God of War: Ragnarök is an unforgettable journey filled with epic and intimate moments that can range from slaying one of Asgard's gods, to how deep and complex the relationship between father and son is.

The closure of this new saga of Kratos is one that has achieved and far exceeded our expectations and that, of course, makes it a jewel of what Sony has achieved in recent years with its first party developments.

If you're a fan of the Dragon Ball franchise, it's obvious that you'll be interested in trying it, but as a game, I would frankly recommend trying something else within the same genre.

This content alone is worth the $20 price of admission.

As a final word, even as a new person to the franchise, I have to say that Return To Monkey Island would be an experience that fans of the franchise are going to totally enjoy.
