God of War Ragnarok is officially coming to PC on September 19, and if you’re looking to play the game on release day, this is the best deal available. God of War Ragnarok is down to $49.79 via Fanatical using code FANATICAL17. The trusted Steam code seller has slashed the price of the upcoming release, with over $10 off the list price of $59.99.
This is one of the best PC gaming deals right now, and well worth considering. God of War: Ragnarok continues the stories of Kratos and his now teenage son, Atreus. The sequel was praised as an enthralling spectacle on its release, earning a 10 in IGN’s review.
“Impeccable writing, pitch-perfect performances, knockout action – it’s a complete work of art from top to bottom. Reflecting its core themes, it’s everything a sequel should be: respectful of its legendary lineage, but not afraid to take it to exciting new places,” we wrote at the time. “God of War Ragnarok is an almighty achievement and creates a new high that makes many of its peers look positively mortal by comparison.”
God of War: Ragnarok went on to win numerous awards after its release, subsequently receiving free DLC that introduced a new roguelike mode, and its PC release has long been anticipated by fans. Notably, God of War 2018 is highly-rated on Steam, currently sitting at Overwhelmingly Positive, with our deep dive explaining how Sony Santa Monica made its epic more accessible along with other improvements. We’ll see if we get more of the same from its sequel.
