@@ashmit5u it's from GoW Ascension. "Warrior's Truth".
@@ashmit5u It's from God of War: Ascension. I think it's called Vengeful Sparta. One of the best soundtracks to exist ngl
Why the fuck hes Greek swords got runes on them without a dwarf
Seeing kratos get the blades and then immediately doing cyclone of chaos as his first move made my adrenaline go wild
Showtime!

Gaia: _As Kratos entered his home, memories of dread and sorrow filled his tarnished soul. What was once a cabin in the forest was now a thing he used to deny and hide his past. The sins and atrocities he committed were buried deep underneath the soil and wood of his new home. The Spartan rage and Greek passion once burned inside him was dulled by years of guilt and regret. His son, Atreus, his only hope for a brighter future was now in danger because of him. How could he be a father after all he's done? He was once a monster, and no amount of time could heal the wounds that scarred him. Physically and mentally. Opening the hatch, he saw his old Spartan tassel from underneath the floorboard. Slowly, he reached down and took it. What he was about to do went against everything he swore to abandon. Opening his old tassel, the Blades of Chaos glimmered in the rays of lightning that reached trough the cracks of his home. Hesitation was the only thing that came to him at that moment. But would it be stronger to resist it, or give into it, but use it for good? Feeling the blades, they were still sharp, yet time has made them dull for thousands of years. Soon, the horrible memories came back. The echoes of Kratos' past reminded how much blood those weapons spilled in their lifetime, his Spartan brothers, the people all around Greece, even his own wife and daughter. Forged from the foulest depths of Hades, their craving for battle never died. This was a feeling he was all too familiar with. The scars on his arms that still bled shivered out of fear. Would he be willing to hold them again? While he's grabbing the black chains, Kratos wrapped them around his arms. However, Athena appeared after the fall of Olympus and gave the fallen Spartan a warning..._
Athena: _There's nowhere you can hide, Spartan. Put as much distance between you and the truth as you want, it changes nothing. Pretend to be everything you are not: teacher, husband, father. But there is one unavoidable truth you will never escape: You cannot change. You will always be... a monster._
Gaia: _As Kratos puts his hands on the handles of the Blades, they awaken the Hellfire of Hades once more, and he gave Athena a response of his own._
Kratos: I know... But I am your monster no longer.
Gaia: _After stepping outside of his cabin, the Hel-Walkers appeared before Kratos. After years of suppressing his true feelings and anger had led up to this moment. Gripping the Blades of Chaos tightly until his knuckles turned white, he let out the loud shout of a Spartan, and began the slaughter... He hacked and slashed at everything near him. Monsters, trees, stone, it didn't matter. The rage had been too much. He was unleashing everything he had at everything around him. The ground on which he was standing on was shaking from his aggressive strikes. The earth trembled at the once forgotten rage of the Spartan. The sky striking thunder close to the river. He was angry at the Norse gods. He was angry at the monsters which attacked him. He was angry at himself for what he once was. With each swing and throw of the blades was enough to make the snow melt and turn black, dry the ground soil, and bleach the tree leaves white. The fire in Kratos' heart was back, and nothing was going to stop him. Gritting his teeth, he gripped the blades even tighter and swore on his own life, that he would save his only son... It was on this dark snowy day, that the Ghost of Sparta... is reborn..._

this is perfect
You did such a great job that youtube thinks this is the first god of war
Thank you)
Lol actually when i put in ascension music on that same scene it said god of war ascension xD
I Don't Understand
@@beastak2.081 the soundtrack is from the first game
@@nupersu6307 No I Meant, How CZcams Thinks It's The First God Of War Game ?
Dude synced the music with the fight so well, made use of every type of Blades attack, and made it look cinematic. It's just too good!
Thank you for noticing the effort ❤
Mimir: Alright, brother... let's see what those blades can do.
>proceeds to immediately do the Cyclone of Chaos attack while Warrior's Truth track goes on the background.
Absolutely epic and goosebumps.
Thank you, only it's "Warrior's Truth" playing
This is Warrior's Truth from GoW Ascension, which is basically a remaster of the same song from the OG GoW
They should definitely do something like this for Ragnarok. The goosebumps and the nostalgia surge I got from this was unreal.
A combination of Greece and Norse. Still tho. Games these days has Vocals that sound just like the Original God of War games. SEPHIROTH
Imagine him getting Hercules' gauntlets just because a local tradesman over there "found" it
As much as I love this moment, we shouldn't put a stigma into the devs heads, Cory Barlog had this problem when He was developing GoW 2. In this game the devs didn't have that stigma and now they literally have a scene that rivals the "ash scene" from the og GoW.
yes with the blade of olympus
"The End Begins" but in Norse would be PERFECT for Ragnarok when Atreus and the Jotnar storm Asgard
Definitely the best version of this scene on youtube with the classic music and aggressive blades gameplay. Love it.
Wow, thanks for the feedback
strongly agree
Brutal ☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️
I still love how, in all of these incredible scenes, Mimir is still hanging on to Kratos's back buckle listening in on pretty much everything (despite not being able to see much)
And always quiet when it needs, not ruining certain moments. He is the smartest man alive for a reason, he knows when to talk and when to be a silent listener.
I think this is how it should've went:
When Kratos takes the blades out and wears them, his old theme is playing. But when he says to Athena "But i'm your monster no longer", his new theme starts playing from there.
Implying that even though he has the blades back, he is still the new and reformed Kratos from throughout the game.
I really wish they would've done that. Having the GoW1 music play all the way through didn't feel right. It's saying "hey, old Kratos is back!". Anyone that's played the old games wouldn't really think that's a good thing. Old (young? lol) Kratos was a psycho douche.
Agreed, I think the best world would've been if first trilogy music went until 2:39, and after that the new soundtrack, thus proving his redemption
I forgot mimir was there when kratos said that lol
or maybe it was the notes of the old theme, but using the instruments of the new theme, and it had a more mournful, yet hopeful tone?
@@Happyfoam-lw3yt young kratos a psycho douche? what would you do if you were tricked in killing your family and the gods forcing you to relive that moment forever, he cant even kill himself they litterally force him to live with that forever.
love how he is wearing the ares armor, the very guy who cursed him with those blades
I just don't like the way this armor looks man. Really not a fan of it. And it sucks that they copy-pasted the Cod of War, Ares and Zeus Armours and just Made a different tint. Just Imagine if Ares' Armor was like in God of War 1 NG+, Zeus I have no idea honestly. Ascension ones didn't even make him look like Kratos so I don't want those. And for The Cod of War. Just c'mon. You can't have a Cod of War Armor and not have it look like a Costume. Yes I get the whole "You can have different sets" thing. But some of these Classic Armours should have a Full set and it stays that way. If you equip different armour they're Invisible. You only need one Piece of an Armor to get the big boy to show up. Sorry for the Complaint.
@@MariusBoss11458 same i wouldave liked if it was his GOW2 god armor and the zues armor has this model.
@@MariusBoss11458 lmao Cod of War

3:18 - DAMN THAT SYNCED SO WELL
2:44 - For some reason, I can't get over this scene. The beauty of the song beginning when Kratos whips out his blades and the slow motion just makes it so better
What song is that anyway? Forgive me, I'm not familiar with GOW's soundtrack that much
@@Hadfield15 The soundtrack's name is:
God of War: Ascension - The Warrior's Truth

@@Hadfield15 Warrior’s Truth - God of War Ascension
"But I am your monster no longer" sounded very much like T.C. Carson Kratos
Atheeeeeeeeeeeeenaaaaaaaaaa
In classic god of war fashion, the moment you get a new weapon, random enemies will spawn in the area just so you can test it out
When Kratos gets ballistic again in Ragnarok, we'll all be chanting:
_To telos arhizhi_
_To telos arhizhi_
_To telos arhizhi_
_To telos arhizhi torah!_
The End Begins...once again.
He didn't go ballistic :')
Leviathan Axe: “Sounds like your hands are all we’ve got against these Hel-Walkers, huh?”
Kratos: “No. There is… something else.”
Chaos Blades: *_”SHOWTIME!!!”_*
Blades Of Chaos: I'm his Original Fangs And Claws Of Brutality
Blades of chaos be like "Cowabunga it is!!!"
Oh man, this gave me MAD goosebumps. If this was actually in game I would've cried tears of pure joy, this was amazing.
Me too i suppose. I was sitting with my mouth opened first experiencing this scene. The only flaw i remember - feel of incomplete, not hearing familiar notes.
I really do think they should've used the old soundtrack but only for this one fight after getting the blades
Old theme with new Norse arrangement would've been sooo good
@@CoolSaver Know any good YT musicians who could do that?
@@smithwesson1896 no, never heard anything like this
@@smithwesson1896 actually yeah there is one big fanboy of gow he made 9 hour of gow story only vidio with old music filled all over it it's called gow movie he is a black guy so u could fine him easily be even used underrated old songs one you wouldn't remember quickly
Not only did this guy added the perfect music on beat but also equipped ares armor and the moves from previous games cyclone of chaos and tartarus rage💪😎
Yes, thank you for noticing.
Kratos' full comeback :)
What were the tracks you used for this. Specifically the one during combat.
@@foxtrotgaming1552 soundtrack used in the combat is the "warriors truth " which is an upgraded version of vengeful spartan used in gow ascension.
@@blackmask5335 thanks man.
At first i was expecting Athena to say
"You will always be...The Ghost of Sparta"
1:13 this part hits different though and I like it, Like Blood upon the snow, And fact that it’s fully upgraded now that’s an amazing scene
Absolut perfection.
I'm glad to see I wasn't the only one who wished this scene had a remix of "The End Begins." I'm even more glad to see someone bring that vision to life.
When I first knew that the blades of chaos would make a return in God of war, I expected the game developers to do something like this. So I got a little bit disappointed that they did not.
You did a mesmerizing job, from the editing to the effects and bgm... Splendid
Thank you, but i only added bgm, for all the editing and effects you should thank Santa Monica
@@CoolSaver It had been a while since the last time I watched gow (I don't own the equipment to play it so I just watched the gameplay 😅) so I don't recall the blades effect looking like that when you first play with them after that cinematic. Nonetheless you did a great job
@@nadew.02 thanks, i appreciate that
@@CoolSaver you're welcome ❤️
Oh fu**ck off kid, this is the worst way to introduce them. Its suppose to be an emotional moment.
2:40 I love this moment so much.
Mimir asks, and kratos shows it immediately.
it's impressive how music can change a scene so much and make you feel a different way. maybe in the greek games the result could change too, like when poseidon is killed and the seas rise, inserting a sad song making you feel the consecuenses of kratos 's actions and what is the real sacrifice to obtain his revenge
Absolutely, music is the most important tool to make you feel. Even the saddest scene can be ruined with wrong music, and you won't feel what the scene intended you to. And if this scene is supposed to be without music, putting the right one can enhance the feelings like ten times. Very powerful tool. At least for me, idk, maybe i just love music too much and therefore give it much more attention 😅
This is what we in the business call getting active.
I would've cried even more if that soundtrack played there, damm, the memories are coming back
2:44 🤌🏻
i like that with the cold frozen land of norse myhtology, kratos fiery rage still burns as in this seen we see him let out the rage and furry he had when facing the greek pantheon, hands down one of the best parts.
also like how kratos line of "im your monster no longer." feels like the bad ass lines before the posedion death
Reminds me of how freya clearly explains that helheim is a land of horrible coldness and no fire is capable of burning there. However kratos gets the blades and everything burns in your path including in helheim. Awesome
Freya: “Helheim is a land of unyielding cold, & no fi-“
Kratos: “Bitch, I have two fire daggers with chains from back home in Greece; I think we will be fine.”
Imagining experiencing this in theatre after lockdown. Crowd cheering when Kratos unleashes chaos on them.
I just realized Kratos is both Scorpion and Subzero. Right down to the ice axe
When Kratos has had enough of your shit.
Why Did CZcams Take That Long To Recommend This Masterpiece 😭

no mere sword and shield would befit the servant of the god of war
2:16 This raised my heart rate
mannnn that second finisher when he first leaves the cabin was timed perfectly with the bgm, this brought a tear to my eye, more developers need to do this. Nothing wrong with bringing back OG soundtracks especially for pinnacle moments like this, this made the scene 100 times better and i had chills the entire video great work man!
Thank you so much ❤️

@@sullymast4672 😉
Bear did it, he fuckin gave us the old music revamped for Valhalla. It’s beautiful.
It really is, i love it!
The way they did in the original game was pretty good... but this is golden. Its like a love letter to those that played the series, seeing Kratos once again become an instrument of pure destruction and rage.
Thank you for your kind words, it is also a love letter to all the composers who made an original soundtrack SO great and unforgettable. I hope i will do something more of this soon...

Doesn’t matter which era of Kratos you’re dealing with; that’s his boss music.
Remember staying home from school for 3 days to play this. Remember watching my dad play all the god of wars before too. CHILDHOOD game
Hey, nice to see an old fan. I was watching my older brother playing the very first GoW i think back in 2006 before i dare to play it myself (it looked too dark, too adult and even kinda scary for me, but that is what attracted me as well). I think it was my first "big and serious" game experience, or maybe somewhere near that.
You know if you build up the blades permafrost mechanic or whatever it’s called cuz I forgot, the runes stay lit on fire and give this cutscene a whole new look which I think is just beautiful
Wow, really? Gonna check it out the next playthrough, thanks.
@@CoolSaver did you ever?
@@khaelstorm2552 i will, eventually. I'm replaying GoW series from start to finish, like, once a year or two.
I think it's called Immolation.
You know what’s the epic part of this whole song?? The lyrics are “ Thanatos, to thei tos” which means “The death of the gods”❤️❤️💪💪💪
2:41 say what u want about ascension, but that remixed theme FUCKIN SLAPS!!!
Damn that moment when he draws out his blades in slow motion.... Damn that looks so cool 🎊🎊
And no montage used, praise to Santa Monica. This game looks so good just being itself.
Thor: "I'm not leaving until I see the real God of War"
Thor, buddy, you can't handle the real God of War.
It was my strong wish to see exactly this scene with the original soundtrack of gow 2, You nailed it. Love from India
Thank you ❤️
Bro i was so shocked when mimir spoke😂 like, he heard everything kratos said to the air
I love how Warrior’s Truth fits perfectly with the scene, especially the way it ends after Kratos has taken out all of the Hel walkers and the song doesn’t feel out of place in the Norse setting. I really wish it was used in the actual game
the sountrack change the whole scene , the old Kratos thirsty for vengeance
what a missed opportunity
The music is mixed very well with the original sounds heard from the game. The timing of amplification and the decrease of volume is top tier.
BEST SOUNDTRACK EVER, IN GAME HISTORY
You used Ascension's battle music! That's just what I had in mind.
Perfect
I get goosebumps when kratos swings the blades and they make that whirring noise as they cut through the air.
i actually can't get over how hard this is, just imagine this with a touch of norse style added into the music, it would've been SO GOOD
They REALLY should have made a Norse Remix of his Classic Theme. Look, his new theme is amazing but c'mon man. Give people some Nostalgia.
The first time I played this game. I had no idea what was happening. The sky turning dark, thunder and lightning. The animals turning away. When he equipped the blades. Something terrible is about to happen.
they seriously missed a huge oportunity with this scene by not using some old school God of War music, the music here fits so well
All fun and games until Baldir hears “Rage of Sparta”
Best sync up moments
2:41
3:11
3:34
4:29
And the last 2 kills
Whoa, i didn't even noticed some of them before 😅
If you liked it, you might as well watch my NG+ Sigrun fight, there are some good timings in the second half of the video
This is a goosebump inducing moment
[it was foretold that the storm of chaos and vengeance would return in a blaze of death and glory. he has been hiding from his true nature for too long, but he has returned. The God Of War has returned. all hail Kratos! the true God Of War!]
This brings tears of joy every single time i watch 😢✌️😊😊
Now THIS is how you resurrect the blades of chaos
It killed me that they didn’t play the classic theme for the Blades reveal when the came first came out but this makes me happy
One minor detail I wish this scene had is that,when kratos caresses the blade, I think it should cast orange cinder around, as his fingers slide through it.
Mimir: Alright brother let's see what those blades can do
Kratos after a second: *Goes back to god of war 3 version of him
I have goosebumps... nothing unusual when I hear the main theme and those lovely chains!!!
this vid was really well done man, thank you for uploading it
2:43 great timing
3:07 is when i saw a glimpse of young kratos back at greece giving every enemy the smoke
This part made me cry 😢 of happiness 😊 though that was the end of the Blades didn't expect this.
Kratos absolutely hates those weapons but all of the fans are screaming in joy 🤣
I've never clicked a like button this fast as soon as i hear the music on the battlefield. I really hope they make it that way.
I'm so confused what did he do? This just looks likes the normal game play w music ??
Old music
@@benjamin-swaine484 Yes.
I think it'd work better if they had the old theme playing in the background as he puts the chains on and Athena's talking to him, but when Kratos begins walking out it gets overpowered by his new theme
Not a bad idea actually. Like his inner calm and reasonable self is taming the beast. Maybe you should do this version of your own? :)
Dude the original theme when he stood 😭🤌🏾
First and foremost, beautifully done. It's now perfect.
Secondly, I've always found it incredible that Mimir NEVER comments on Athena's appearance here. Leaving it very ambiguous as to whether or not Athena ACTUALLY came back to haunt him, or if Kratos in all of his trauma, his pain, his regret, manifested her, and thus she's merely some figment of his own imagination. His mind reminding him, taunting him, as she would, (as Ares would as well) because of all of these feelings, the memories, and the hatred he feels toward those connected (including himself) towards those infamous blades.
"...but there is one unavoidable truth you will never escape. You cannot change. You will always be a monster."
So many discussion have been had about this scene, but I find it fascinating that she comments that he cannot escape his past, his guilt, his shame, HIMSELF.
And he has accepted it. He cannot run from it. He accepts it. All the pain he caused. The countless deaths. The massacres. The killing of his wife and child. The destruction of Greece. And the chaos he left to exact his revenge on an entire pantheon, his own family no less.
He accepts it.
It is essentially him saying. "I have tried to travel back in time. I have cheated death. I have destroyed my family, a pantheon, an even those undeserving. I accept I am a monster. But I WILL NOT BE THE MONSTER YOU MADE ME."
It is a proclamation. It is an assertion of identity. And his way of not simply becoming the thing he left behind, but reforging himself into a necessary being he can channel, using blades he swore to never use again because they represent nothing but suffering and death. They brought no good, and now, he finds that they may actually serve some good here.
So much in one brief scene. Kudos to Santa Monica Studios here.
This just makes me wish they brought out the horns and drums for when Kratos had ever slipped into his past ways. Aka, the Blades of Chaos, when he killed a few gods, and when he perhaps explained his past.
This fight in specific is canon
So glad you made this.
I didn’t notice what I was watching and when the music hit it gave me
Goosebumps
Damn, you probably was really tired, that you didn't even noticed
People who are complaining about music completely missed the point. This GOW music signified the bloodlust Kratos had while using the blades. His sole purpose while delivering each blow was to kill Zeus at the end and kill anyone who crossed his path.
However in this part he is using the blades out of grief and pain and for the cure of his son. This is love for Atreus and thus the music is supposed to be inspiring and not making players bloodthirsty for kills but rather empathy for kratos as he is about to lose the one last thing he loved.
Thank you for this comment, the old music is cool but just does not work with the context of this scene. It absolutely doesn’t fit the mood of him putting the blades back on. The more somber music they used in the game is much more fitting and gives me chills everytime. They curated this game perfectly in every detail, idk why people have to go “but the old music is better!!” You can have that opinion, but it absolutely is not better for this scene nor for really any part of this game. Maybe if they had done a norse remixed version of an old theme, but even then. The games about a new and reformed kratos, what you said about his reasoning for the blades is exactly right and why that old music doesn’t fit here
For those who played the fist and only three games before this the blade are a actual part of him and not just a burden because he wears that on his skin but with these blades you took back your freedom but not your sin so even though they would remind him of his past they should remind the gamers of our accomplishments. With them we gave back the world we destroyed hope and hope made true with no more godly intervention and that in my eyes deserve he hype. Yes he is putting on his chains but we are not because with them we can not be stopped and I want that to be hype
Thanks for saying this. I thought I was crazy when I read the comment section. The music doesn't suit the situation at all and inserting it is cheezy af.
It would fit more in the new game since kratos is holding back all the time ……
This is exactly how I wanted it to go the first time, not the normal Norse choir that's been playing through the whole damn game, you've earned a sub for this perfect video
That's the soundtrack I wanted to see in the official version of that scene!!! This video gives me goosebumps!!! 👌🏻🥵🔥
the slow mo into the cyclone of chaos with the music is too much for me to handle emotionally
Hahah, glad you enjoyed it this much :)
This is exactly how it should have been because the music sync when he got the blade was absolutely perfect and realistic if they had went for old music that's exactly how it would have been
Kratos return his Fangs and Claws not just to become A Monster again but a monster saving his sons life to the sickness
this means deep down that rage still burns even tho he killed zeus and moved on had a child. that pain from having his own familys blood on his hands still exists and there will always be a part of him that is the ghost of sparta. and any god who sees him and knows his past will expect to see that from him. making the fights more intense and more brutal
This was badass.....liked the sounding collaboration....
Well done.
Best CZcams video of all time
Thank you)
damn, it really awesome if whenever Kratos uses The Blade of Chaos, his old theme plays, the sky turn red and Athena starts taunting him.. basically whenever he uses The Blade Chaos, he become The Ghost of Sparta... this would provide a clear visualization of his internal conflict of who he was and who he is now.
This is indeed the right version thank you very much
Glad you feel this way, thanks for watching and commenting ❤️
I legit thought this was the original scene for a sec. Mad props bro
