God of War Ragnarok is one of the greatest hack-and-slash games players can get their hands on. The 2018 reboot did a great job of modernizing Kratos' character and the title's gameplay, and fans were glad to see that Ragnarok felt like an extension of this winning formula instead of a reinvention. Players were familiar with the gameplay systems that made early-game combat easy to get into, while they also made it a point to understand the new additions Santa Monica Studios brought to the table that made combat more dynamic than ever.
