God of War: Ragnarok
God of War: Ragnarok is one of the biggest and most expensive games of the year, filled with bombastic action and epic fights between literal gods and monsters. And most of it feels great and plays wonderfully, even on the aging PS4. But what really makes Kratos and Atreus’ latest journey worth playing is the focus on the characters and their relationships. Ragnarök spends a lot of time—both outside of and during gameplay—with its cast of characters, giving them all moments to shine in this massive adventure. So yeah, you may come for the awesome axe and cool boss fights, but you’ll likely stay with Ragnarök because of its writing and characters.
Playable On: PS5, PS4
Rough Average Playtime: 20-35 hours
