The latest entry in Sony’s God of War series, God of War: Ascension, has launched on the PlayStation 3. I just cracked open my copy a couple of hours ago, and I’ve already gotten a feel for the game. There are some changes to the formula, as well as returning mechanics. Whether that’s good or bad, well, that’s really up to you and depends on how much innovation you were expecting or hoping for this time around.

Stay tuned right here on eXophase as I’ll be reviewing the game within the next few days. I’ve still got quite a chunk of the single player campaign to dig through, and I’ve yet to jump into the multiplayer.

Did you pick up Ascension? If so, what are your thoughts on the game so far? If not, will you be playing the game?
