A God of War Ragnarok player has created an incredible montage highlighting the gameplay and combat mechanics of Kratos’ newest adventure. God of War Ragnarok is one of the highest-rated new games of the last few years, with only Elden Ring above it on Metacritic in 2022.
Like 2018’s God of War, God of War Ragnarok received several awards at the end of the year to go alongside its impressive critic score. At The Game Awards event in December, God of War Ragnarok received awards for its story, music, sound design, and more. With both gameplay and narrative being recognized, a fan now makes a montage highlighting the combat mechanic of Ragnarok.
A Reddit user named Much118 has shared a video that shows Kratos defeating a wide variety of enemies using the tools available in combat. The video combines both the Leviathan Axe and Blades of Chaos, highlighting Kratos’ deadly arsenal as he utilizes different types of attacks to take down his foes. Much118 has focused on the various Runic Attacks available in God of War Ragnarok for the Leviathan Axe and Blades of Chaos, mixing them up with the regular attack moves users can unlock for each weapon. Much of the video is synced to the music, as a fan claims it to be the Brothers of Blood track from God of War 3.

Kratos also makes use of Spartan Rage, a mechanic players can utilize to turn the tide in their favor, throughout the video. There are three categories of Spartan Rage available in God of War Ragnarok – Fury, Valor, and Wrath, each with its own unique benefits. Fury allows users to enter a state where gamers can unleash different attacks on enemies, with each hit healing them for a small amount. Valor is a more defensive approach, as players regain a considerable amount of HP upon activating it, while Wrath charges down enemies with the currently equipped weapon and deals massive damage.
Many users in the comments section praise the editing skills of Much118, with one stating this video could work as a gameplay trailer of God of War Ragnarok. One player also claims that there probably is a big section of users who haven’t seen all the Wrath-exclusive moves available in the game, while another jokingly wonders why Kratos is so angry in the video. Overall, gamers appear impressed with the montage made by Much118, with specific mention of the excellent editing.
God of War Ragnarok is available now for PS4 and PS5.
