God of War fans were upset to hear that there won’t be a God of War 4 anytime soon… but most of those feelings were washed away once they saw footage of God of War: Ascension. It’s the newest game in the GOW series which is not only a full action game that serves as a prequel to the first God of War, but also a multiplayer bloodbath. You can join other players online and slay beastly creatures together… and each other. The official God of War site sums it up like so…
“You will start as a lowly warrior who pledges himself to a god and compete to bring glory and honor to Zeus, Ares, Poseidon, or Hades. Gain their Favor to master new abilities, magic, armor, and unique weapons as you rise to become the favored Champion and Legend of Olympus.”
