God of War 3 Remastered's update is mostly visual, but the action reminds us why we love this bloody series.
Read full review ↗God of War III on the PS4 is the same exciting game that it always was--just a little prettier.
Read full review ↗That parade of cathartic moments still makes God of War 3 worth playing, especially given the vividness and eye-popping destruction woven into every major battle. It peaks and drags and peaks and drags, sure, but God of War at its high point was never going to be sustainable.

Read full review ↗God of War III has aged surprisingly gracefully. Although it's over five years old, somebody inexperienced with the series could easily mistake Remastered for an original PS4 game.
Read full review ↗Stunning graphics, vivid presentation, gripping audio, and an aggressive price point make this remaster a worthy way to celebrate God of War's 10th anniversary.
