If you haven’t seen the previews of Final Fantasy 16 and you are an OG God Of War fan, go watch them NOW. As I was watching I said to myself, “This is everything I wanted in a sequel to the classic God Of War games”. God Of War 3 was my favorite and I still replay it to this day. I am one of those that was disappointed in the new God Of War. Not because it wasn’t good, but because it didn’t really feel like God Of War. It was missing all those amazing boss battles and crazy stuff like ripping helios’ head with all the epic events and, maybe im in the minority, but i loved the epic QTE events.
Final Fantasy 16 has it all in spades except with deeper combat and even more epic set pieces (its amazing how the Final Fantasy games are all so EPIC compared to other games, no matter if you’ve liked them or not) . From the preview, it looks to me like God Of War set in the Lord Of The Rings universe but with the deeper combat mechanics of Bayonetta and Devil May Cry. Also the music, my God! (Of War). Really pumped for this release.
As you watch the footage below, imagine if the main protagonist was Kratos and it would fit perfectly. This is Next Gen God Of War. Also, its only on Next Gen systems
