interact with them consistently and they were a lot more visible and transparent with their attacks.

    The acting performances were also amazing, I could really feel the emotion coming out of them during dramatic moments as well as being charmed or otherwise amused at the more comical scenes.

    If I had any criticism it would be with the way some fights are designed... in the sense that sometimes there seems to be a philosophy of "throw as much stuff at Kratos as possible in order to increase difficulty", which, combined with the enemies being able to instantly jump backwards on the opposite end of the entire arena and multiple enemies surrounding you or throwing moving balls of fire at you, it turns into a fiesta where you have to track a million things at once with a relatively limiting camera.

    So this was like a final chance at the gow franchise for me. Lets go..

    Story- 8.5/10- So much wasted potential and bad pacing. However, it was so engaging and a refreshing way because, its the longest gow game ever and its RAGNAROK!!
    Kratos and Atreus already understand each other, however things still go wrong in their way and its the final arc of the father and son bonding and its just so emotinal and heart-warming to see ma old man smile....

This games visuals and graphics were beyond excellent. The developers were beyond Interstellar. Now to the Voice actors. The voice actors make the entire game for me. they have the most convincing voices in any game I've ever seen. They know how to act in the exact moment, went beyond my expectations. This guy also has its fair share of hardness, as it is a very well rounded combat game. The combat in this game is perfect. The boss fights are amazing, the mobs we fight are ranged from easy to insanely hard. With all types of weapons from ice swords to plasma beams to long greatswords. The mobs have everything you can think of. In conclusion this is one of the best games of all time. If you have played any of the batman installments you will FOR SURE love this game fully.

    With gorgeous visuals and well-thought-out level design, God of War Ragnarok’s magnificent tale has the potential to reach out to many people. It utilizes next-gen hardware to the maximum to create an experience that only a videogame can offer.

One of the best stories ever delivered in a game, executed perfectly with a wonderful cast, amazing soundtrack and top-tier animations and character design. Combat feels amazing even though it didn't evolve dramatically from the previous game, and the additions clicked perfectly for me.

    Bigger and Better!!! The first hour alone beats the climax of every game I have ever played. The characters are masterfully done with thor and odin making a hell of an impression when we first meet them. The combat feels fresh and new while still retaining the amazing feel of the previous game. Each realm is unique in colors, style, lore, monsters, themes, and puzzles.

The combat feels fresh and new while still retaining the amazing feel of the previous game. Each realm is unique in colors, style, lore, monsters, themes, and puzzles. The story is full of twists and turns that nobody will keep you hyped for what comes next. Unfortunately, the story is not up to the same quality as the one from 2018. This is not the Ragnarok story that was set up by 2018 and there are many people who have come to this conclusion. The new characters introduced in this game dont feel like they are from the same universe as the characters in 2018. Baldur, Modi, and Magni are all very serious and well written characters that don't feel nothing like thor, odin, or any of the Nasgard characters. It's the same feeling of going from The Incredible Hulk and the first Iron Man film to the Avengers. For this reason and many more inconsistencies in writting, the story is nowhere near as memorable or polished as GOW from 2018. Expand

    While the gameplay hasn't changed much compared to GoW 2018, the story has improved immensely. The characters have major development and we get to see brand new characters brought into the mix that all shine. There's much more to do in this game and the quality is higher than ever.

    O jogo se encerra de forma coerente e complementa a versão do GoW de 2018 com crescimento dos personagens, a sua narrativa é divida em duas visões no decorrer do desenvolvimento do jogo, isso nos dá, a sensação de mais aprofundamento nos personagens e nos seus objetivos.
    Infelizmente o game não está 100/100… tem alguns problemas técnicos e desbalanceamento nos inimigos fazendo levar mais

    Infelizmente o game não está 100/100… tem alguns problemas técnicos e desbalanceamento nos inimigos fazendo levar mais tempo do que deveria para eliminar eles... sem contar a impressão que fica que sabemos ao desviar dos atk deles, parece que eles têm um ímã que faz que ele nos siga e acerte o seu atk (complicado)
    O diretor responsável não teve uma objetividade em explorar a cultura nórdica e acrescentar deuses desse universo, ficou muito aquém, nos deixando com 3 deuses somente em supostas batalhas épicas, o Jogo é excelente, mas faltou algum brilho que teve no passado na sua primeira trilogia.

    I really like the game, almost everything in this game is well made, except the menu (weapon, shields, ect) in-game fellt kinda disorganized, and I wish that Insomniac Games had build the PS5 version ground up, but it's a ported PS4 version into PS5 version with visual enhancment.

    I love this game! It adds so much more to the story, and adds just enough to game play to make it not too much of a repeat of GOW 2018. The graphics, and moCAP is top notch, as well as the acting by oll of the old and new characters. This should have been game of the year IMO, but nonetheless it's my top game ive played in 2022!

I know we can all agree that this game is absolutely beautiful! Very vibrant and lush and a lot more open than 2018! Santa Monica really created a masterpiece! Expand

    I did see some of the more median and lower review scores and find it silly with some of the comments made. This game did not need to change the formula, several reviews saying it feels like dlc is just not a well thought out comment. They kept what worked and improved upon everything and overall it made the game an even more premium package. GOTY and a truly memorable experience. One of those games that you finish and feel like your life feels a little empty.

    I can't help but tip my hat to the entire Santa Monica team. The deeper you delve into the game, the more you'll be drawn into the stunning story of a father and son against the backdrop of perhaps history's most horrific war. Throw in some casually endearing humour, great and fluid gameplay, and wrap it all up with an amazing audiovisual experience. [Issue#323]

    Thanks to an amazing cast that’s doing an outstanding job, a compelling story told through the eyes of multiple characters, and top-notch combat, this epic and heartfelt journey strikes all the right chord. It’s impossible not to recommend God of War Ragnarok, but just in case you had any doubts, I strongly advise anyone mildly interested in gaming to play Santa Monica Studio’s latest masterpiece.

    It’s a satisfying conclusion to the modern God of War saga, but it’s hard to walk away and not feel like this could have been something greater.
