God of War is the best modern port: 98% positive reviews on Steam, over 65 thousand online

On January 14, the PlayStation exclusive, God of War 2018, was released on Steam and the Epic Games Store, which became a kind of reboot of the series. And if you look at the Steam statistics, it becomes obvious: the game is in great demand, it is praised not only by critics, but also by users. At the same time, the maximum online peak exceeded 65 thousand people. Epic Games Store has not yet shared data.

This is one of the best launches of Sony games on PC at the moment. For comparison, the maximum online peak in Horizon Zero Dawn was 56 thousand, and in Days Gone - 27 thousand players.

At launch, the game received 98% positive reviews. Users highlight the story, gameplay, and optimization. RTX 2060 graphics card owners can use DLSS in performance mode at 4K resolution at 60 FPS. A GTX 1060 6 GB is enough to play at 1080p and still get 50-60 FPS. The action also supports AMD's FSR technology.

As a reminder, God of War: Ragnarok is coming to PS4 and PS5 later this year.
