- The God of War Series has delighted gamers since 2005 with amazing graphics, excellent combat, and a captivating story. But the boss fights are something everybody remembers after the credits roll.
And now that God of War Ragnnarok and God of War Valhalla have been released, I thought it was the time to finally update my ranking.
Here are all 53 God of War Bosses Ranked from worst to best.

Ah man, you forgot the Aphrodite boss fight. It had me sweating like never before
Fr. Playing with one hand gets really difficult.
@HishamA.N_Comicbroe I asked my sister for help so I can use 2 hands
Now I can't unread these.
Too funny
@@GalaxyDestroyer622 oh man
BAEdes at number 3! LETS GO. My favorite boss in GoW3!
Really interesting list. Didn't expect Theseus to be so high. Guess you'll love your time with him when you dive into no upgrade runs. Until then... he's doing a fine job being a GATEKEEPER.
Thanks for the awesome video and effort.
Thought it was zeus
You did not say mr. Crabs as baedes
Please like and share, bro literally spent a quarter of his life on this video 😭
It's good to see you're OK. I'm hoping the next one is good news as well.
I shared to FB 🙃
Nah fr how long did this take💀
Damn, 19 years, that's a long time... I seriously do respect Kuba for making this, though, it's nearly exactly 1 hour long. This man has dedication, and deserves at least twice as many subs as he already has.
Y’all may not believe it but I was actually the line leader in elementary 🗿
Absolute CHAD behaviour.
🫡
Chad 🗿
Ermmm, what the sigma?
Step aside Charles, we’ve found a real king
Just started my 2nd NG+ play through for Ragnarök and goddamn its bosses are so good. Personally my favourite bosses in the whole series gotta be GoW3 Zeus, 3rd Baldur fight, and first Thor fight
Great choices
Baldur was really overrated he had like 3 attacks while you the player also had like 3 attacks
@@abdulkadirjannes yeah but it’s partly just the fight was badass and also it’s about the culmination of everything you’ve learned throughout the game as Kratos and Atreus finally work together coherently
@@CozzmicK1ng ow u mean the final fight! Yeah that one was pretty decent prob in my top 15 atleast. I’m sorry mate I thought u where talking about the first fight which is imo really meh.
@@CozzmicK1ngFor that reason alone, the final fight is good, followed by the spectacle it offers and how it ends, the bad thing (for me of course) Baldur is a little repetitive in his attacks, he has some new ones but I don't know, in essence they are very similar to his first attacks in that first fight, only with fire, his life bar seems to have been doubled, or that's what it feels like in ng+, I think he has too much life or that feeling, and the ice giant is very cool and everything but he's useless and even annoying at times, although well this is the least bad because at least it gives a spectacle, and it is half justified because Thamur in this game was not a warrior in itself.
Cerberus fight before Zeus in GoW 3 better be on here
Edit: It’s not here
Good, I hate that guy
Was it a boss fight ? It was a mini boss i think so ut doesnt fit in the list
He said that cuz it was ridiculously hard
@@lazarlocic5342 ridiculously hard ? Am not sure about that brother
@@daverock9091You would know if you didn't just use your whole magic bar and rage and on a higher difficulty
I personally think the OG was the best when it came to the Greek Mythology series.
The Hydra and Minotaur are too iconic, and the Ares fight was just too cool a moment. Especially since it came at a time when the ending narration from the first game hadn't yet been retconned out.
Hi Kaptain Kuba. How about ranking sex mini games in god of war for your next video?
Idiot question 🤣😭
It would make a good skit. He starts the video saying he’s gonna rank the best scenes, but then you hear Kona in the background go:
“Kuba! What are you doing?”
Then kuba freaks out and it ends on stock audio of a scuffle.
1 Gow 3
2 ghost of sparta
3 god of war 2
4 god of war 1
5 chains of Olympus
38:18 i can feel you energy 🔥. And as god of war fan this feel satisfying too. What a nice video man.
The first fight with baldur is one of my all time favorites. That was a one of kind experience. The brief build up to the fight and the fact the fight actually felt like two gods fighting.
As someone who's favorite story boss fight in the norse games is heimdall.
Your criticisms are completely valid lmao. Although as the game doesn't actively prevent you from being an absolute gigachad with how you disorient him, I personally don't hold it against the fight.
Odin fight is so dissapointing when literally he can transform in a god double of the size of Kratos
Not only the horse, literally the ability he has ALL THE GAME
All the Greek gods can be the same size as a Titan, but they never show this ability too
@@Sun-God2 50/50 Poseidón and Hades are Big but is useless versus Kratos
Damn even Cronos can't beat Kratos
If you watch the DLC Tyr size is more strong than useless AGAINST Kratos is like equal fight
Odin doesn't look like a final Boss to me, every final boss, even Persephone, looks like final Boss with different form and such, but Odin just use different move and keeping using fire/ice protection, he sucks so hard.
@@Sun-God2 stop the cap. Poseidon hades Zeus and Ares all fought you in Large forms
@@faLLen_Apollyon23 he really truly does Odin could've been just so much better
I'm sorry, I strongly disagree. The #1 boss fight is the one against Hera. The most exciting, challenging and unforgettable fight of all time.
The heimdall fight is way up there in like my top 5 favorite bosses, but i do agree that it couldve been made harder considering Heimdall's abilities. Imagine if (after you hit him the first time) you had to bring up his stun bar all the way in order to damage to him through the entire fight, i imagine it being like you overloading his senses manually with the spear (rather than it being implied thats what ur doing while just being able to hit him freely) and then dealing more and more damage to him as he gets frustrated and as kratos holds back less. Basically just making it more gradual yet intense.
Even tho thatd be cool, im happy with what i got. I absolutely love fights thaat are 1 on 1 duels and a battle to the death, so any fight like that immediately is gonna be way up in my list like Zeus, sigrun, and thor etc. Honestly, the only thing keeping me from rating it #1 is that it's not AS hard as other bosses and that really plays a role because I really like the struggle and challenge
the ost for fighting Baldur is just chefs kiss , perfect
The 3rd Baldur fight was better than the 2nd Thor fight.
In spectacle yes, in entertainment I prefer the other.
Espectacle yes
Entertaiment and mechanicly yeah thor all the day.
haha no
@@TheBlackAdder1964 way more epic.
CAP
In my opinion baldur is the best boss fight. For the amazing camera work and the unique scene transition this boss fight became a benchmark and is one of the best boss fights in history.
🤣🤣🤣
@@mando7323 he is not wrong
@@user-ni7ui1nk8p Where in my comment did I say he was? 🧐
Hades the best boss fight in the series.
The editing was top notch 😂😂
Respect for Akira Toriyama mention
I really love ur work keep up the good work
Putting castor and pollux on 37 is criminal, easily one of the best boss in ascension
One of the best boss in the series, better then hydra, Kronos, Poseidon, collosus. I was surprised see hydra higher then minotaur and Odin.
Me: (about to sleep)
Kaptain kuba: (uploads GOW vid)
Me who has work very early tomorrow morning: Yeah, i got time :)
Saaaaame. It is currently 5:46 AM for me
BRO I was just watching your old video on this the other day. Just discovered your channel but your content is awesome.
Keep it up bro
Thank you 😊
Thor’s final fight may not have been the God of War 3 level spectacle we were hoping for but there’s plenty to love about it. His upgraded move set is fun & fair to dodge, once you’ve got it memorised it becomes an elaborate back & fourth between you. The VA really went all out with his last lines. Thor is *absolutely furious*
Blood drunk & regular drunk. On a 2nd playthrough I realised how tragic dialogue really is. Thor’s falling back into his old ways, as a mindless murder machine for the Allfather to control & only Kratos can beat it out of him. His Viking Rage (?) state is awesome with all the electricity & glowing blue eyes. Matching it with Spartan rage just feels SO badass. Just like the first fight, every blow sends you flying, but there’s new threats from the thunderstorms he calls & the flying slams. And lightsaber duelling with the leviathan axe against Mjölnir at the end never gets old.
And the music in the final phase… just give it a listen.
9/10 fight, just needed to be longer.
Amazing video. All those memories...
I would put Heimdall much higher because I love how he is one of the few who breaks the fourth wall, it's fun. The problem I see is that his fight is much more interesting if your character is at the minimum level, because the boss dodges your attacks much more, in that sense he still has the "hit him at the right moment" factor that I feel is missing. It complements very well with its third phase, which is much more chaotic. With Zeus from gow 3 what happens to me happens to you with the Ragnarok bosses or with the game itself (I think) that phrase "it could have been much better."
I mean, why didn't Zeus use the chains of Olympus gauntlet? Why didn't he become a giant again? Why does it seem like he uses the same attacks as in gow 2? The 2D thing was something that we already saw in gow 2 with the last spartan and its third phase with the clones or it is very easy or very difficult, curiously that depends on the player, since if you use certain magic the boss can use more or fewer clones, making it in theory more difficult, but then there is the thing about Gaia's heart that makes the fight very easy since you have infinite life, if you know what to do you can heal yourself infinitely, and Zeus won't be able to do anything about it, he doesn't have any attacks Let it punish that great advantage that we have, at most the attack where it goes to the heart but it is very slow, I don't want it to be misunderstood, I like the fight, and no one can take away the spectacle it offers, but I don't know, All those things that I mentioned resonate in my head every time I replayed his fight, plus the darkness part is a lot to me when it comes to replaying the boss, I always skip it and I think that's the reason why I don't replay his fight much , I'm not exaggerating when I say that I have fought Heimdall or Thanatos like 30 times while with Zeus at most 10.
PS: I would never put Cronos so high on the list, mostly because it is NOT fun to replay, but I understand that it is because of the spectacle it offers
I had the same experience, those ideas could've really Made it better.
For me i spet more Time with hercules, Thor (both fights), Magni and Modi, Odin, baldur and heimdall and especially Tyr.
I definetly like GOW2 Zeus better for some of those reasons.
Idk why would Cronos be more replayable than at least Thor, he's a level more than anything.
@@davidemanuelarroyoportacio9499 The fight against Zeus in Gow 2 It hurts whoever it hurts is more varied without losing spectacularity, although in that aspect the third one wins, with Cronos I tried to replay it and the truth is I couldn't, when a boss is only spectacular and that's it, the magic of That fight goes quickly.
Cronos is really overrated he is just a spectacle that you enjoy first time only most of gow3 bosses are spectacle tbh only zues,hades and Hercules are great boss fight in gow3 in my opinion
@@thelegandgamer2830 I feel the same, The problem with gow 3 with the bosses is that the balance regarding the quality of those bosses is very chaotic, it starts strong with Poseidon along with his hippocamps and Hades, then goes down with Helios and Hermes, it goes up again with Hercules, Go down a little with Cronus and go down again with the scorpion, the Cerberus mini boss and go up again with Zeus, I agree with you. although I would also add Poseidon (only if we also include the fight against the horse, since it is still part of him).
55:50 no way i did the exact same thing in my video
I can’t believe you put Heimdall so far back
The magni and modi fight was so hard in new game plus
Nidhog was amazing!!
It did take you out of the fight but the fog part of the Magni and Modi fight was so perfect. It's meant to be their like super special combo attack; it's probably been responsible for many deaths of their enemies. However, Kratos easily handles it, which shows his skill
Personally my only disagreement is Heimdall. Personally he’s top 5 for me. Love the way he moves, love all his phases, and his voice actor nails it. In the first stage with Gulltoppr, he’s not getting hurt and just his ride so he’s not taking it seriously. The second phase he’s doing his uses thing of just dodging and blocking every single attack. In the third phase after you hit him, he’s clearly pissed and starts actually fighting you, the second phases attacks being mostly him playing around. The final phase though? JESUS. That initial charge grab attack legitimately made me jump. I love the insanity in that phase and the music is amazing. Plus I love that Heimdall’s theme is just an upgraded Magni and Modi. My real only issue with the fight is it didn’t have the motif that Thor and Odin’s songs do.
Heimdall deserved his own soundtrack, (and no, I don't mean untouchable)
@@martinc8965 I don’t get the untouchable thing, but yeah. He definitely needed his own distinct theme, but the again, his final phase’s song is so different it almost counts.
@@TurgoLBX2510 Oh really? Personally, it sounds almost the same as that of Magni and Modi, and the thing about "untouchable" is that there is an edit on TH-cam that fits the character like a glove.
@@martinc8965 honestly I kinda would’ve liked if his theme, LIKE EVERY OTHER MEMBER OF HIS FAMILY, had some vocal chorus. It just feels less epic than everyone else, even though it is my favourite boss in Ragnarök.
@@TurgoLBX2510 I don't think Baldur's had a chorus either but it was dynamic, catchy, something that the others (Tyr, Odin and Thor) also had, something like that for the character wouldn't have bothered me either, but well, he's still one of my favorite bosses.
Hey Kuba it's Charles the lawyer, i really your video, i learn a lot from it about the greek saga, i also agreed with the fact the final fight with Thor and Odin aside not being cinematic have a really good movesets that i like more after playing NG+ multiple time even tho in my opinion it still does not make up of the lack of spectacle in the Ragnarok battle and its one of the reason i like more Spiderman 2 because not it has a really good and dark story ( especialy with the symbiote, Kraven and Venom),the bosses are very epic climactic ,the first boss remind me of the Colossus of rhodes and one the boss fight ( i'm not gonna spoil this one because it's liked to the biggest surprise of the game) its more brutal, climactic and impactfull than Kratos vs Heimdall. And i laugh lot at this part 20:20 😂😂😂
Heracles also had the fact going for it that Kratos was willing to talk and trying to make Heracles see reason and step aside
I like the editing in this video. Specifically how you say the lines and the cinematic is going on in the background
Man, the Greek era games were so fun. I love the new games too, and the new bosses are “mechanically” better. But I really miss the scale and spectacle and brutal carnage of the Greek era.
I'm a newer god of war fan (I've only played 3, 4, and Ragnarok) and for me, The second Thor boss fight is one of my favorite boss fights I've ever done. Sure the spectacle isn't crazy but the narrative, the emotion, THE MUSIC are all just on a different level. For the first time we see Kratos trying to reason with his enemy because he sees so much of himself in Thor. It's just genius from a writing perspective.
Seeing all these bosses back to back makes me realize how many in the Greek games just have a ton of limbs for no reason
Damn!!! Kaptain Kuba I really enjoyed your video a lot, it was amazing felt like a whole recap of god of war series.
This video is just too great and too much of hard work but still only 2.2k like come on guys show some support and hit the like button.
Thank you ♥️
Absolutely love this video, Kuba's fan cries and geeking outs made me smile every time, thank you for sharing your thoughts and emotions ❤
(But man you did Hecatoncheires dirty 😂 The more i replay the game, the more i like this fight, i put it much much higher personally)
I love listening to Kap speaking on how he loves certain bosses lol
I'd put the first thor fight top 3 just for the most unique death message part, never been caught so off-guard in any game I've played or movie I've seen.
On par with thanos snapping half away and the movie just ends..
Kratos straight up dying
2 of the best scenes in entertainment for me
Good work!
19:44 i have issues with this one particular ranking, and solely because of this. The thing is, the entire 'heimdall first hit' phase has three sections right. The first section is where he doesent know what tf draupnir is and what it does. Thats the part where he just grabs the spear and looks at it. Ofc, looks dumb in retrospect but its just him trying to gauge the intent behind us throwing that spear because it didnt do shit to him and then Boom! In his face.
Now that he has seen the explosive draupnir move, he's a bit more cautious. Rather than grabbing the spear, he now uses the sword to deflect the spear away from him. But he doesent see the intent behind the spear again. The spear doesent necessarily have to be in contact with the person to stun em, it can explode from the ground as well. So boom again, in his face.
The third section is my favorite, because by now Heimdall is a lot more cautious and not only deflects the spear but immediately moves away from it as well. This part gets very strategic and the fact is that there are SOOO many things u can do here. U can throw one spear to his left and right side, then one right at him, and then tag him. You can throw one right at ur feet and then wait until he moves towards you to triangle his ass. You can use rage to make him dash away from u to get him in position for the perfect traingle explosion.
Heimdall boss fight is legit in my top 5 boss fights of GoW for this reason. I respect your opinion on it, just wanted to point out a few things here.
Yup, was thinking all this myself. Bro was probably playing on a low difficulty (no hate) so he just didn’t have to notice the nuances between each part of the phase.
14:45
Killer crok would be proud.
KC: and then i hit him with a rock
Heimdall is Wayyyyyy to low. I think our Collective hate for heimdall is making us blind as to just how awesome his boss fight was. That fight is Leagues better than Odin, Thor ( 2nd boss ), Freya, Clotho, Fat Gorgon, Pandoras guardian Etc.
True.
Mechanically it's a great fight.
People only complain because the spears shouldn't work on him but they had to make up something and I'm fine with what we ended up with
I love the third phase Ares fight mechanic. I wish the shared health bar was in more games.
Finally someone said that The Sisters of Fate are Goated. Liked.
Loved the video kuba happy your back bro also you should do a video of your top favorite boss fights in gaming
Zeus, your son has returned . Athena, you betrayed me. Gaia, you lied to me.
Sigrun was the hardest ever and most rewarding after you beat her, after comes Ares.
When you compare the two gods on the thumbnail it's like the lung of the smoker before and after smoking.
Lol so true
Ah the return begins
great vid thanks
Kap when will you colab again with extremegamplays?
You know some biased are bad when I've completely forgotten all about them lol
Barbarian king above Zeus in part 2 is crazy
Anyone know what the song at 1:47 is? Atmospheric Greek music but I’m not sure it’s part of any of the osts
the sisters of fate fight was truly amazing , challenging and difficult for the ps2
This vid mustve taken hours to upload. Good video choice.
I think tyr has gatta be one of my new favorite bosses honestly, i was sad thinking it wouldve gotten the same boss to beat over and over again, however he technically has 4 different movesets that gets harder everytime, easily one of my new favorite bosses in the past few years all in a free dlc.
thank you kaptain kuba you made my day in this video i waasl ike when is this mf releasing the boss video and there uyou are the goat in the god of war communiuty
"Waiting three years to kill the main villain is a very long time"
Meanwhile Kingdom Hearts with all the side games made between 2 and 3...
I thought the dark elf king fight was really good. especially on Give Me God of War new game +. He has a couple of stronger moves than regular dark elves. Does he have copies afterwards? sure but that doesn't take away from that fight itself.
For gryla it feels less like ur fighting a Jotunn and more like ur fighting a giant from jack and the beanstalk. Would be cool if u get a game over if u hurt her too much cuz they aren’t actually trying to hurt her
Also funny how we’re ready for Thor in the intro boss but he’s just like “nah” but then later hits us with a “aight put them paws up rn”, but I’m not ready”, “good”, outta nowhere
Loved the Vid bro. Definitely disagree with Persephone placement. Sorry 😂
My personal top 5 (in no particular order):
1. Sigrun
2. Heimdall
3. Zeus (GOW 3)
4. The Stranger
5. Thor (1st Encounter)
Honorable Mention: Cronos. Just had to include everyone else.
21:36 Pandora Guardian
NGL I really hate those sirens summoned by Zeus in GOW2 it feels out of place. I'm glad you too noticed it
7:33 worst fight ever
How the fuck is that in a god of war game
Rank minibosses next!
Poseidon on 22, I don't wait for the rest ;)
08:22 why would you just waste your magic on the minatour when you need it for theseus lmao
God of War has some of the best bosses in all of gaming!
Wish we had more Poseidon though. But still a good fight in a book. That one line!
Finally!!! I just got out of work too
I was actually gonna guess the sisters as the best boss fight but i thought "nah its probably not"
If we’re gonna talk about “i had to go all out boss battle” Zeus from gow3 should be #1 because that battle is the most intense in the whole franchise
I mean I gave it the second spot, not much different
@@KaptainKuba yeah that’s alright ig
Love the fight but it ain’t that challenging
I CALLED IT. I CALLED HERCULES BEING NUMBER 10. Well, now that I did that, I suppose I should just say... idk. Go drink some water.
while battling perseus you red orb number is 1312-acab, funny easter egg btw
41:34 wtf💀 dualshock 4 battery level low
How tf he play gow 2 on ps4💀💀💀
Nice!
💀 20:23 ayooo why is Clotho so high?
also nah aint no way Colosus of Rhoades is better than Poseidon its not even close
and once again Zeus gets the L from Kuba in favor of the other 2 sisters wich while amazing i'm sorry they ain't as good a boss as Zeus
cool list. zeus gow 2 and the minotaur would be higher for me
Ah yes, the queen of the underworld…perephone
All them boss fights, but Atlas is still holding up the earth..
Personally, I’d put Garm a lot higher. You made a good point about the chain freeze mechanic but it more than makes up for it with the sheer scale, build up, music, chase, intensity and that fear you get from the very realistic growls. Not to mention the story line journey of healing between father and son.
2nd
Crazy how many bosses there have been
I genuinely don't understand this list. You rank Heimdall so low because he could have been more but don't actually rank him based on the fight itself? You said you adore 2/3 stages and the only thing you didn't like about thr second phase is that is mildly betrayed the design philosophy. Even then Heimdall grabbing the spear and looking at it weirdly makes total narrative sense. He's an extremely egostistical dickhead who believes he's untouchable. He doesn't show concern grabbing the spear because hes so concited to believe kratos can't hurt him
Sisters of fate was legendary, in every possible way
Clotho better than Heimdall?! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Oh you
The second phase of Hemidall would've been great if instead of making his more offensive they made him more defensive and made it so you were forced to use the spear more
fight him with Spartan armor, the guy dodges much more the lower your level, which is sad, because that's how his fight should have been with a normal level.
What side are you on
Fight Hrist
Fight Mist
I just got my plate after work let's gooooooooooooooo!!!!!!! RAHHHHHH!!!!
I have to say though you had some good statements, Heimdall was still arguably one of the best fights ever. Him being the one to realm shift instead of us was so cool. I would easily say top 10 or 5
Absolutly every😂🤦♂️ and you missing like 30
Where are 8 valkyres,12 berserkers,medusa,cerberus,icarus,helios,hepheastus,blazing cerberus and many more…
0:49 - 2:32 answers your question
I feel that i was anticipating zeus in part 3 more than i was anticipating odin
You missed the Alva boss. It was harder than the dark elf king. By the way, the video was great.
Modi should have died first and we could've fought Magni again later on. Or fought him and Thor at the same time in ragnarok. I liked magni way more
Yeah the hydra fight made me a fan too
Your number one I agree with
the dark elf king is memorable for me cuz he kicked my ass and i only played the game in give me god of war.
