About

God of War Ragnarök (2022) is an action-adventure RPG that continues the Nordic saga of Kratos and his son Atreus as they navigate the Nine Realms during the events of Ragnarök. The game blends intense combat with exploration and puzzle-solving, maintaining the series' reputation for storytelling and cinematic presentation. With a 91/100 rating, it's widely regarded as one of the best action games available.

Running God of War Ragnarök requires a modest entry-level GPU with a benchmark score around 9072, paired with 8 GB of RAM and a CPU scoring approximately 5034. The game scales well across different hardware configurations, allowing players with mid-range GPUs to achieve solid 60 FPS at high settings, while more powerful cards can push performance further at max graphics settings. Whether you're benchmarking performance or chasing higher framerates, the game provides good optimization for PC gaming.

If you enjoy action-heavy adventures with strong narrative elements, God of War Ragnarök is absolutely worth playing. The combination of engaging combat, beautiful graphics, and compelling storytelling makes it a standout title that justifies its critical acclaim.

Performance profile

Released in November 2022, God of War Ragnarök targets RTX 20/30-series and RX 6000-era hardware. A current mid-range GPU (RTX 4060 Ti / RX 7700 XT) is the sweet spot for 1440p Ultra; 4K needs a high-end card.

RPGs like God of War Ragnarök stress VRAM during long sessions — texture streaming, mods and open-world traversal inflate memory use over time. 8 GB VRAM is a practical floor; 12 GB+ is worth the headroom at 1440p and above.

Mid-range territory. An RTX 3060 or RX 6700 XT delivers 60 FPS at 1080p High in God of War Ragnarök. For 1440p Ultra you'll want an RTX 4060 Ti / RX 7700 XT; 4K Ultra needs an RTX 4070 Ti or faster.

Storyline

The freezing winds of Fimbulwinter have come to Midgard, making survival for Kratos, Atreus, and Mimir in the Norse wilds even more challenging than before. While the last game built an enormous amount of trust and understanding between father and son, there is still a great deal of complexity in their interactions – especially after the revelation of Atreus’ Giant heritage and the hidden prophecy only Kratos saw. Atreus is desperately curious. Like most young people, he wants to understand who he is more than anything. In this case, he wants to understand who he could be. The mystery of Loki’s role in the upcoming conflict is something that Atreus cannot let go of. He wants to keep his family safe, but Atreus also doesn’t want to stand by and do nothing while conflict consumes the Nine Realms. Kratos, still bearing the knowledge of his past mistakes, wants to spare Atreus the bloody lessons he learned from his conflict with gods. He wants to keep his son safe, above all, and their confrontation with Baldur has vindicated the belief that only tragedy will come from further entanglements with the Aesir. Together, Kratos and Atreus will have to make a choice about which path they will take. Whatever they choose will define the fate of all those living in the Nine Realms as Ragnarök approaches.
