    One of the best ps5 games of all time. Seriously might be the best game I’ve ever played. Arkham meets god of war meet devil may cry.

    This game is just pure perfection, some of the best Story telling, Writing, Characters, Graphics,Art and Spectacal with bosses I've seen in gaming! The gameplay is amazing and This game is a Polished Jewel! Far better then God Of War 4 2018 in every conceivable aspect and builds upon that game masterfully. This is a Clear cut 10/10 easy. Highly recommend as one of Sony's Best Exclusives

    Best game ever made. This game is by far better than GOW 2018, the story of GOW Ragnarok is probably the best ever made. GOTY without doubt

    Equals or exceeds 2018 in nearly every way. It is a terrific conclusion to the Norse saga. Kratos does it once again. Now just waiting for New Game+ so I can experience the game with the maxed out weapons. Thank you SSM for another emotional, powerful, worthwhile journey.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I am simply speechless what a banger of a game Santa Monica Studios has delivered. The story and the worlds are just breathtaking (except for Niflheim, where they could have done more). The characters are not steely heartless monsters, they are rather believable and realistically written. And the battle system is just perfect. If I could, I would give the game a 9.7, because there are some things that I don't find so well done or unnecessary. First of all, the final battle against Odin bothers me because it doesn't feel like the epic showdown the game deserves, and Freya's decision to first forgive Kratos and then Odin doesn't feel realistic. Furthermore, I find the timing at which you unlock Draupnir poorly chosen, I would have put him in either a little earlier or a little later. Also the fight against Heimdall, the actual reason for Draupnir, just feels incredibly random. Finally, I also have to criticize some RPG elements because some armor sets are just so strong that some bosses, even on the highest difficulty, just melt. But I think later patches will fix that. In conclusion, I can say that it's a great game and despite being a fan of the Soul games for years, it's my Game of the Year candidate. If you've read this review so far and strangely haven't played the game yet, here's a tip, it will improve your gaming experience noticeably if you play the game on one of the two higher difficulty levels, as it's just too easy on the medium one.

    Sem dúvidas um jogo que te deixa pensando no que jogar depois que termina. Pegaram God of War (2018) e melhoraram, com novas mecânicas, novos inimigos, novos aliados também e uma nova história de arrepiar até o seu último fio de cabelo. God of War Ragnarök é GOTY.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Es el mejor juego de God Of War, la trama que tiene, el desarrollo de sus personajes es brutal, tan solo ver como es que Sindri cambia tras la muerte de Brok es algo que te hace empatizar con el, el giro de la historia es simplemente sublimes la verdad es que no ves venir lo que ocurre, si bien todos queríamos una guerra pero lo que nos dan supera las expectativas que tenía sobre el gran final. Simplemente algo hermoso y asombroso. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Esta secuela es una experiencia increíble, superando incluso a su predecesor que ya estaba bastante bien, este juego mejora muchos aspectos del anterior, ya sea con la variedad de enemigos y bosses, como también el gameplay, tuve una gran sorpresa con la nueva arma agregada convirtiéndose en mi arma favorita de todo el juego, la historia que tiene es atrapante, viendo como la relación padre e hijo se desarrolla a medida que va pasando pasando el tiempo, las peleas con bosses son bastante dinámicas, la banda sonora tambien a mejorado siendo que parecia imposible y ni hablar de las secundarias que incluso varias de ellas tienen cinematicas y son bastante entretenidas a comparación de las secundarias del juego pasado que eran más recados que otra cosa y por último el final del juego es bastante emotivo, mostrando como a crecido atreus durante su viaje y como su padre afronta eso, sin duda uno de los mejores juegos de la saga sino el mejor.

    GOW Ragnarök es una hermosa obra de arte, con un final que me hizo llorar y muy emotiva la historia. Un desarrollo de KRATOS demostrando sus sentimientos y dejando un lado su frialdad a lo largo de los juegos es un claro ejemplo de madurez y desarrollo que kratos ha obtenido

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. from my point of view practically perfect game, remodeled gameplay that corrects old shortcomings well, adds gameplay correctly even with atreus and does not get bored above all, always pushes you to go further, very well built characters, continuous story with choices NATURAL that does not make you doubt a wrong choice as it would have gone, but makes you feel like you find it right that it went this way and not just for the happy parts of the game, it moves away from the old game but at the same time no, the game pushes you to go further and further and the side missions work the same way, this is all a sequel should have, then needless to say beautiful art and audio sector that hardly a person would not appreciate, this game is all that that a sequel should be and have, difficult to maintain such a pace in every moment of the game. For me subjectively it is a perfect game and I believe that even today ectively everyone likes it more or less, moreover it is a very accessible game to a good part of people, highly recommended 10/10.

    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.
