God of War put in another appearance at Sony's E3 2017 press conference, coming out swinging with a great gameplay trailer. Once again, the game looks glorious - just look at the detail on Kratos' grizzled mug. The title's due in early 2018 on PlayStation 4.
The gameplay itself shows off combat, some cutscenes with the boy, and one heck of a big serpent. Check it out above.
What did you think of Kratos' latest showing? Don't start throwing axes in the comments section below.

Looked great!
We've been waiting since last year's E3 to play this. I can wait a few more months until release. Same goes for Spidey.
Game looks gorgeous.
As much as I'm looking forward to Monster Hunter this stole the show for me.
best franchise ever.best looking game on the ps4 .
Looked good - Hope it has evolved and this is representative.
Nice sub header
We dont need no PS5!
@G0dlike Thanks!
... Wait... Waaaaait just one darn second there!
@3Above I agree. There's still plenty of juice left in the PS4.
Its been confirmed that the gameplay trailer came from a STANDARD PS4. Incredible.
Don't like the new direction at all.
Take my money, take it all.
PS4 knocking it out of the park
GOW looks incredible cannot wait.
Wow day freakin one! Probably my most anticipated game now. Glad the combat still looked fast and furious... Was a bit concerned about that!
@Gamer83 Not to bash you or anything, but most of us or gamers do love this new look. God of War was the most watched video ( from previous E3)... i think that speaks volumes. I mean this speaks more to people than the previous god of wars.. Although god of war 3 was freaking awesome..
@Gamer83 I love the new GOW route if they would keep taking the same route it would become really boring fast. My personal thoughts.
Can't wait for this, also it's nice to see not all monster is boss fight
I hope this gow story is about kratos and the norse gods battle vs ragnarok.
@Flaming_Kaiser Yup, gow 1-3 and both psp gow is great, but by the start of ascension I really felt the greek mythology already played out, ascension really scrape the bottom of the barrel. Gow need new directions and gameplay.
Pretty underwhelming, I thought. Looks pretty and all, and I've no problem with changing up the gameplay in principle, but there wasn't anything unique there. Perhaps that's just the way the trailer was cut, though. It didn't have a very good flow to it and the final moment lacked gravitas.
I bet it'll come out in March.
It looks great... still not a fan of the shaky-cam though.
@wiiware @Flaming_Kaiser
The series did need a change from the Greek mythology, I agree with that. What it didn't need is to go from a fun, fast-paced action game to a slow, copy and paste clone of a Naughty Dog game.
@Sanquine
That's fine, I'm not trying to convince anybody to agree me with. I'm not surprised it's the most viewed trailer, GoW has been a big franchise for Sony since its debut. But we'll see what longtime fans and newcomers think when the game is finally out.
You know what else is coming in 2018? M- no. Too easy.
@Gamer83 I don't think I want another same gameplay for god of war, we already have 12 year of the same gameplay, at some point the games have to evolve.
@wiiware
Games can evolve without changing the basic formula. I also don't think turning it into a Naughty Dog game is 'evolving' and it is also hurts the variety of games. One of the reasons I'm disappointed there weren't more Japanese games announced is because it adds variety to Sony's lineup. Outside of San Diego, all Sony's teams might as well be part of Naughty Dog because the games are the exact same. There's no variety and that's not a good thing.
@Gamer83 Uncharted 4 is different than days gone is different than spiderman is different than knack 2 is different than god of war is different than gran turismo sport is different than shadow of the collosus hd is different than wipeout is different than detroid become human.
I can't agree that all sony team games is like naughty dog game.
More japanese games is not announced at sony e3 conference but ps4 is getting way more japanese games compared to competition.
