This guy gets how character themes should be done. When a character shows up in a scene, their theme should always accompany them whether if it’s dramatic or subtle. It’s what makes them more memorable. Examples like John Williams’ superman theme is a perfect example.
lionelep1 this concept of theme songs for characters, objects and etc, actually met it's premise through the era of classical music, thanks to the piece of classical music the Ring of Nibelungen for example, with specific musical tones that are associated with the entries of Siegfried, or the evocation of the ring.
@@megapulsar9244 He also composed for Black Sails, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Da Vinci's Demons, the official fanfare for final NASA shuttle launch. The guys is a genius and is definitely up there as one of the best composers in the business.
It truly does feel fitting for this older, wiser, and more self controlled Kratos, his rage is within his control rather than it controlling him and that makes him more powerful and dangerous than he’s ever been.
ultra instinct you have to try a game before give it a mark ;). Don't mind me, gow is my favourite game but don't give the game already a score (sorry for bad english)
I've never had a playstation, but i've seen all the gameplay for this game. Being a single father myself, I love this without being able to even play the game. But this song is almost played everyday in my household.
Fernando Ariel Leon Alejandre yes we will do. So many good games this year. Spiderman, gow and red dead are all goty contenders. And then other games which are also great like far cry 5 and ni no kuni 2.
Matthew Aq far cry 5 and no no kuni will not be GOTY. It would be GoW, Spider-Man, or RD2. So far GoW is goty but until those 2 other games come out we will have to see how good they are.
This score is just so perfect. It's amazing how music can describe a character. Like take it this way : You know that Kratos is big guy, fierce, violent, that killed all the Olympians. You don't know after all this years where did he go, and when we see him after all this years, those 3 notes hits and you are like "wow man, that's freakin Kratos, the killers of gods". Man, it's amazing.
Watching artists work on such interactive projects and realizing just how much attention, care and passion goes into their work makes me love the gaming industry much more! I will be playing the game this Christmas, can't wait! Shoutout to all the passionate gamers in PS family! :)
i LOVED the music in this game ive heard every note i noticed every single thing i loved the game by far its my favorite. (AND YES i did cry when it ended.)
Everything in the Game is amazing even the music. I remember the scene with the 3 notes and I totally got the chills because how the song made me feel. 10 out of 10
We've gotten so accustomed to the tone-rich, yet shallow compositions from certain other composers who shall go unnamed, it's immensely refreshing to hear music that can make the most of "three notes"... and continue building.
This guy just started a main theme for this character, like how Ezio’s family theme became the ost for the AC Franchise, or Morrowinds theme for the ES series
This game is truly a masterpiece. Literally every facet of the the game was executed to such perfection that it is one of if not my favorite game of all time. Fantastic work.
GOD knows how much i have faced to just play this game, all those hard times i had to face. But this got me pumped up like nothing else ,no mf can stop me from playing this game when it releases on the 20th. I know it isn't a big deal for any of u guys but trust me when i say this I have to face a lot to be able to play this.
The valkeryie theme alone deserves some type of award but this whole soundtrack is insane. I can listen to it all on repeat but my favorites are stone mason, the dragon, magni and modi, and the healing. This guy is brilliant!
@PlayStation Well the music in all of the God of War games have been epic. Now with that said, is there any hope for a PS4 remaster collection consisting of: - God of War - God of War II - God of War III - God of War Ascension - God of War Chains of Olympus - God of War Ghost of Sparta I think it would be great; especially if 1, 2, Chains, and Ghost were remade using the graphics engine of 3 and Ascension sort of like what we got with Crash N Sane Trilogy, Spyro Reignited, and Shadow of the Colossus (PS4). Even if they were to take existing PS3 remasters of 1, 2, Chains, and Ghost and updated the graphics (not necessarily a full overhaul even though that would be ideal), I think fans would appreciate being able to play the original 6 on the PS4. Yes. I know that 3 is on PS4 already but that and Ascension could use a 4K update.
This is how soundtracks should be. This isn’t a Spotify playlist that producers want to put into a movie because they are popular songs. This is music done right. Music that captures the essence of the themes and emotions presented in the visuals.
The final score when Kratos discovers the last mural at the end of the game is so considerately written for fathers letting go of theirs sons, I tear up every time I watch it.
You can say whatever you want about Sony but their developers really put 100% effort to their games, i mean facial/body motion capture with actual actors, perfect voice actors, using a orchestra for the Music, and not to mention the Story, Gameplay and the Details from big to small Details of their Games. You can also tell that Corey Barlog really worked with heart on this Game. Props to Sony and Santa Monica Studios.
He low-key wrote the most badass theme ever.
No, this is Kratos’s theme, not Loki’s.

I mean, it's Bear McCreary after all.
Random Things I found out a while ago he also composed for The Walking Dead.
@@megapulsar9244 He also composed for Black Sails, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Da Vinci's Demons, the official fanfare for final NASA shuttle launch. The guys is a genius and is definitely up there as one of the best composers in the business.
Random Things Agreed. Also, for NASA? Really?
You know a game is awesome when the composer's name is Bear
Yep
UA-cam ehhhh no he wasn’t
Fr. He’s amazing.
UA-cam what’s wrong bud
UA-cam stfu
The OST for God Of War is very addictive. Thank god they hired Bear to compose the soundtrack for this game.
Dobby PlayStation Agreed
Wait the guys name is Bear?
Randy Joella Yes. Did you read the title?
Dobby PlayStation where can i get the OST
Kenneth Kibisu Spotify
It truly does feel fitting for this older, wiser, and more self controlled Kratos, his rage is within his control rather than it controlling him and that makes him more powerful and dangerous than he’s ever been.
i haven't waited for a game in years ... nor horizon or even my beloved uncharted 4 .... but this one. God of war is part of some of us.
Daniel Son honestly huh, 😊
the last of us 2
me to but totally worth the wait
i can't agree more
How didn't this masterpiece of a soundtrack win best music it's magnificent
rdr2 also had a phenomenal soundtrack.
I have never heard “I am hungry.” sounding so epic. Hats off to this guy
Lol i know right.
"Im hungry"
bahm Bahm BAHM!!!
He BETTER be doing the score for Ragnarok too, his OST was phenomenal.
He is composing the soundtrack for Ragnarök. Bear and Santa Monica Studio confirmed it on Twitter when the reveal trailer came out.
and he did it bruhvvv its another masterpiece!!!!
He knocked it out of the park again
I love how passionate he is about the music he made. I just love how everyone is so passionate about God of war. I can't wait till the 20th!!!!
This man is a great musician who understands the concept of less sometimes being more. And he is really lucky for having the best job of all time!
Only 5 more days we got this so freaking excited
jay 99 *5
Dobby PlayStation *4
Liam Cheatle The days not over, unless you live in Australia.
jay 99 But what you will do if you did not have a money
The King I already paid off my pre order but if I did not then I'll guess I have to wait till the price goes down
For me the soundtracks of all god of war is amazing, a masterpiece!
love it
1:15 having goosebumps like hell...😍
GOD OF GAMES !!!
Age, wisdom, power and masculinity... All that captured in three simple notes.
This guy is a freakin GENIUS!
GOTY 10/10 MASTERPIECE 👌👏
ultra instinct I agree but don't forget Marvel's Spider-Man.
linus blanchard yeah but do u think marvel spiderman gonna beat GOW?
marvel fanboy hahahha...
ultra instinct you have to try a game before give it a mark ;). Don't mind me, gow is my favourite game but don't give the game already a score (sorry for bad english)
linus blanchard I'm pretty sure spiderman is gonna be a 90+ score.
Like your score for Da Vinci's Demons
That score is genius. You can play the main theme backwards and it sounds the same. it's a reference to Da Vinci's ability to write backwards.

Yes, me I'll pre-order 1 week before, kkkkkkk
I can’t wait i am very exciting 🔥🔥🔥❤️
this game could be game of the year the music the graphics the animations and the voice actors just wow!!!
Composers really are masterminds. These people are built differently.
Bear McReary and Ludwig Goransson are my two favourite composers from the new generation
For me and for almost anybody
The GOTY 2018
Fernando Ariel Leon Alejandre probably redemption 2 takes its place.
Matthew Aq we won’t know till or if it happens we’ll find out on October
Fernando Ariel Leon Alejandre yes we will do. So many good games this year. Spiderman, gow and red dead are all goty contenders. And then other games which are also great like far cry 5 and ni no kuni 2.

Jedi master jedi for gods :^)
You mean... The people who own a PlayStation... Those GODS
Ezau Wassenberg yeah >:(
bladimir787 I mean... I totally agree... people who own a PlayStation are gods... so this game is for the gods... ;)
This score is just so perfect. It's amazing how music can describe a character. Like take it this way : You know that Kratos is big guy, fierce, violent, that killed all the Olympians. You don't know after all this years where did he go, and when we see him after all this years, those 3 notes hits and you are like "wow man, that's freakin Kratos, the killers of gods". Man, it's amazing.
The score, from all what I’ve heard, I can say without a doubt, is a masterpiece
Bear is amazing. His soundtrack for TWD is amazing and I'm sure his GOW soundtrack will be amazing too.
Simply AMAZING to see Bear's passion.
OUTSTANDING
All hall of Gods need Bear McCreary's Music!!!
Bear McCreary it's legit, my favourite compositor
MASTERPIECE COMING! :)
Who else is hyped for God of War?
Παναγια me

it's 2020 now and song still gives me goosebumps
2023 and still gives me chills
I need him to be the composer of ragnarok
That "i am hungry" will not get old
He maintains his body even at this age.i appreciate u Kratos
Everything in the Game is amazing even the music. I remember the scene with the 3 notes and I totally got the chills because how the song made me feel. 10 out of 10
We've gotten so accustomed to the tone-rich, yet shallow compositions from certain other composers who shall go unnamed, it's immensely refreshing to hear music that can make the most of "three notes"... and continue building.
The way composers explain how they develop the music is just so inspiring and brilliant.
Absolute masterpiece. Thank you Cory and everyone else who made this amazing game possible
So freaking excited!
Only a man named “Bear” could compose a song so empowering.
GAMES CAN BE ART.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR WORK BEAR.
Best music in god of war
I love you Sony ❤️
Ahmad gaming yeah the 19th at midnight
This guys knows how to leitmotif. He is IMHO one of the best OST composer, ever since BSG I've been following him.
This guy just started a main theme for this character, like how Ezio’s family theme became the ost for the AC Franchise, or Morrowinds theme for the ES series
Thanks Mr McCreary for gave us such a beautiful soundtrack... in the game (and outside of it) is perfect!
This game is truly a masterpiece. Literally every facet of the the game was executed to such perfection that it is one of if not my favorite game of all time. Fantastic work.
Masterpiece
Reminds me of a part of Zod’s theme from Man of Steel
6th year of me commenting again to remind yall that this is very cold ost to ever exist
His music on Battlestar Galactica is so amazing, I can't wait to here this games soundtrack. I pretty the soundtrack will be a masterpiece
God of war has the best scorez in video games
This guy absolutely nailed it. One of the best gaming themes songs I could ever heard.
preordered the digital deluxe edition. gonna preload at 18/4, gonna play at midnight of 20/4 :D
Who s ready for GOW sequel?... The soundtrack is unbelievable
On 4/20 this game is going to get high.... reviews
Javier Bustacara Ruiz it's already been met with 10's
I think you mean sales. The reviews are already high af.
Good joke tho
420000000 ahhahahah
Hitler's birthday...
This game will surpassed Breath Of The Wild.
GOD knows how much i have faced to just play this game,
all those hard times i had to face.
But this got me pumped up like nothing else ,no mf can stop me from playing this game when it releases on the 20th.
I know it isn't a big deal for any of u guys but trust me when i say this I have to face a lot to be able to play this.
This Music from the God himself ^_^
I hope not...don't wan't this guy to die in the next game.
Beckers Lionel i hope so huhu 😢😢
If Bear wasn’t already a legend in the video game industry... he is now.
I love god of war
The absolute best and most thematic soundtrack I’ve ever heard for a game. I hope he stays with the franchise!
GOD = GOTY 2018
Theres only 1 god mame
I'm from the future and it is GOTY
im from the future and gow ragnarok will be goty
People that are passionate like this about what they do for the game always make the game as great as it can be
10/10 I been waiting for this game to happen give it and you got!
The valkeryie theme alone deserves some type of award but this whole soundtrack is insane. I can listen to it all on repeat but my favorites are stone mason, the dragon, magni and modi, and the healing. This guy is brilliant!
I hope that we get some alternate costume (most likely after beating the game) of classic Kratos. The OG Ghost of Sparta!
Jason Lu They moved on from the old games. Give up.
I hope so
Dobby PlayStation Why would they forget where they come from?
Jason Lu Did you watch interviews of Cory Barlog? He clearly mentioned that you will not wear old armour from the old games.
Jason Lu I hope we could get at least Armored kratos Skin
Single greatest score I’ve ever heard
@PlayStation
Well the music in all of the God of War games have been epic.
Now with that said, is there any hope for a PS4 remaster collection consisting of:
- God of War
- God of War II
- God of War III
- God of War Ascension
- God of War Chains of Olympus
- God of War Ghost of Sparta
I think it would be great; especially if 1, 2, Chains, and Ghost were remade using the graphics engine of 3 and Ascension sort of like what we got with Crash N Sane Trilogy, Spyro Reignited, and Shadow of the Colossus (PS4).
Even if they were to take existing PS3 remasters of 1, 2, Chains, and Ghost and updated the graphics (not necessarily a full overhaul even though that would be ideal), I think fans would appreciate being able to play the original 6 on the PS4.
Yes. I know that 3 is on PS4 already but that and Ascension could use a 4K update.
xxnike629xx The most you we can get is 1 and 2 remasters, and in ps5, we dont need to remaster 3 and ascension, and who cares about the other 2?
The best composer of the best game in universe 🔥😍
Who is giving this video dislikes YOU KRAZY

I paid for the game already can i have it now ???? Lol
You got to wait like the rest of us😂
Courage Ekhaguere I Know 😭
Can't wait for ragnarok now
It fit perfectly in the theme of Kratos & Atreus also the game too thank you :-)
He looks like TYR
You can say whatever you want about Sony but their developers really put 100% effort to their games, i mean facial/body motion capture with actual actors, perfect voice actors, using a orchestra for the Music, and not to mention the Story, Gameplay and the Details from big to small Details of their Games. You can also tell that Corey Barlog really worked with heart on this Game. Props to Sony and Santa Monica Studios.
