The much-awaited God of War PC version is releasing soon. Here is everything you need to know to enjoy this masterpiece.
The PC version of Sony’s blockbuster 2018 RPG game, God of War, will be released on Friday, bringing the game to PC gamers for the first time in over four years. God of War was a multi-year PlayStation exclusive that sold over 19.5 million copies, and PC gamers will soon be able to purchase the popular game on Steam and the Epic Games Store.
The PC version of God of War will support 4K at 60fps, just like the PlayStation 5 version. When the game launches later this week, PC gamers will be able to play the game directly on their machines rather than through PlayStation Now.
God of War
Years after battling the Gods of Olympus, Kratos and his son Atreus must now fight for survival in God of War. Instead of the bright, gorgeous Olympus of previous God of War games, players will be thrust into Norse woodlands, which will be home to monsters and creatures such as ogres, draugrs, revenants, reavers, and elves. The game also contains even more action thanks to an over-the-shoulder camera that never cuts away, giving God of War the feel of a single-shot film.
As the popular protagonists, Kratos and Atreus journey throughout the realms to spread his late wife’s ashes from the tallest mountains in all realms, including Midgard, where much of the game’s story takes place, the game’s famed Greek mythology is replaced by Norse mythology. With his bow and arrow, Atreus will supplement Kratos’ combat abilities, as well as the power to summon forest spirits. While playing the 2018 title, players might use runes to travel between realms (excluding Asgard, Svartalfheim, and Vanaheim).
God of War PC Release Date
The PC version of God of War will be released on January 14th. Both the Epic Games Store and Steam will have the game available.
