Too bad the upgrade isn't free. I'll wait for the ps5 ver to go down to 20.
This. Completed both GOW and GOWR on PS4 pro, both looked amazing, but a bit burned out now on the combat style for a while. Had to push myself through GOWR, ending was worth it. Probably get back into GOW on the third entry, hoping for a big setting change. Heard rumors of ancient Egypt, that would be wild.

Ultimately, the difference between the PS4 version and the God of War Ragnarok PS5 upgrade are the options for graphical performance. As detailed in our God of War Ragnarok performance guide, the PS5 version of the game offers a much larger variety of graphics options affecting resolution and FPS; these most notably include the Favours Quality Mode with 4K resolution and 30FPS, and the Favours Performance mode with 1440-2160p resolution whilst targetting 60FPS.
By comparison, the PS4 PRO version only has two modes favouring performance or quality - targetting 30FPS or 1440-1656p respectively. On the standard PS4, God of War Ragnarok only comes with one mode, targeting 1080p resolution and 30FPS.
In addition to far more graphical performance options, the God of War Ragnarok PS5 upgrade will provide PlayStation 5-exclusive features: far faster loading times thanks to the current-gen system's SSD, and haptic feedback via the DualSense controller for a more immersive experience when exploring the game's world - such as when you're recalling the Leviathan Axe, or travelling via your dog-pulled sled in a snowy Midgard.
This game is an absolute masterpiece! The graphics, gameplay, fight mechanics, script and voice acting are incredible. Hard enough where it will challenge you, especially on GMGoW (hardest) difficulty but incredibly satisfying when you defeat the bosses. I easily have over 200 hours into it. I completed all the challenges and was FINALLY able to get the Platinum trophy and I'm not a "trophy hunter". The game just left me wanting more and more.
This is the first game that I can say uses the full graphics processing power of the PS5 and doesn't feel at all like you are playing some kind of emulator. Generational game. Can't wait for the FREE DLC (Dec 12th)! Thievery at this price!
Well shit... I got this for Black Friday from Best Buy and haven't even played it yet.
How big of a pain in the ass is it for them to do the holiday price matching and save $5?
Should be easy. I got them to do a $20 match for a copy of Hogwarts I bought Nov 14th since it is on sale right now and it took about 5 minutes in chat with a rep.

Depends on how far away from a Best Buy you live, and how much your time is worth. I got Miles Morales for $19.99 a few weeks ago and then a week later they had it for $17.99 for a day. I hadn't opened mine, but it wasn't worth trying to save $2.

Thanks!! Seems like it's a good idea to get the PS5 version
I just got the PS5 "slim" and thinking about getting GOW: R. I'm debating whether getting the PS4 disc version (since the PS5 is backward compatible & $10-less) or just get the PS5 disc version. Does anyone have experience playing the PS4 game-disc on their PS5 system? Any thoughts on this ... ?
