The God of War series is one of the best action franchises in gaming history. Starting life on PlayStation 2, Kratos has traversed amazing mythological worlds laying waste to many of the inhabitants. Recent games have leaned towards the RPG genre and have become instant classics.

PlayStation Plus currently features five games from the acclaimed God of War series, all you need is a PS Plus Essential subscription. The collection features;

• God of War (2018)

The above list is the way to play if you want to follow Kratos' journey chronologically as he moves through his journey as the Spartan God of war and then into his current status as a father within the Nordic realms.

Whether this is your introduction to the series, or you're revisiting these classics, PlayStation Plus has your back. These five games feature hundreds of hours of hack and slash action, ancient mythology and gore. You'll be able to see as Kratos develops from being a killing machine, to a father with a heart trying to accept love and loss.

If you have an old PlayStation handheld, the PSP or PS Vita, you can carry on your Spartan warpath with Chains of Olympus and Ghost of Sparta, which were rated at the time as high as the home console entries.

If you have a PlayStation Plus Premium subscription, you can play a 3-hour trial of God of War: Ragnarok, the follow-up to 2018's soft reboot of God of War. The two latest games are hailed as masterpieces and are a must play for fans of action, RPG and mythology.
