L’Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences ha assegnato a God of War il titolo di Game of the Year 2018, insieme naturalmente a tutti gli altri premi dell’ultima edizione dei prestigiosi D.I.C.E. Awards. Nella cerimonia tenutasi a Las Vegas, l’iconico action con protagonista il dio della Guerra di Sony Santa Monica è stato il trionfatore indiscusso della manifestazione, portandosi a casa tutti premi nelle categorie in cui era candidato.
Rimangono così a bocca asciutta (o quasi) gli sviluppatori degli altri grandi kolossal del 2018 videoludico appena trascorso: tra questi, impossibile non citare Red Dead Redemption 2, Forza Horizon 4, Monster Hunter World, Celeste e Marvel’s Spider-Man.
