Side Quest, Episode 19: God of War PS4 Review (Patreon)

God of War PS4 Review -- CLS Side Quest

It’s been five years since the last God of War game launched, and much has changed since Kratos’ heyday. Thankfully, the minds at Sony Santa Monica surveyed the gaming landscape in order to modernize the series, went back to the drawing board with their protagonist to give him depth, and changed the setting and story around to make us more invested than ever. The result is a triumph, and one of PlayStation 4’s very best exclusives. (The copy of God of War that this review is based upon was provided to CLS by Sony, free of charge and before it was released in stores.)
