Buy God of War games for PS5

The God of War franchise blends high impact combat, puzzle solving and a human story about fate and family. It launched in 2005 and expanded with II 2007, Chains of Olympus 2008, III 2010, Ghost of Sparta 2010 and Ascension 2013. The 2018 reinvention adopted a continuous camera, the Leviathan Axe and deeper progression, with Ragnarök 2022 concluding the Norse arc.

• Best starting point on PS5: God of War 2018 for a self contained narrative, modern systems and clear onboarding for new players.
• Alternate suggestion: if you want the full chronology, play the 2005 original where available, then jump to 2018 and Ragnarök 2022.
