The God of War PC unlock time isn’t far away at all now, so if you remember the pain of missing out on Kratos' beard when he returned to PlayStation in 2018, your patience will soon be rewarded. Yes,God of War on PCis finally a thing.
Even though few of us PC players believed that Sony’s exclusives would ever see the light of day on our monitors, some of the PlayStation’s best games have made the multi-platform leap in recent months, like God of War andHorizon: Zero Dawn. And the not-so-good ones—sorry,Days Gone.
So you can’t win ‘em all, but Sony Santa Monica’s God of War reboot is certainly the entry I’d choose to get the port treatment first.

He’s part of a story that’s plenty more than just killing increasingly powerful deities and having increasingly adolescent strops.
