Best Boss Fights of 2018
1. Baldur (God of War)
The God of War series has always been known for bombastic opening acts, and the most recent entry in the series was by no means a departure from this trend.
After players guide Kratos and his son Atreus through a battle with a troll, things seem to settle down until a stranger comes to Kratos’ doorstep claiming to know about his past.
Kratos tries his best to remain calm, but before long, his insults cut deep enough to draw Kratos into a fight; and then, all hell breaks loose.
At a break-neck pace, players must exchange blows with the stranger. Each punch sends its targets hurtling through the surrounding forest, each kick splitting boulders and rending the landscape.
It’s a bare-knuckle brawl that is equal parts right at home with past entries and something entirely original. Most any player could tell that whatever came next, it was sure to be one wild ride.
