God of War is an action-adventure game developed by Santa Monica Studio and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE). It was released worldwide on April 20, 2018, for the PlayStation 4 with a Microsoft Windows version released on January 14, 2022. (Wikipedia).

Engine: Sony Santa Monica in-house engine. We test using the Ultra preset, DX11 API.

Performance levels in God of War are similar to Dying Light 2, as the RTX 4070 again delivers 93FPS on average, but this time that makes it 9% slower than the RTX 3080 and just 5% faster than the RX 6800. We're also looking at just a 13% improvement versus the RTX 3070 Ti.

Upping the resolution to 4K still sees perfectly playable frame rates from the RTX 4070, and this time the 4070 has caught up with the 6800 XT, as it now lags behind by just 4%. Against the 4070 Ti however, we're still looking at a 20% deficit.
