BALDUR (GOD OF WAR 2018)
Not having enough boss fights is one of God of War 2018’s few failings- but the few that it does have are amazing. The game is bookended by encounters against Baldur, and while both are great in their own right, the final fight deserves special praise. Not only is it a cinematic spectacle, it also combines that spectacle with mechanical strength, and – above all – excellent narrative payoff.
