Kratos must go to war with himself in order to win a Twitter competition put together by Sony, because the final bout as PlayStation fans pick their favourite games is God of War versus God of War Ragnarok. At the time of writing, the poll that determines the winner still has 16 hours left to run, and the results so far are absurdly close. God of War has 48.1 per cent of the vote and God of War Ragnarok has 51.9 per cent — your vote really could have a significant impact at the moment.
Each title worked its way from opposite sides of the ballot, with God of War overcoming Gran Turismo 7 and Marvel's Spider-Man to make the final. On the other side, God of War Ragnarok beat out competition from Demon's Souls and The Last of Us Part II. There had been some disappointment from fans that hardcore favourites like Bloodborne weren't included in the competition, but judging by the results of the earlier rounds, the cinematic Sony games were always going to be the ones progressing.
If you had the deciding vote, which God of War game would you give the win to? Make your choice in the poll on Twitter and let us know which title you chose in the comments below.

I think the first one wowed me more, but Ragnarok is a really good game.
Not as good as Bloodborne mind.
Just in case you winner why Sony doesn't make all those old-timey arcade style games and RPGs any longer, it's just as the article said - the most popular games are the grandiose cinematic adventures.
Kratos the g.o.a.t. 🐐 👑.in my the rock voice it doesn't matter.both 2018 god of war and god of war ragnarok are 2 of the best video games ever made.word up son
It warms my heart that Death Stranding beat a Spider-Man game.
They obviously didn't dare put the real winner in the competition: Tokyo Jungle!
@Perturbator I’d vote Tokyo Jungle over TLoU or GoW and definitely over Spider-Man.
GoW 1 & 2 combined don't even come close to LOTR: Gollum. The agenda obviously continues.
Replaying 2018 reminds me of how high my hopes and expectations were for Ragnarok, and how they were never met despite my love for it.
I voted 2018.
If only they allowed War Gods Zeus of Child in the bracket. A shame that masterpiece never made it on PlayStation.
Loved both god of war games, while I think (2018) was more revolutionary for the series and Ragnarok didn't iterate on that much overall think Ragnarok is the refined version of 2018 and is better in every aspect.
Insert joke about American politics here
Bit of a pointless poll if it has multiple Spider Man/GoW games and no Bloodborne though.
I was a bit disappointed in Ragnarok so I'd definitely go with 2018. Ragnarok is good but the Atreus sections were pretty bad and I just thought 2018 had a more gripping narrative overall.
Ghost of Tsushima the true winner in my heart though. Really can't wait to see what Sucker Punch is cooking up with the sequel.
Even if I care for neither (played better of other Sony IPs or older console games with far better ideas and execution then them as like with most things in modern gaming even for linear games or hub ones played better mechanics, better stories and better artstyles) to me 2018 has less nonsense.
Multi-game in a series polls are dumb. It's series or the one offs.
Ragnarok fixes things but also adds a lot of unnecessary too or drags on just as much. It took it in fair directions (also takes from Gears 5 the breaks from the linear). I beat 2018 and hated it so I didn't play Ragnarok but from hearing what people say of it or seeing what I have from their playthroughs yeah I can tell some of it's additions weren't worth it. I would have hated it even more than 2018 if I did play it.
I wouldn't even vote. Not because I don't use Twitter but besides Returnal eh options listed.
I love how they put the most pitiful options on it too. What a joke. Some that will obviously win let alone barely enough exciting options to compete. It's always a popularity contest.
Even with polls of great characters or great gameplay. Most people haven't even played them so why bother. They are worthless. Anyone that knows already knows the answers before they even start. Withholding some series would make it better balanced but how many would even vote if they haven't even played them. Exactly better results.
@somnambulance its miles morales, lol! seriously? I'd expect a full new original game to beat some DLC too.
I love all God of War games. Ragnorok has a lot of great fun gameplay and replay but it lacked those epic boss battles. The storyline wasn’t bad but it also wasn’t anything memorable.
God of War (2018) surprised me with how excellent it was, minus some gameplay nitpicks. Ragnarok was…disappointing, from my perspective.
Weird though, this poll reminds me that, despite loving a lot of Sony exclusives, my favorite games from the past five or six years were not Sony owned. Lot of good games these days.
I voted for Ragnarok, the dlc pushed it over for me. It really feels like infinity war vs endgame.
Both are amazing. But I think Ragnarok edges it.
most st*pid poll ive seen
2-3 same games on a poll while other titles didnt even made an appearance lol
I checked out the Twitter and all the games there are either PS5 or have a PS5 patch, which Bloodborne doesn't. I'm up for the campaign to get that at least done, maybe as a reward for us interacting. Bloodborne 60fps come on!
