The PC version of God of War Ragnarok doesn’t offer many opportunities to scale beyond the PlayStation 5’s Quality display modes, but with some choice mods, the latest entry in the series can look outright gorgeous.
A new 8K resolution video shared on YouTube by Beyond Dreams shows the game running with ReSTIR G.I. in Complete Ray Tracing and a custom ReShade preset which bring improved global illumination, ambient occlusion, enhanced FOV, Color grading, and more. In pretty much every scenario shown in the video, the mods make the game look incredible and much better than it does on PlayStation 5.
The PC version of God of War Ragnarok comes complete with the Valhalla expansion that was released for free on consoles last year. The expansion is a great addition to the experience, managing to introduce a roguelite tweak that works incredibly well, as I highlighted in my review.
For a free expansion, God of War Ragnarok: Valhalla offers quite a lot. The roguelite take on the base game’s formula works extremely well, thanks to the excellent combat system, which truly shines in the extreme combat scenarios Kratos will have to conquer to confront his past and finally make a step towards the future. Its short length, which prevents the adventure from overstaying its welcome, and excellent accessibility with multiple difficulty settings that don’t lock content behind them, also make the expansion one that all those who loved the base game should play.
God of War Ragnarok is now available on PC, PlayStation 5, and PlayStation 4 worldwide.
