Want to know the full boss order of God of War Ragnarok? Unlike its predecessor, GoW Ragnarok features a longer playthrough with more difficult bosses and Norse gods. While Kratos and Atreus are fighting powerful gods like Thor, Odin or Heimdall, you need orders to fight them. If you want to ignore the Favor side quests and continue them later, you can complete the game early by defeating the story bosses. So, check out the guide below for the full order of the bosses.
Disclaimer: There are several spoilers that reveal the names of bosses, quests and worlds. If you want to avoid those spoilers, now is your best chance to come back and check back later.
