The new God Of War duology has my favourite snow in gaming. I can take or leave about 60% of everything else in them, but lawdy, that snow! In God Of War Ragnarok , the action kicks off a during the apocalyptic fimbulwinter, which is probably bad for some characters I don’t care about, but it is good for me personally, because there’s a lot of snow to play with. How much snow, you ask? 190 flippin’ gigs worth, apparently, according to Sony’s system requirements .
To be fair, this does include the roguelike Valhalla DLC, which comes as part of the package when Ragnarok releases on Steam and Epic on the 19th of September. Still, it’s a demanding beast. Happily, the rest of the requirements don’t look so taxing, at least not at the recommended level.
If you want a professional opinion, James’s take was as follows: “The CPU/GPU/RAM is all fairly typical of contemporary AAA stuff but holy shit that's a lot of storage space.” I concur. That’s a good 50GB on Baldur's Gate 3 , for example, or 40GB more than Horizon Forbidden West with all the extras.
If you’d care for more stupid maths, it’s also 13 copies of Sekiro , or 950 Mini Motorways es. I might try and wrangle a review of Ragnarok once it’s out, because I’ve got a lot to say about it. What I’ll say for now is that I fully support the trend of first party Sony games including some sort of additional challenge mode.
The Last Of Us Part 2 , Days Gone , and now Ragnarok all include an extra mode where.
