God of War Ragnarok reviews roundup

As PlayStation LifeStyle’s Mack noted in his review, God of War Ragnarok is almost perfectly executed, with satisfying combat, incredible graphics, and excellent characters. Our sister site GameRevolution expressed similar sentiments, praising the game’s world and side content.

Unlike the 2018 entry, which was helmed by Cory Barlog, God of War Ragnarok was led by Eric Williams. Fans initially expressed concerns about the change but we can all rest assured now that we’re in for a treat next week on Wednesday, November 9th.

Prior to God of War Ragnarok, the highest-rated first-party PS5 was 2020’s Demon’s Souls remake (92/100), followed by Final Fantasy XIV Endwalker and Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade. Which PS5 game do you think will break God of War Ragnarok’s record?
