2018’s God of War is one of the best exclusives of the PlayStation 4 era, and now it’s been confirmed that you will be able to take your save file to the PlayStation 5 without an issue.
If you’re just halfway through the game or post-game Valkyrie hunting, your save game file is ready to roll over to the new console whenever you feel like heading to the next generation of consoles. Sony Santa Monica confirmed this compatibility today in a tweet which you can see right here!
Whether you’re picking up the game for the first time or looking to finish that NG+ save, God of War (2018) on the #PS5 will offer:
🎞️ Up to 60 FPS using the ‘Favor Performance’ video option
🎮 Save Transfers – start right where you left off on the PS4!— Santa Monica Studio – God of War Ragnarök (@SonySantaMonica) October 26, 2020
The “favor performance” option also allows players to hit up to 60 fps, which is always nice when you want to land the hottest axes and tear up were-creatures to shreds. We expect to hear about tweaks, fixes, and other small changes like this for other titles heading from the PS4 to PS5, and we’ll keep you posted about details as they come in. Oh, and just in case you wanted to transfer your God of War III Remastered save to PS5, you can do that too!
You will also be able to transfer your God of War III Remastered saves to the #PS5!
