A mod for Elden Ring will now let players unleash the wrath of the God of War upon their foes in the award-winning game. As if the fast action pace of Elden Ring isn’t enough fans of the game now have the opportunity to use a young version of Kratos to utterly demolish its bosses and other enemies. The mod not only swaps the skin using one from the God of War Ragnarök DLC, but includes his iconic Blades of Chaos along with a custom moveset, weapon skill, and more. As spotted by DSOG this mod is a must-have for fans of both games.
Per DSOG:
“Going into more details, the Blades of Chaos have two-handed and one-handed moves. Moreover, they have a new Weapon Skill for Kratos, called Spartan Slam. Additionally, the Blades have custom weapon sheathing properties on the back of the character, as shown in the God of War games. Not only that but the Blades of Chaos have custom attack and defense parameters and can be upgraded with Somber Smithing Stones. They will also scale with Strength, Dexterity, and Faith.”
Mod Description (per NexusMods):
- A playable Young Kratos skin. It’s used as chest armor with high stats, but fair enough to get you through the game to the end. You can take the Kratos skin off whenever you please to use other attire and armors.
- The Blades of Chaos come with a custom moveset; Two-handed, One-handed, Weapon Skill (Spartan Slam).
- The Blades have custom weapon sheathing properties on the back of the character, as shown in the God of War games.
- Kratos and his Blades can be purchased at the Twin Maidens, for those who have already started a game save.
- Kratos is listed as a class if you want to start a new game, it comes with edited stats, an origin description, and new icons.
- The Blades of Chaos has custom attack and defense parameters and can be upgraded with Somber Smithing Stones; scales with Strength, Dexterity, and Faith.
- Kratos and The Blades of Chaos have custom icons in the inventory, and also custom descriptions of the story of the character and weapon.
Meanwhile, rumors continue to circulate that God of War Ragnarök could be the next Playstation game to find its way to PC. If true, PC users could soon also gain access to the DLC used for this mod.

Join Discussion →I thought about getting this game a few times, but waiting on a sale of more than 10% off.
I admit I've been curious about it but not really into Souls-like type games but there are a ton of reviews giving praise to its story and world-building which is something I normally like. It's hard to say though if I ever will since between finishing HFW, wanting to get Ghost of Tsushima, and maybe digging into Alan Wake 2, plus the possibility of Ragnarok coming out in the coming months, and then also wanting to get into BG3, I doubt I'll have time to.
I never did understand the appeal of the Souls-like games. I know way too many people who love those kinds of games, and then the Internet is full of even more. I installed Elden Ring using a friend's shared Steam library, and big surprise, I couldn't get into it. Those games just aren't for me. It was also annoying having to mod the game just to get a framerate above 60fps, and to have proper Pause functionality like every f*cking single-player game SHOULD have. You know, a standard feature in games since at least 2nd-gen (and most definitely 3rd-gen).
