God of War Ragnarök Review

By Akhil Arora (Nov 3, 2022)

Good
Very cinematic
Writing, direction are solid
Character growth defined by your playstyle
Combat does more with less
Variety and diversity
Elemental effects look cool

Bad
Camera is too tight
Companions could have been more helpful
Too much old-school level design
Plays like a loot simulator in places

God of War Ragnarök — out November 9 on PS4 and PS5 — has a mighty task on its hands. How do you follow up a critically-acclaimed and universally-loved soft reboot that reinvigorated the franchise? With 2018's God of War, Santa Monica Studio not only transported its Greek demigod Kratos to Norse mythology, but reimagined some fundamental aspects of the series along the way. Its director Cory Barlog faced pushback from both Sony and within the team. But it delivered, in spades. That success means a lot is riding on Ragnarök, which has the additional task of wrapping up God of War's Nordic era. (That's appropriate. After all, Ragnarök leads to the end of days. Next time you see Kratos, he might pop up in Mayan or Egyptian mythology, as has previously been hinted.)
