1. Ares - God of War (2005)
Remember when Kratos was just a dude with a vendetta and a serious attitude problem? Well, the fight against Ares in the original God of War is where it all kicked off. Ares, the God of War himself, is a massive, terrifying presence with godly powers and an equally godly amount of rage. The final showdown is a blend of intense combat and strategic thinking, making it an unforgettable clash. If you haven't played it yet, what are you even doing with your life?
2. Zeus - God of War III
Zeus, the big cheese of Olympus, gets his moment in the spotlight in God of War III. This fight isn’t just a battle; it’s a full-on emotional rollercoaster. Kratos faces off against his father in a spectacular final confrontation filled with rage, betrayal, and a lot of lightning. The scale of this battle is immense, and watching Kratos go full beast mode on his own father? Absolutely epic.
3. Hades - God of War III
If you thought Hades was just the guy who keeps souls in check, think again. In God of War III, Hades is a boss fight that’s as brutal as it is memorable. The battle takes place in the Underworld, and let’s just say Hades really knows how to throw a party—complete with chains, undead minions, and a level of aggression that’s off the charts. This fight truly shows how much Kratos has grown since his early days.
4. Baldr - God of War (2018)
In the 2018 God of War, Baldr is the big bad who brings the fight to Kratos in a way that’s both physical and emotional. The battle against this Norse god is a dance of brutality and strategy, pushing Kratos to his limits. The fight is not just about raw power but also about understanding Baldr’s motivations and how they intertwine with Kratos’ own journey. It's intense, personal, and visually stunning.
5. Thor - God of War: Ragnarök
Ah, Thor. The thunder god himself makes his thunderous entrance in God of War: Ragnarök. This fight is one of the most epic and visually stunning battles in the series. Thor’s raw power and relentless aggression make for a battle that’s both thrilling and challenging. His immense size, lightning attacks, and sheer ferocity push Kratos to his limits in a clash that’s as much about skill as it is about strategy. The fight against Thor isn’t just about defeating a god; it’s about surviving an onslaught of thunderous fury and proving Kratos’ dominance in the Norse pantheon.
