God of War: Ghost of Sparta is a third-person action adventure game for the Playstation Portable. Developed by Ready At Dawn Studios and published by SCE, Ghost of Sparta was released on November 2, 2010.

God of War: Ghost of Sparta is the fifth game on a Sony platform to star the growling mortal-turned-god, Kratos, the second on the PlayStation Portable. Released more than two years after its pocket-sized predecessor, it fills a narrative gap by sending Kratos through Atlantis and beyond to solve the mystery of his lost brother.

The events God of War: Ghost of Sparta takes place shortly after the events of God of War and prior to God of War 2 on the PS2. Kratos, after slaying Ares, is now the new God of War, is haunted by visions of a woman and other memories of the past. So he set out on his quest to change these visions. This eventually leads Kratos to finding his mother, and learning about his captured brother. Kratos sets out on his quest to free his brother, leading him from the city of Atlantis to the Realm of Death.

The gameplay of God of War: Ghost of Sparta is very similar to that of the games in the series prior to it, featuring Kratos' Blades of Athena as the main weapon, along with a shield and spear, as well as several magic abilities. Chests located throughout the game gives Kratos boosts in Green, Blue, Red orbs, as well as other magical items.

3. Grapple at the end of the path and climb onto the wall, move down and jump in the opposite direction for two Red Chests and a Special Chest. Jump back and follow the hall down and you will be faced with the giant with lightning orb again, along with a few axe throwers.
4. Finish the enemies and move into the open path, where sentries will attack you. Defeat them and climb up the wall straight ahead. Grab the chest here and save your game.

1. Jump into the water and swim until the end of that hall, break the fence containing the Red Chest. After, swim directly up and ignore the first level for now, but instead, swim all the way up to the surface where a Special Chest and Red Chest are located.
2. Now dive back down and quickly switch the two levers as fast as you can, since there's a time limit before the gate closes on you. Once the gates are opened, you will have to dash with R to swim through the current. Once you're past the midpoint of the current, grapple onto the ledge and then press R to dash all the way through.
3. Swim dash and break through the next gate and swim upwards to the surface. Head to the end of the path and grapple onto the platform, turn the lever.
4. Enemies will appear from the opposite walls and on the platform, so use your spears to throw at the long ranged enemies and finish off the sentries on the platform. After all the enemies are cleared, a path will appear and go across for Blue and Green chests.

1. Go up the stairs and turn right instead of going forward, as there's nothing to do right now at the Nexus. Instead, turn right immediately and follow along the long path until you reach a cutscene, and then a Save Point. Save and continue down the path.
2. At the end of the path, you will get attacked by a wave of sentries, defeat these guys and start hacking away at the columns to your left. After they've been broken down, climb up the newly revealed wall to the other side of the cliff.
3. Jump over via the grapple point and get the Red Chest. Now take out the sentries and Gorgons in the arena. Climb the next wall to obtain the Green, Blue Chest, also a Save Point.
4. Open the door and run through the hall until you reach another circular arena, here, more axe throwers and a mechanical titan will attack you. Defeat the titan to obtain a gear for unlocking the Nexus.
5. Proceed to the end of the next hallway and grab the 3 chests once you're outside. Place the gear on the switch and back track all the way to the big statues.
6. When you reach the area where you fought the mechanical titan, you will have to fight a few waves of Gorgons and Minotaurs. Keep moving back and go through the door where you came in from
7. Save at the next Save Point and grapple over the wall to the other side, where a Red Chest is waiting for you. Climb up the next wall and ceiling climb your way down to a cutscene with Laneus, who will block your path by closing a gate on you.
8. Detour your way around by ceiling climbing to the left side, take out the crawlers on your way. Once you're down on the ground, switch to your spear and throw a few at Laneus, who will fall and die thus releasing the gate.
9. Go back to the path before and grab the gear from the titan. Jump over the water and open the Green and Blue Chests.
10. At the end of the path, lift the door and cross the bridge, midway through you will be attacked by axe throwers and sentries, defeat them and turn on the Nexus' power at the end of the bridge.
11. Head back and over the new bridge. Jump into the water and collect the two Red Chests. Swim through the corridor until you reach two walls that are closing. Time your swim dash and move through these walls before they crush you. Grapple onto the ledge and pull yourself in before the walls close.
12. When you arrive at the next current, grapple onto the grapple point before it pushes you into the next set of closing walls, and dash through. Keep swimming until you reach a wall, break it and grab the Red Chest.
13. Swim up to the surface in this next room, and take out the sentries and axe throwers just up ahead before grabbing the chests. Go upstairs and drop down and you will be at where we started from. Fend off the harpies and lightning titans that will attack you, and go upstairs.
14. Activate the power to the statues, which will rise up a grand bridge. Cross the bridge and save your game.

1. Climb up from the Save Point and activate the gates to Domain of Death. Enter and pick up the Bonds of Ares just south of the Save Point after going into the portal. Open up the Green and Blue Chests straight ahead and use your spear to break down the cages to reveal a grapple point.
2. Grapple over and fight the waves of Satyrs and Minotaurs and go down from the right side. Use your fire blades to burn down the plants that are blocking your path. Continue and jump over the gap before climbing up the ledge, where a few birds will be waiting for you.
3. Defeat the enemies and grab the Red and Blue/Green Chests, and jump up to the path at the middle. Clear the plants and eagles and burn down the big root that's also blocking your way. Grapple over to the other side and climb up the wall.
4. Climb along the walls until you reach an opening where you will have to fight some Wraiths and eagles. Defeat them and move the statue to the right, revealing a Special chest. Now move the block on the left all the way to the left side, and use it to jump up to the next ledge, collecting a Green Chest. Save at the Save Point and continue to the Hall of Damnation.

1. Go forward and climb up the ledge and turn right to a room with dogs, defeat them and collect the Green and the Blue Chests in the same room. Head upstairs and be prepared for a tough fight. You will need to fight waves of dual bladed soldiers and 3 armored Cyclopes. Head upstairs into the gate.

1. Go upstairs and open up the chests and save at the Save Point. Head into the next halls and turn left to a balcony where you can find a Special Chest, now go back to the stone block you passed by, and push it to the right, where you can use it to reach a hanging chain.
2. Jump up to the chain and climb your way to the other side, drop down for the Red Chest. Climb back up onto the chain and move to the middle, where a giant platform is moving. When the platform moves closest to you, jump towards it and climb on the ledge, move to the left side and jump over to the left when the platform moves closest to the ledge.
3. Open the fire door and head inside, where a Save Point, and recovery chests awaits. Right in front, a giant block of stone is moving at a rapid speed back and forth, you need to time your run right as the stone leaves the path, and immediately turn into the right side room when you can. Follow the path and you will reach a room with running gears. Destroy these gears using your fire blades and the soldiers too. By destroying the gears, you will stop the stone block from moving back and forth, so go back to that hallway and push that giant stone block all the way back, picking up chests on the way.
4. Turn left and lift the door to head into the next room, use your spear to break the cage and follow a series of grapples and jumps around the grapple points, follow the QTEs and move to the next area.
5. The next fight could be one of the most annoying and therefore hardest fight in the game, so be careful, because you need to go up against waves of wraiths and a few armored Cyclopes. You may need to do this a couple of times to succeed. After you're done, go down the long hallway to your left and defeat the skeletal soldiers, and grab the chests. Next, turn the lever to the right to open a gate back at where you fought the wraiths, which unlocks two Red Chests.
6. Head back to the lever area and lift open the door, heading down the hall you will be instructed to use your shield to block the fire that's coming from the opposite furnace, which also happens to be where our destination is. You will need to block the fire to get to the lever, and once you do so, throw the spears at the gears on the sides of the furnace, to close the gate. Use this chance to turn the platform with the lever, but you will only have time for a quarter turn, as the gate will open up again, repeat the process until you've gotten the two chests on each sides and enter the furnace, which you will jump over and head down the path.
7. In the next hall, go straight ahead for a Red Chest, and then turn left and run up the stairs until you reach two recovery chests and a Save Point. Now head up stairs for the next Boss battle.

1. Use your fire blades to destroy the roots that are holding onto Deimos, and then use your spear to shoot off his chains.
2. BOSS: Deimos - Deimos fights much like Kratos does, so the fight is fairly easy, since he doesn't rely on any tricks. When he punches you, counter it to do some serious damage back at home, and when he pins you down, pin him down in reverse by doing the onscreen commands. Use your fire whenever you can to take off some of his armor.
3. After doing some damage, Deimos will pin Kratos down again, and this time bringing you down with him to the level below, where a cutscene will play. Follow Thanatos down to Suicide Bluffs.

1. Here, climb the walls and break the rocks until you can reach Deimos. Save him and follow him through the path, collecting the chests on your way until you reach Thanatos.
2. BOSS: Thanatos - In this final fight, you have the aid of Deimos, who can throw spears by pressing down the Down key on the d-pad. First part of this fight is fairly easy, as Thanatos only charges and slices his sword between Kratos and Deimos, deflect his attacks accordingly. When Thanatos grows wings and flies off to the side, command Deimos to throw a spear at him, so he doesn't stun you when he flies down. When Thanatos grabs Deimos, help him and Thanatos should transform into his second form.
3. In the second stage, Thanatos becomes a giant demon that shoots void orbs at you or Deimos. Stand in front of Deimos and guard him by deflecting the orbs back at Thanatos. Thanatos will stagger and leave his arm open for attack. Use your fire blade to get in as many hits as possible on the arm. Move back as he recovers from the attack. Do this a couple of times and he will go back to humanoid form.
4. The third stage of this fight will be similar to the first, except Thanatos is more aggressive, so always use Deimos' spear whenever you can, so you can land in a few more combos on Thanatos. When enough damage has been made, he will transform into the demon form again.
5. In the fourth stage of the fight, demon Thanatos will sometimes shoot two consecutive orbs at you at the same time, or one at Deimos and one at you, so pay attention and deflect these back at him. Attack his now exposed arm until the next cutscene triggers.
6. After the cutscene, the last stage of the fight commences, and now you won't even get staggered from Thanatos' attacks, so just focus on dodging his shockwaves and keep attacking him until a quick time even triggers . Walk up to the half-dead god of death and press Circle to finish him off. After the battle, follow the stairs up and congratulations, you've completed God of War: Ghost of Sparta.
