God of War (PS4 – April 20)
We haven’t seen a God of War game since Ascension all the way back in 2013. A lot has changed in those five years. We, as players, have moved onto the PS4, and Kratos, as our grizzly protagonist, has put his gods of Olympus slaying behind him and moved into the lands of the Norse Gods. Can you guess what he’s going to do there?
If your answer was rek some Norse Gods and monsters, you’d be correct. However, there’s an additional crinkle in Kratos’ story in his PS4 adventure. This doesn’t seem to be the same permanently angry and bloodthirsty Kratos we once knew and… cautiously loved. He now has a son, and must teach him how to protect himself in this unforgiving land.
It’s certainly looking like a new and exciting direction for the series gameplay-wise, and thanks to the power of the PS4 and the added oomph of the Pro, the game looks stunning.
