God of War: What the Max Level Cap Is

What the Max Level Cap Is in God of War

Although God of War still has its roots in the hack-and-slash action that has defined the series since its inception, for its debut on PS4, it incorporates plenty of RPG mechanics, too. As a result, Kratos now has different armor sets, weapon upgrades, and abilities that can all be upgraded via experience points. And as you’d expect from an RPG, there’s also a level system that governs his overall stats. As such, you may be wondering what the max level cap in God of War is.

The way the system works in God of War is actually closer to something like Destiny than it is to a Souls game – from which its combat is clearly inspired. Instead of an ever-increasing level number, Kratos’ level is governed by the armor he wears, and that number will fluctuate depending on what you’ve equipped him with. Each piece of armor on his body has a different level, and the max level we’ve seen equipped in the game is level 9.

Kratos’ armor has a big impact on the amount of damage he’s able to sustain in combat, so be sure to keep upgrading it whenever possible.
