The masterful finale to Kratos' Greek saga. This game book-ends every aspect about the trilogy in peak form. The combat is more fluid than ever, with flashy animations and impactful blows that make combat a joy to play. Complementing this is the sheer scope of every boss fight in the game, and there's a lot of them. Acting as the final battle between the titans, gods and monsters of the Greek world, Kratos has a lot of people he needs to kill, and it has never been more fun. Every boss is a bombastic set-piece that serves as a swan-song for the epic scale of the Greek trilogy. Alongside the gameplay, the graphics are noticeably upgraded since the previous entries, and especially on PS5, this game looks really good. The story could not have been handled better, with Kratos' arc of vengeance being tied up nicely, whilst also introducing story elements that add nuance and help the story not feel so black-and-white. Throughout these games, we have been with Kratos every step of the way, through every battle and sorrow, and so by the trilogy's end, I was left feeling satisfied and eager for a new beginning...
