3.)The Beserker King

In lieu of the Valkyries, the player fights twelve Berserkers, and they offer a different sort of difficulty compared to the Valkyries. Their swings are heavy, but they are so wide that a wrong dodge could still catch Kratos unaware, and his jumping attack punishes slow reflexes. The danger with the Berserker King is how he mixes up attacks, often canceling certain patterns into others. While they can all be dodged, it’s a matter of knowing where to dodge, as each mix-up covers the most ground. Although not as punishing as the Valkyries, they still offer a great challenge for players.

5.)Thor

The first Aesir that Kratos fights, Thor was the stinger of the previous game. Fans were excited to see how his fight would fare against Baldur’s. It did not disappoint, and many players found themselves at the mercy of the God of Thunder. This Thor is closer to the Norse myth than the Marvel one is, looking more like a boisterous warrior than a male model. The fight is one of attrition, much like Baldur’s, especially so early in the game when Kratos doesn’t have all of his gear and skills yet. They can only rely on their skill. Plus, it’s just as spectacular as Baldur’s fight, making even the times when the player is beaten just as awesome looking.

6.)Heimdall

Heimdall is a smarmy and patently annoying heel who holds no sweetness with Thor as he does in the MCU interpretation. The fact that the first fight against him was a total squash serves to further frustrate the player. Kratos has had his fair share of loudmouth braggarts to fight against, but Heimdall is arguably among the worst.Kratos had to go out of his way to find a special spear that could actually hurt him. Even then, the boss fight is reminiscent of bosses like Baldur and Hermes, only this time, Kratos cannot use anything but the spear, which can prove a challenge for those who favor the axe or blades.
