God of War is one of the best games ever made. That is why we were so excited when it was announced for PC in October 2021, along with a whole host of graphical and performance improvements. 'Boy' …did this game deliver with stunning visuals, excellent performance and free downloadable content to kit out Kratos and Atreus.

Playing through the impactful, incredible story again on PC is a joy and Midgard looks and feels better than ever. The game has a Steam rating of overwhelmingly positive and has gone on to sell at least 1 million copies on the platform. Sony has been reluctant in bringing their exclusive titles to PC in the past but with highly successful ports of Horizon Zero Dawn and God of War, they may now be reconsidering their release strategy.

The best rated game of January 2022 by quite a margin, God of War has received an excellent rating of 93 on Metacritic, putting it on par with the original PlayStation 4 release. God of War Ragnarok is supposedly releasing this year too so it could end up being quite the year for GoW fans and Sony Santa Monica.
