God of War: The Board Game 2026

God of War: The Board Game is a co-operative dungeon crawler filled with epic fights and puzzles for players who will encounter various iconic monsters in the form of highly detailed miniatures. The game also features a unique combat and leveling system based on the bonding of characters and co-operation. Take on the role of Kratos and Atreus, and follow a series of adventures that imagine scenarios during the years between the 2018 God of War video game and 2022's God of War: Ragnarök when Fimbulwinter descends on Midgard.

To play God of War, players must first choose a Scenario and follow any setup instructions and exceptions described. The game is played through a series of Rounds. Each round is separated into 2 Game Phases, starting with the Hero Phase and followed by the Enemy Phase. Once both phases are complete, a new Round begins.

To win any Scenario, unless otherwise specified, players will need to complete the Scenario Objective and kill the Boss. To complete the Scenario Objective, players will have to complete the Scenario Quest Tokens for each Scenario that are placed during the setup or have specified rules for it on the special rules of each Scenario (see Scenario book).

The game is lost if either Hero has its life reduced to 0 or if the Tracker Cube reaches the end of the Menace Track.
