Sony Ranks God Of War As PlayStation’s Most Engaged Franchise

It is no question the influence that PlayStation’s God of War has. From our review for the latest game – God of War Ragnarok – we scored the title a 10/10. “Kratos and Atreus are the heart and steel that forge God of War Ragnarök into a flawless and fitting end to the Norse Saga.” It later went on to be one of the fastest-selling entries for the firm exceeding 5.1 million in its first week.

Additionally, the IP has branched to television as well. Most notably, God of War was featured in Amazon Prime Video’s Secret Level which coined an entire episode based on the PlayStation series. Kratos is to also star in his own TV adaptation at some point too. In fall 2024, it was revealed that production on the show was rebooted at Amazon.
