    Simply amazing.
    Santa Monica Studios are masters of their craft.
    I took my sweet time and boy oh boy... no words can describe such an experience.

    A true action adventure epic of high quality production value. Sony SM have really set the bar with this one

    Greatest Game of all time... Trolls taking precious time out of their day to give the game bad reviews will not change that

    Without a doubt, I did not think that this saga would surprise me again as it did in 2018, but how my mouth shut up! The truth is, it is a wonderful game that shines in its artistic section, soundtrack, immense history, It is undoubtedly a masterpiece that will close for a long time, Santa Monica has done it again.

    This game is amazing, it improved upon every single critic it had on its initial reboot of the installation and has amped up its strengths and improved upon its weaknesses, simply phenomenal

    Embora seja um jogo crossgen, e tenha sido desenvolvido de base para PlayStation 4, não deixa de ser incrivel o trabalho da Santa Monica, pois o jogo está tecnicamente suberbo na PlayStation 5, a correr perto dos 100 fps sem por em causa o compromisso gráfico dando uso ao upscale através de supersampling o jogo corre a 1440p praticamente a 4k, dando uso aa outras tecnicas como HFR e VRREmbora seja um jogo crossgen, e tenha sido desenvolvido de base para PlayStation 4, não deixa de ser incrivel o trabalho da Santa Monica, pois o jogo está tecnicamente suberbo na PlayStation 5, a correr perto dos 100 fps sem por em causa o compromisso gráfico dando uso ao upscale através de supersampling o jogo corre a 1440p praticamente a 4k, dando uso aa outras tecnicas como HFR e VRR esta muito fluído e suave graficamente, loadings muito bem camofulados, ho seja praticamente não damos por nenhum carregamento na PlayStation 5. O gameplay mantem a base do anaterior mas está mais polido, e algumas novidades nos acessórios de Kratos. A história esta bem desenvolvida. É uma completa satisfação desde as batalhas, as cenas cinematográficas tudo junto torna o jogo algo épico.… Expand

    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!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Absolutely incredible game! Everything they did well in 2018 plus more! They built off of that experience and made it even better for us, better enemy’s,better combat, better environments, better story, and better set pieces, I can def list a bunch more! 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

    Apesar do jogo ser uma refinação da primeira iteração e muita coisa se repetir. A história a imersão gráfica e sonora deixam o jogo mais uma vez épico.

    Definitivamente el GOTY, desde el principio hasta el final se siente como un juego nuevo, es una mezcla de todo tipo de juego pero bien cohesionado.

    WOOOWW. This story is just amazing. The combat is done even better. The characters are so well written. There is a lot of well written emotion and some truly heartfelt moments.

Even though they are are smaller improvements it overall makes a noticeable difference. Gorgeous graphics, great artstyle this game is a looker.

    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.    … Expand

    Minha franquia de jogos favorita, possivelmente uma das maiores de toda a indústria de games, o jogo é extremamente otimizado na antiga geração de consoles.

Depois de tantos jogos, a história ainda continua interessante, o único ponto negativo é que God of War elevou tanto o nível dos inimigos que todo final teria que ser épico, o que não acontece aqui, de um ponto de vista narrativo faz sentido, é uma puta evolução de personagens, só que para quem espera algo semelhante aos clássicos e até mesmo o de 2018 não é esse o caso. Mais no geral eu gostei, teve algumas mudanças e aprimoramentos em relação ao de 2018 que foram legais, muito provavelmente a gameplay dos próximos terão um punch maior tanto na história quanto na gameplay, o que infelizmente não deve chegar a antiga geração. Ansioso para a continuação ou um remake dos clássicos. Eu platinei o jogo.… 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.
