2018 has been a gamers delight. From Ubisoft to Santa Monica to Crytek, gaming companies have released stunning open-world games which have raised the bar and brought in a whole new world for gamers. Based on demand on Mutterfly, we have narrowed down the Top 2 games of the year to God of War 4 & Red Dead Redemption 2. Read along and see what our gaming expert, Shyam Desai, has to say about the game which emerges as the winner.
Before getting into an in-depth comparison lets have a brief synopsis of both of the AAA titles.
God Of War 4
Defeating the Gods of Olympus, Kratos now lives with his son and the days of vengeance are far behind him. Now Kratos and his son are living in the untamed forests, mountains, and realms of Norse mythology.
Red Dead Redemption 2
RDR 2 is an epic tale of America’s unforgiving wild west. Here you play as an outlaw who has to flee after a robbery goes horribly wrong. With federal agents and best bounty hunters after their head, you have to run, rob and kill in order to survive.
Gameplay
GOW 4 with its stunning visuals, crisp graphics and deep narration has become one of the best games you can play out there. While GOW 4 lets you explore amazing frozen lands of Norse mythology, in RDR 2 you step in like a badass cowboy in the beautiful lands of old America who has just entered a blooming stage of the industrial revolution
Campaign and Multiplayer
While God Of War only has a single player campaign in the bag, you can have a multiplayer game in RDR 2. However, when it comes to campaign mode, GOW 4 shines the brightest. A good storyline coupled with amazing gameplay is sure to give you an experience of a lifetime. But if you are someone who loves heart pumping action better than story, no game can stand as tall as RDR 2. Not just that if you’re someone who likes realism over fiction this is the game you choose
COST!
Currently, RDR 2 is selling for INR 4000 and God of war is selling for INR 3000 and to experience the divine gameplay of both you need a PlayStation 4 which will cost you INR 30,000 extra.

Winner
Here’s the catch, it all depends on the individual. If you are someone who is a sucker for action and beautifully real graphics Red Dead Redemption is the game you choose, not only it has great action over GOW 4 but also has a great replayability. God Of War 4 is a game for the fans of the series who would like to dive in the deep pool of Norse Mythology with an amazing storyline.
