    The story of God of War III Remastered is praised for providing a powerful conclusion to Kratos' tumultuous journey, though it remains largely unchanged from the original release. While the enhancements in graphics and performance are appreciated, some reviewers feel that the narrative lacks depth and does not warrant a second purchase. Overall, the story retains its intensity but offers no new content or developments.

    • “God of War running at 1080p/60fps looks nice; the story, gameplay, and progression system are still top-notch.”
    • “Enhancements are nice but don't make the game worth buying again; the story and characterization are one-note.”
    • “Does Kratos' rage-filled story deserve another go, or is this one remaster you should consider skipping?”
    • “There is absolutely nothing added to the story or content of God of War III.”
