God of War Ragnarok - Ending & Odin Final Boss Fight + Secret Ending (4K 60FPS) 

My dad passed away this year. I remember playing all of the god of wars on the psvita with him, played this game for him and immediately bawled my eyes out with kratos. I wish my father was here to see the end of his story too. Thank you everyone for the kind words, it means so much to me❤️

Seeing them hug and Kratos crying at the panel of him depicted as a god that everyone loves had me absolutely wailing, one of the greatest endings I’ve seen in a long time

The "Loki will go, Atreus remains" had the same impact as iron giant. I love this story.

37:37 Throughout Kratos’s life people always saw him as a monster or a destroyer, but in the end people started to see him as the one thing Kratos never thought he’d be, a savior 🥹.

37:10 That scene of Kratos crying because he's finally loved and admired hits me. I truly believe him when he told Mimir "A path. One I had never imagined". All throughout his journey from his life in Greece to the Norse realms, he's known only violence, carnage, suffering, and betrayal. Even Odin once mocked him because Kratos never knew what it was like to be a god who is admired and loved. But now he is. What an epic way to end his story here.

Seeing Kratos hugging and telling Atreus goodbye and then being moved into tears becoming a beloved God brought me to tears. If this is truly the end of Kratos’ story, I have no complaints, because you couldn’t have a better ending than that

16:08 He just got too excited that he started to push all the buttons😂

Kratos crying while looking at his shrine is so heartwarming Its almost like a final message from Faye saying you did it, you're not a monster

37:12 This moment. This moment right here reflects something much deeper than Kratos becoming the All father. Look at his portrait closely. His skin is no longer pale like snow, but golden in color. They flow away from him and to the rest of the world. By the gods, Kratos' ashes are taken away from his skin once again. He collapses because everything that he has done can be redeemed, everything that was once in the past can now remain there. His wife, his daughter, his brother, Faye. His curse ends as he assumes his new role as savior and leader. The ashes of his old family now travel and now become one with the realms. The Ghost of Sparta will die. Kratos remains, a redeemed warrior who not only has a new purpose, but now can forgive himself. A masterpiece of a game, a masterpiece of a story.

I lived long enough to see Kratos smile and be at peace. I can die happy now.

I cried. Kept thinking of my kid the whole time. The thought of her growing up and leaving to her own path just made this ending unbelievably touching.

It’s just so amazing how they were able to show so much of Sindri’s grief in a short time frame. Especially the part where Kratos try’s to comfort him seeing as he know the best about what’s going through Sindris head, because at the end of it all he made it so he wouldn’t be able to see his brother after he dies see as he took his own brother afterlife. You can see it perfectly when he looks at Kratos, first anger, In his mind Kratos is “at fualt” just as much as Atreus. Surprise because Kratos looks ay him not with any anger or with his normal scowl but understanding. Then grief and sadness return with a little bit of acceptance

The smile on kratos’s face when he’s hugging Atreus is just heartwarming it brought me to tears. This was one amazing masterpiece of game.

From God of War to God of Peace. What a great character development

Kratos: Does it frighten you? Atreus: Yes Kratos: That is why you must do it Words to live by

"a hole, gets bigger the more you take away" holy shit what a way to end this storyline. Sindri already had a hole in his life from his brother's death and losing part of his soul and now Brok is completely gone and that hole in his life is only gotten bigger. Fucking genious writing.

All those years of torment, pain, nightmares of his deceased family. Kratos can finally rest in peace knowing the people he cares about are safe. He is free from his sufferings.

isn't it funny we saw a kratos as odin fan art with a spear about a year ago and that ended up being the ending?

38:51 - an almost direct parallel to Kratos looking over a ruined Greece at the end of GOW III and starting his journey towards an unsure future; scorned, abandoned and cursed by all... To now where he stares out towards a beautiful land with two trusted companions by his side and receives praise by all for his service, his future still unsure but he takes that in stride. 38:17 - Zeus says the same thing at the end of GOW 3 whilst looking at a ruined Olympus. W callback

The scene where he starts crying after looking at the murals just broke me. He has come so far, finally became a God that ppl can rely on and worship. This game is a masterpiece.

after 20 years of knowing this franchise, I would have never in my life would I ever think that I would get such a somber, bittersweet ending and for Kratos "a mad, broken god-slaying machine" to finally FINALLY find peace, become a new man and get a happy ending he desperately crave for so long. Holy Shit. This is truly something special. EDIT: OK, 17 years actually. Needed correction.

What a calm and reasonable man Kratos has become, proud of him. Edit: Kratos has been promoted to NPC lmao

Sindri coming out of nowhere and smashing the orb with Odin’s soul was unintentionally hilarious.

I love how Odin creates a new binding spell instantly after freya made it seem like such an impressive thing.

Christopher judge did a phenomenal job playing Kratos. The voice cracks, the pain, the hurt, the anger, and the overall emotion was enough to make me get goosebumps at times, and tear up in others. The music? No doubt they did a beautiful job with it. It got me teary eyed multiple times from excitement. Seeing Kratos cry? Reminds me of my own dad. A stoic man who rarely showed emotional pain. Seeing the scarce times of vulnerability in Kratos reminds me of the rare few times ive seen my own dad be vulnerable. I look forward to hearing the soundtrack for this game. Santa Monica studios…. Round of applause. You did a fantastic job.

odin is such an amazingly well written villain the fact that i felt bad for him and and even trusted him during atreus visit shows just how good of a manipulator he is

I see a lot of people point out that there is a hint of “sadness” in Odins voice when Huginn and Muninn are killed. I personally feel like it’s panic we hear in his voice. He’s panicking because he’s using everything he has at his disposal to win the fight and he’s losing.

15:06 Mimir: "Don't forget about me All-Fucker." Probably one of the best Mimir lines out there XD

57:15 "A hole." had me legitimately say "oh fuck off" aloud and cry harder. the way mimir said it left no doubt what he was referring to, and given what Sindri had said to Atreus beforehand -- "You take, and you take, until there's nothing left. Not even my family." -- the parallel between those is just *sobbing chef's kiss*

34:00 the moment that sums up the entire story In GOW 2018 at the beginning kratos told atreus "The path ahead is difficult. And you Atreus are clearly not ready" In GOWR kratos tells atreus "we survived today because of your choices. who to trust, who to call friend. My son you are ready"

I love how Freya is important in both games final bosses. This story is just as much her's as Kratos and Atreus 's

Odin: You turned them all against me! Kratos: You have done that yourself!

The biggest surprise for Kratos, 37:09. Man, just broke to tear.

The character development in this game was amazing. How it cultivated in the end with Kratos finally at peace while Atreus goes out to his own venture is one of the best endings to a story as you can get. I had doubts that this game would live up to the expectations on it being that the previous GOW was a masterpiece. This one did just that… I loved every second playing this game. Sad that I have finished it.

37:10 This is art, the heavenly music, the face of kratos in that moment, those expressions he makes when he realized, that all over that he's been through all the bloodshed and rage he passed now they worship him, and still Faye didn't say anything, maybe being his first devoted one in that world, believing in him, i'm not get used to get happy endings in the GOW saga, but this, this is how is happy endings are made. Best ending in a game EVER, period.

I like how they incorporated the hurdy gurdy at 54:00 ,its so touching and fits very well with the funeral of Brok,the orchestra including the hurdy gurdy can be considered one of the best musical pieces in the GOW franchise.

Seeing Krato's finally get to be the God that is loved and cherished and him holding back tears just hits me like a freight train

God I love how Krato's arc ends, he was able to learn the best of stoic virtues and found peace with himself and the world, absolute eudaimonia through wisdom

Played the original trilogy as a kid, and as an adult now having played through these two.. to see Kratos grow and mature while finally after all the pain and suffering and loss, he sees himself praised and loved. All he ever wanted and he got it while also raising a child who is off to do amazing and prophetical things at the same time in Calliope’s honor. The man who felt more hurt than any got the ending he deserved after a thousand years. Game of the year is absurd, this may be the greatest game to ever be created.

37:22 I guess not seeing Atreus at his side is what really hit him there... He will take ages to rebuild the realms and lead them to prosperity but Atreus will still be away on his mission... That's the most vulnerable I've ever seen him.

57:30 my god, that really was the final nail in the heart.

I really love how colorful everything is in the boss fights in this game. Especially this one because it really brings out the magic aspect of odins powers.

Watching Kratos and Atreas/Loki’s last interaction before he leaves makes me cry, man that’s why I want to be a dad, I fucking love the loving bond between good children and good parents

34:37 that moment is so emotional

The Title should be Dad of War. That ending was really heartfelt. Kratos is the father that some of us wished for but didn't have.

Love how deceptive and narcissistic Odin is, every word he says is poison and meant to deceive, a magnificent depiction of selfishness and evil. Excellent storytelling, love it.

The "Kratos worshipped" scene can be understood as a meta symbol for a franchise that is now popularised with its new story arc, and a developpers' work admired and respected all around the world. A masterpiece for years to come.

Never.. never in a million years.. would I believe we would see Kratos actually crying.. my god.. the feels right now. This ending just hits different. I mean the ending of the last game was a sucker punch but damn. If this doesn't win Game of the Year I will be surprised. It's truly between this and Elden Ring but considering most of the time open world games get shafted, with a couple exceptions, I think this will take it.

Masterpiece with a phenomenal character development, Kratos has come so far and honestly even tho it’s just a game, I feel happy for our boy kratos, he deserves this, after all the torment and pain and suffering, all the blood spill and the killings, losing people and taking lives, his own family, dying, losing another wife, all the pain and agony is finally over, he deserves this time of peace and laughter and love and family and to see our boy finally gets it before his death is so satisfying, I feel like ive grown side by side with kratos and it warms my heart

I feel like this game was for everyone with past/present Dad issues. Hahah. I needed this. Even as a 30 year old. What a phenomenal game.

oh my god seeing kratos and atreus hug and say their goodbye had me crying like a baby. Truly beautiful to see how much kratos has grown from vengeful. To scared and ashamed of their past. To maturing and accepting who they were and now creating a path for the better. Good god cory and SM studios, you guys made a masterpiece.

This is the first time kratos has gotten a truthfully happy ending .. the next god of war game is definitely not gonna end the same

The Ragnarok wasn't the end of thing. But rather, a new beginning. When the whole realm gone silent, a new birth came to take it's place amongs them. Two human survivors who hide underneath the world Tree would rebuild Midgard from the Chaos. Baldur who was dead would came back to life. Alongside him is Modi and Magni, the last Aesir. The Two Human would gave birth to the new life, and the cycle of Norse would continue.

I love this games dedication to portraying Odin like some kind of mob boss who is always angry.

The god of war is also the one who ends the war, very poetic.

I feared that this might be the last we see of Kratos, however this ending is so beautiful. Simply because, now Kratos is completely free, from the shackles of his past, the safety of his son, the prophecies of his death etc. Since he has only known violence and hatred and was seldom loved, he sees a future that he is worshipped, the very love Odin mocked Kratos of not having. Now he gets to become a better god, that aids and protects everyone, not because his goals align with theirs, but truly of the kindness of his own heart. Kratos now has a dream, a dream that I hope we get to see Kratos fulfill. He looks up to Tyr as he is a peaceful God of War and probably try to become a protector of peace rather than a bringer of war. As of right now, I believe we might see the Celtic and Western European fairy tales since they've been hinted so much with Mimir, he tells lots of stories of him being part of a forest, mentions the Kelpie that sends them to the Norns, who then identify him as Puck, one of King Oberon's servants, the King of the Fairies. Also, while going to the Norns, Sigrun states that Mimir has failed Titania, Oberon's wife, who apparently used her like Odin did with Freya. Honestly can't wait to see Kratos's story as it seems that his saga as better god has just begun.

Talking to everyone after the fight really tug the heart strings 😭

*33:51** Emotional masterpiece moment. Father and son.*

37:28 a perfect change to the leitmotif. He's finally got his peace

Seeing Kratos and atreus hug is one of the most powerful things I've seen in any video game, it also made me cry watching this. 2 men growing together, both have been through a lot, but in the end they are still father and son.

I literally cried when Atreus was hugging he’s own father and kratos smiled ❤😢

A sad but mature ending. Loved it. I really like how you can continue on to help rebuild/save what's left of the realms.

I like how Kratos asked Atreus "Does it frighten you?" when talking about responsibility, with Atreus replying "Yes". This is a callback to the previous game where Kratos asked a similar question after telling his son about himself being a leader who once led a great army in the past. Back then Atreus didn't know how to answer that question. It's great to see that Atreus has matured a lot and the character development in this game is so good.

13:45 i love the delivering of this line. Shows how Odin is really obsessed with the matter at hand. Nice job by Richard!

37:09 seeing this scene... after watching this franchise for so many years, it broke me into so many pieces of emotion and crying

“Loki will go. Artreus remains” I have been sobbing for a good hour!

This game has got to be one of the best and will go down in history for time to come.

I just finished this masterpiece on no mercy and this is one of the greatest game I’ve ever played in the last 22 years of gaming . Absolutely astonishing I loved every minute of it . I can’t wait for the sequel and hope kratos fight other gods in egypt .

34:24 aww man this is genuinely heartfelt

In the end, kratos opened the prophecy door on the wall and he saw he became the All father and everyone worshipping him At that moment he cried

What a final, it got me thinking of my father and how complicated the fatherhood can be, teaching moral values and principles to your son while he's learning life is one hell of a task, I would like to thank all the fathers out there doing the impossible to provide and educate their sons. and thank you dad I will never forget all what you did for me.

Towards the ending you can see, thanks to Atreus' trust with Thrud, that Kratos trusts Freya and Mimir, whereas I don't think he would have trusted her before because of Gaia in the previous games. It's really nice development.

Kratos really took "I am your monster no longer" very seriously

From BOI to Son ... 100/10 Character Development Kratos

Everything was perfect. *Emotional background soundtrack plays* It was just a pure masterpiece.

Loved this game so much. Was crying at all the moments people expect and that does not happen for me often. Magnificent story and seeing Kratos like that just made me wish I could know him

Glad Kratos ,atreus ,mimir and freya found happy endings of their own.Thanks for the gameplay ,buddy.🎮

The fact Odin didn't care how many of his fellow gods died and was still willing to work with Atreus shows that he doesn't really care about them at all and only cared about getting closer to seeing the truth. I like how it can be seen as him just being a good guy bc of his willingness to forgive, but in reality he doesn't need to forgive because he didn't care in the first place.

I truly loved the characters in this installment. Thor is just like Kratos with the only difference that He can't find a way out of his past and Odin, at their fight He sounded tired and just wants Kratos to end his suffering and Kratos just wants to help him. They could've been brothers.

Also after Thor 2 fight, when kratos gets through to Thor about odin, similar music plays when you get the blades of chaos in gow4. It shows to me at least that when kratos gets the blades, he’s coming back with his old self when having the moment. But after the fight, the music plays after he talks it out showing that he’s become a new man after all he’s been through. This was a little long but I just wanted to share this thought.

hearing kratos say "we don't need to do this" was shocking, but at the same time I was very happy, I remember when kratos solved everything based on deaths (necessary or not) but now it's trying to reason with someone I'm glad to see that change that he had

I like how freya becomes the new atreus following kratos around

A masterclass in story telling through the insane interactivity that is gaming. This is what gaming can be! That hug between Kratos and Atreus is all I needed. What a fucking fantastic ending and I hope we see more!!

36:50, that end part made me cry a bit. It remind me of that scene between Kratos and Odin. And this scene answered it. Odin-” do you even know what it means to be a god! To have people, someone worship you! Love you!” 36:50- “his wife did. Faye the just, did.”

I like how the ghost of sparta motif was mixed into Faye's theme. A pretty cool way to show musically how Kratos' past is no longer haunting him, but in a way that its not erased, its just repurposed. If you listen to the OST without playing the game, you'd get a good idea what the journey has done to Kratos, and that's the mark or a pretty good soundtrack.

the real happy + sad ending i have ever seen in game , this why i loved so much god of war . :') i want to cry see brok dies at the end :')

It’s crazy my friends introduce me to this game years ago and I played the heck out of each one of them and to be a full grown adult and playing and beating this today, I am happy I was able to journey on this franchise with kratos, the True God of War.

Thor literally just said "keep my wife's name out your damn mouth" 💀💀💀

shirako, as always fast than the other thanks for the hardwork

Love the reaction when KRATOS see himself as the "ALLFATHER". The thing which he had never imagined. Edit - Thank you so much for the likes. I haven't got this much of likes on my comment :' ) I am glad that ppl are liking my comment from all around the world.

37:12 Kratos saw himself as a destroyer at worst and a broken man at best. His reaction to seeing the last mural is beautiful and its the ending he deserves but never expected. Kratos, saviour of the realms, defender of the innocent, the god of peace.

The story telling is magnificent

Just love how Kratos asserts dominance on everyone else by just hitting a lat spread bodybuilder pose. Even Thor put Mjolnir down when he started lat spreading even wider 🤣🤣🤣

My Father and I haven't been on talking for the last few years unfortunately. Playing through this story and seeing a father and son bond like this had me in tears. Perfect writing. To anyone out there with the same issues put your pride away and do what's right

Fighting regular enemies seems harder then fighting the actual bosses

Damn Thor is all tired and can barely stand up and Kratos was holding back cause their kids are friends

IT WILL BE AMAZING A DLC OF THIS MASTERPIECE WITH ATREUS HELPING SINDRI

Ryan hurst is such an amazing actor he can display so many emotions

Gotta appreciate the hint hint here. I’d like to believe we are the people who love and adore Kratos. In that sense, the prophecy is absolutely true.

3:32 - Anybody else get Will Smith vibes from that?
