It’s 2022, but are we playing a game from 2018? Incorrect. We are testing the PC version of God of War from Sony Santa Monica and let you know if it’s worth buying.
Join hosts Marcus Stewart and Alex Stadnik as they take you on a first-hour tour of Kratos and Atreus’ adventure. One of the significant additions to this version of the game is the enhanced visual fidelity. God of War can hit 4K visuals, but PC players will be able to use the unlocked frame rates to experience the smoothest way to play one of the best games of the past few years. PC fans will also be delighted to hear that God of War features support for ultra-wide screens.
Another key difference in this version of God of War is the freedom to choose your controller. Both DualSense and DualShock are here, of course, but as our game shows off, Microsoft fans can also enjoy their fun and plug in an Xbox Series X/S controller (it has to be tested). science, okay?).
If this is your first time entering the world of Kratos, Atreus and the rest of the gods, be sure to watch review of one of the best games of 2018 where we say:
Kratos’ reconstruction serves as a narrative, but it also parallels the development of the series; where God of War used to rely on bombs and bloodlust, now it leaves space for strategy and nuance. It still has great action and lots of incredible moments, but it supports them with a new level of depth and maturity. God of War learns from its past while opening an exciting avenue for the future and emerges as one of the best games of this generation.
