When\u00a0God of War<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0(2018) was first announced, many players were excited by the news of Kratos’ return, and that the game was exploring Norse Mythology. This meant there would be new enemies for Kratos to face, as well as new and creative boss fights in God of War<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

There are many reasons players enjoy 2018’s God of War<\/em><\/a>, and at the top of the list are the gameplay and enemies they can fight. Chief among the new enemies were the Valkyries, some of the best and most challenging\u00a0bosses in the game.\u00a0Recently, Respawn Entertainment Design Director Jason de Heras, Lead Combat Designer\u00a0for\u00a0Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order<\/em>, provided a breakdown of how the Valkyries operate in the game.<\/p>\n

According to de Heras, the core element behind how the\u00a0<\/em>Valkyries are such challenging\u00a0bosses is their combat combinations. Specifically, the Valkyries alter their various attack roles to force players to relearn familiar gameplay mechanics during the boss fights, which shows\u00a0the potential for boss fights in God of War’s <\/em>sequel<\/a>. In his tweet, de Heras uses\u00a0three Valkyries as his examples: Gunnr, Kara, and Geirdriful.<\/p>\n
