Combat generally focuses on using the square and triangle buttons to perform blade attacks and circle to perform punches, generally mashing the buttons makes Kratos perform some brilliant moves. The gameplay in the God of War series should be well known if you have played any other entries by now. I don’t want to spoil the story for players, though there are some amazing moments and bosses in game which will show off the true beauty of the God of War series. The pacing felt a bit slow for the first hour of the game but as the story picked up it felt like it kept to a decent pace which will keep players engaged within the game. As mentioned earlier we see a calmer side to Kratos in this game which is a nice change, though this did take a while for me to get used to. The story is nothing short of brilliant and ties nicely into the rest of the God of War games. ![]() Kratos is tested as he seeks his freedom and redemption for his sins. For breaking his oath he was sentenced to a lifetime chained in a prison for the living damned, driven to insanity by the Furies. After vowing to avenge them Kratos broke the blood oath with Ares. Six long months have passed since Kratos stood with the bodies of his wife and child – stained with their blood after being deceived by Ares into killing those he loved. God of War: Ascension is set ten years before the original God of War and tells the story of Kratos in search for the truth, showing the characters calmer side. Thoughts crossed my mind that after three brilliant games the series would be dragged on to make a little cash, though thankfully that was not the case! Ascension is a welcome addition to the series and explores another side to Kratos. ![]() The announcement of God of War: Ascension was both a glorious moment and a moment of dread.
