Enter the Norse realm
His vengeance against the Gods of Olympus years behind him, Kratos now lives as a man in the realm of Norse Gods and monsters. It is in this harsh, unforgiving world that he must fight to survive… and teach his son to do the same.
Grasp a second chance
Kratos is a father again. As mentor and protector to Atreus, a son determined to earn his respect, he is forced to deal with and control the rage that has long defined him while out in a very dangerous world with his son.
Journey to a dark, elemental world of fearsome creatures
From the marble and columns of ornate Olympus to the gritty forests, mountains and caves of pre-Viking Norse lore, this is a distinctly new realm with its own pantheon of creatures, monsters and gods.
Engage in visceral, physical combat
With an over the shoulder camera that brings the player closer to the action than ever before, fights in God of War™ mirror the pantheon of Norse creatures Kratos will face: grand, gritty and grueling. A new main weapon and new abilities retain the defining spirit of the God of War series while presenting a vision of conflict that forges new ground in the genre.

Pretty awesome that Sony is embracing DRM-free. Now if only they would port Demon’s Souls and God of War Ragnarok…
Sales of God of War on GOG might influence Ragnarok to come. It’d be great if Ragnarok gets ported to both Steam and GOG on release. I think Sony is very supportive, as I vaguely recall their only IP that didn’t do so well on PC was Sackboy, and it was because it didn’t hit their expected targets.
I’ll be very shocked if Ragnarok doesnt come to PC eventually
Bloodborne please!
That didn’t even get a PS4 Pro patch.
I don’t think any game has been as well received and simultaneously neglected as Bloodborne.
This. Is. HUGE.
Huge props to GOG for securing these titles!
I’m OOTL, why is GOG such a big deal? Isn’t it just another storefront like steam?
It is, but most of their library is DRM free, so once you download it, those files are yours. Steam won’t let you launch a game without logging into your account, gog doesn’t even check.
Is this for real? I’m able to go to the folder on my hard drive and launch steam games without opening steam.
Steam has a drm system, not everything uses it though
not all games on steam use the DRM
Are you able to launch all your Steam games without Steam?
It’s almost certainly still going through steam. Steam has a .dll in all your game folders and it interacts with Steam. You don’t have to launch it through the launcher for it to use Steam. If you ever pirate a game and look at the crack files, there will often be that same name .dll in it. This is to bypass that Steam interface. If the game came from GoG it won’t even have a crack. It just works.
Huhh. Very unusual. You don’t already have steam open?
Nope.
As opposed to Steam, GOG will let you create backups of your games that will survive GOG itself. GOG provides offline backup installers that don’t need a launcher, internet or anything.
I always tell everyone to at least get a fully DRM-free copy of their favorite childhood gaming memory.
Meanwhile, patient gamers waiting for Sony’s next GOG port:
Looks like Uncharted is also coming, too. https://www.gog.com/en/game/uncharted_legacy_of_thieves_collection I played the Tomb Raider reboots and loved them, so perhaps I’ll like Uncharted, too.
Uncharted 4 is so much better than the TR reboot trilogy that it’s not even funny. That last one was especially bad.
This is great! GOG and itch.io are the only ethical game marketplaces that are left.
Amazing news. Days Gone has been really fun, glad I can remain steam free
Fuck yeah! I love for gog releases these days!
At last! Been waiting for this to come to GOG before buying this.
