Rank God of War Games

About this poll

From Greek tragedy to Norse saga — rank Kratos. Gaming rankings sit at the intersection of nostalgia, mechanical appreciation, and pure fun. The game you spent a summer mastering will always punch above its weight on your tier list, and that's part of what makes these debates worth having. The lineup includes God of War (2018), Ragnarok, God of War III, God of War II, and 4 more.

Why the question is worth voting on

Game rankings reflect what you played and when. The titles you spent the most hours on get nostalgia weight that newer entries can't match. That's not a bug — that's how lived experience works. Vote your tier list honestly, then look at the aggregate to see whose memory of the franchise looks like yours.

How voting works

This is a tier-list poll. You'll see each option one at a time and decide whether it goes in S, A, B, C, D, or F tier. S is reserved for genuine peaks — items that clearly stand above the rest. F is for the ones you'd actually call bad. The middle tiers are for everything else, and the cluster sizes don't have to be equal.

Where the consensus stands

This poll is fresh — your vote is among the first. Be early. The first 100 voters disproportionately shape the consensus, because each new vote becomes a smaller fraction of the total. Lock in your tier list and check back later to see how the aggregate shifts as more people weigh in.

A note on methodology

Hot Ranking uses an anonymous browser fingerprint to ensure each browser votes once per poll. We don't store accounts or personal information; the aggregate you see is the unweighted result of every legitimate vote, with rate limiting in place to filter automated submissions. Results update in real time once you submit. You can read more about how voting works in our About page, and how we handle data in our Privacy Policy.
