    I haven't experienced such a fine game ever since the witcher 3. So many interesting thongs to do in the game even after the main quests are over. I loved Kratos character development it was a beautiful story. Totally worth the money and worth buying a ps5 for!

    Tudo o que a santa mônica toca vira uma obra de arte, que obra prima de jogo. História e jogabilidade perfeita, é o tipo de jogo que te deixa horas e mais horas na frente da tv e você nem percebe o tempo passar porque o jogo não fica chato nunca

    A great sequel to a great 2018 game. All fans are required to pass. After 10 hours of play, my GOTY 2022 contender is on the same shelf as Elden Ring.

    La verdad el juego me enamoro tanto grafica como artisticamente, la paleta de colores es fantastica. He jugado la version con parche y 0 bugs o fallos y tambien recomiendo jugar en modo rendimiento ya que es un lock perfecto.

    I already loved the last God of War from 2018. The characters, the world and the overall detail of the nordic mythology made it a masterpiece.

    Only Santa Monica coulde have done a perfect saga with only two games instead of a trilogy.
    Ragnarok close with perfection the norse saga and the whole evolution of Kratos and Atreus as characters.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ragnarok was a game i expected a lot from, and it matched, if not exceeded, all my expectations. Enemy variety is insane,bosses are AMAZING. The story and writing overall is impeccable.
    Gameplay is flawless aswell, and the difficulty on hard modes is well done. I was worried about roaming Midgard once again, only to found myself in there a few times only. The side quests are HUGE and EPIC, they feel like they are the main one. Me that was worried about a « GOW 1.5 » i did not felt this way at ALL.

    And please, do not listen to all the Elden Rings stans (insane game) and xbots review bombing. This game is a MUST-PLAY, and my 2022 GOTY imo.

    Thank you Santa Monica Studios.    … Expand

    Sencillamente increíble visualmente. Jugabilidad sublime, y con el control DualSense la magia se siente y también se escucha con los Pulse3D.

    Serio candidato a juego del año.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. God of War Ragnarok a masterpiece of a game. I am huge nerd when it comes to Norse mythology, so playing a game that explores that type of world is always a blast for me. Even the God of War 2018 was a masterpiece.

    But now to actual storyline, gameplay and graphics of the game.
    Storyline: I like the duo of Kratos and Atreus in the game, father and son, surviving Ragnarok. The action, the adventures and the drama, all fits well in the adventures of Kratos and Atreus. And now that you can play Atreus as well, gives the player a whole new perspective of the game.

    Gameplay: The game mechanics is still the same as the previous game with a slightly different styles now that you are playing Atreus. But if the gameplay worked well in the last game because why change it in the newer game.

    Graphics: The graphics, on the Playstation 5, absolutely a 10/ 10, however God of War always had great graphics. No surprise there.

    in conclusion, the game was done well with a beautiful ending to a great story. I did feel that the God of War, Tyr, was a bit anti-climactic in my honest opinion, but doesn't really ruin the overall story. A great game to buy.    … Expand

    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.
