It’s rare to see a sequel nail it this hard, but God of War: Ragnarök has once again raised the bar for every action adventure title. It’s the best game I’ve played in a very, very long time, and is, in a word, perfect.
In "God of War Ragnarök," Kratos and Atreus face their destiny amid the looming threat of Ragnarök. They journey through the Nine Realms, battling Norse gods and monsters, while dealing with the complexities of their relationship. As Fimbulwinter descends, they must decide between personal safety and the fate of the realms.

100%God of War Ragnarok Review – Divine Intervention
God of War Ragnarok is the epitome of cinematic gaming experiences. It's an unforgettable, magical adventure teeming with treasures to find, legendary opponents to slay and relationships to forge along the way, all built upon a near-perfect core gameplay loop that sinks its Chaos Blades into you and refuses to let go. The latest step in Kratos and Atreus' father-son dynamic is just as touching as the one before it was in its predecessor, and the slight amendments to the gameplay make this the sequel the 2018 reboot of the series deserved. Ragnarok is both the PS4's final swansong, and the best of what the PS5 has to offer, and right now, one of, if not the best cinematic gaming experience you can buy.
100%God of War Ragnarök Review – A giant, heartfelt blockbuster
God of War Ragnarök is more of the epic God of War that we loved in 2018, but it builds on those foundations in every single way to create a compelling and addicting adventure in its own right that improves across the board. Combat is furious and intense, exploring every nook and cranny of each Norse realm is captivating, and clever puzzles are seamlessly intertwined with abilities that change, evolve, and make you feel like a master of all crafts. Narratively, the heartfelt and fascinating story is supported by incredible writing that makes its whole cast of characters shine, and the production values are through the roof, with a gorgeous soundtrack and visuals that push the limits and stun at every turn. Santa Monica Studio have again managed to create something truly memorable and entirely special.
