Description
Enter the Norse realm
His vengeance against the Gods of Olympus years behind him, Kratos now lives as a man in the realm of Norse Gods and monsters. It is in this harsh, unforgiving world that he must fight to survive… and teach his son to do the same.

Grasp a second chance
Kratos is a father again. As mentor and protector to Atreus, a son determined to earn his respect, he is forced to deal with and control the rage that has long defined him while out in a very dangerous world with his son.

Journey to a dark, elemental world of fearsome creatures
From the marble and columns of ornate Olympus to the gritty forests, mountains and caves of pre-Viking Norse lore, this is a distinctly new realm with its own pantheon of creatures, monsters and gods.

Engage in visceral, physical combat
With an over the shoulder camera that brings the player closer to the action than ever before, fights in God of War™ mirror the pantheon of Norse creatures Kratos will face: grand, gritty and grueling. A new main weapon and new abilities retain the defining spirit of the God of War series while presenting a vision of conflict that forges new ground in the genre.

GOG of War

Been waiting for this title to come here since 2018. It has been worth the wait. AAA title, excellent graphics, excellent sound and voice acting, excellent gameplay, and last but not least excellent performance on PC including FSR and DLSS. I truly believed it wouldn't be released here with what seemed to be ominous hiccups. However, here it is DRM-free and at half price. Get it while the getting is good and the price is right.

Amazing Port of an Amazing Game

The PC Port of God of War is amazing It performs excellent on my computer, averaging about 100FPS Original Settings at 1080p without any upscaling I haven’t encountered a single crash or bug during gameplay, even after 7 hours in a single session God of War itself is amazing, It won Game of the Year on the Year of its release It was a joy to play beginning to end. The combat felt so fun and never repetitive, Story is very engaging. and there is still so much more to it after finishing the main story. And now, GOG is the best place to get this game, Especially because its DRM-Free I recommend disabling FSR and Film Grain to get the cleanest picture. Accessibility options are available as well

drm free gow, yes please

I platinumed this game on PlayStation & Steam. And now I will on GOG lol. This is easily one of my all time favourites. Solid game. Excellent PC port with some missing features such as exclusive fullscreen. Devs said that it is a relic of old Windows but that doesn't change the fact I cannot selet specific resolution/refresh rates in game. Which is BULLSHIT. But that's the only complaint I have. Give it a try I say.

Tedious

My main complaint is the RPG attribute system which completely ruins combat in this game. Each combat segment features a significant number of enemies. The only viable strategy is to dispose of them as quickly as possible. To achieve that, it’s absolutely obligatory to collect various stuff around the world, do side-quests and create upgrades to “outstat” the enemies, or you won’t be able to defeat them. At first you’re restricted to the axe. It’s a terrible weapon, because you can hardly engage more than one opponent at the same time. Given how many of them appear, and how spammy some of their attacks can be, you’re forced to constantly dodge and evade until you acquire useful abilities, which is frustrating. Skill progression is slow in the first half of the game which just exacerbates this issue. Enemy variety is poor, as most of them are humanoids with different textures. A few bosses are repeated several times throughout the game. The game is littered with chests. You need to use them to upgrade your health and rage meters. Some can only be opened by solving a puzzle, which are largely trivial and only become a nuisance the further into the game. Lots of people praise the game for lack of loading screens, but that came at a cost. You’ll often have to use elevators, climb obstacles or walk through gaps to give the engine breathing room to load assets. This means that you’ll be waiting anyway so I don’t see any breakthrough here. Moreover, in the open world section, the CPU seems to be constantly busy which in my case resulted in poor performance. The interface is ugly. The map looks fancy, but you can hardly retrieve any meaningful information from it. E.g. the layout of the interior location you’re in is not show at all, just the general area which is useless. The story is clichéd. Any time you are about to reach your goal, some obstacle appears and you need to overcome it, having to run to and fro.
