    I played 34 hours and went through all the story quests, and after that, I can say that I had a positive experience of the game as in the first part, in some moments even better. It will appeal to many but not all. PS: I hate hints in this game.

    An epic final to the North saga.
    like the previous game from 2018, it really drags you into this world with its beauty, characters and storyline.
    I enjoyed every moment, im very happy that the gow series is still doing so well after all these years.

    La jugabilidad es muy fluida y adictiva.
    La variedad de movimientos y combos son muy satisfactorios.
    La narrativa y personajes están bien desarrollados para el universo y contexto al que pertenecen.

    Excelente juego, una digna secuela del God of War 2018, mejorando jugabilidad, gráficos que resaltan en PS5 (si tienes un TV de alta gamma), y con una historia increíble.

    One of the best games in the past 10 years, everything is done perfectly from the combat mechanics to how the worlds look in the game, an emotional story and a good adventure even when you finish the game there is still a lot to see

    The best game I’ve ever played. Beautiful story, intense combat, it captures all factors of what a game can really do spectacularly. Game of the year without a doubt.

    I purchased Ragnorok right when it launched digitally, thinking, "I must own this digitally because it's a masterpiece," because that's what everyone was saying before the game actually released. Honestly, I should have waited.

    After completing the game in six hours, I was left to stare at the God of War square that’s on my PS5 dashboard. It’s true what everyone has been saying

    After completing the game in six hours, I was left to stare at the God of War square that’s on my PS5 dashboard.

    It’s true what everyone has been saying before the game was delayed and launched. This is more of a DLC to the previous game than a new stand-alone sequel. There’s absolutely nothing new about Ragnorok. It’s a continuation of the previous game and that’s pretty much it. Sure, you get a new story, but nothing that will make you go “AHA!” There’s no new game play mechanics that will make you lose your mind. Just more of the same as all Sony’s other first party games.

    Does it look pretty on the PS5? It definitely does, but it also looks pretty on the PS4. No different between the two versions. The two versions look identical. The so-called power of the PS5 was not utilized at all. Major ball drop by the devs. The haptic feature is pointless because it drains the battery.

    The story itself is entertaining until a certain point. It’s a rinse and repeat game.

    The moral of the story and lesson learned, wait for a sale for this type of game. The hefty $70 price is not worth it and you’ll get the very same content when it drops to $25 during the holidays. Now I’m stuck with the digital version. Get the game for $25 during the holidays, then use the $45 use saved and get your soul sucked out of you by an OF creator. That’s the best advise I can give anyone that’s on the fence.

    This is a game made by the few remaining people in the gaming industry that still care about video games. The story is good because it has drama and emotional moments with the characters. It’s funny without changing the overall narrative. Lots of strong, solemn moments with the characters. Combat is more flexible and allows for viable builds to be made. Graphics are visually stunning.This is a game made by the few remaining people in the gaming industry that still care about video games.

    To me, this is a very, very safe continuation of the story. The game did not live up to all my expectations, but I still enjoyed it.

    Finally a product of absolute quality. A game that leaves you speechless from the first minute to the last. It's true it can be considered a "more of the same" for some things but the game works and is artistically wonderful.

    A game for children, nothing new in it, the game is short, dull combat, stupid collection of chests, children's puzzles for fools, in general, it sucks and not a game, a pathetic parody of darksiders 2

    This game is getting review bombed on here, yet these are without reason and are completely baseless. This is better than I expected, I believed this game could never have beaten 2018, yet i was very much surprised. You will follow along the story thinking you know what will happen, yet you are usually wrong. They changed the Norse faith while still keeping it faithful.

    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.
