Sony Santa Monica has accomplished a considerable feat this past month.

God of War managed to sell just over three million units globally in the first three days of what was a highly anticipated launch. The father-son dynamic between Kratos and Atreus was something that we’ve never seen before from the action-heavy series and we didn’t quite know what to expect from the full game, but what we did get was a highly refined experience that emphasized the story instead of Kratos’ bloody vengeance throughout Olympus.
