A look at how toweringly tall the biggest and the meanest gods are in God of War: Ragnarok.

The sequel to PlayStation 4’s God of War, God of War: Ragnarok, dives deeper into the world of Norse mythology. It explores more of the lore and stories from the Nordic tales of the old. Likewise, it also introduces more characters, especially Norse Gods, in the game.

The strongest and the most influential figures and gods of Norse mythology are finally introduced in the game, and as we thought, they are as strong as they were huge. The fan-favorite among them is undoubtedly, Thor. A part of this popularity probably stems from the popularity of MCU’s Thor. Although God of War: Ragnarok’s Thor, in addition to all the other Main Gods, is more brutal and badass. Fitting for the game’s theme.

Along with the gods’ strengths, powers, and backstories, there is now a trending curiosity about how tall each of the main gods is in God of War: Ragnarok. Defeating someone that towers over you multiple times your size sure is satisfying. Combining it with a bloody and gruesome battle of some of the strongest entities in the game’s world makes it a thrilling and adrenaline-filled experience.

Hence, let’s take a look at how tall the main gods in God of War are: Ragnarok.

Who are the main gods in God of War: Ragnarok?

By the main gods, we mean the gods in the game who is the story’s primary focus and have more than significant contributions to the game. Essentially, they are part of the main characters in the storyline.

They are:

  • Kratos
  • Atreus
  • Thor
  • Tyr
  • Odin

How Tall is Kratos in God of War: Ragnarok?

The protagonist of the series, Kratos, is the odd one out. He is the Greek God of War, taking the title from Ares. However, he was much taller in the original God of War series, a gigantic height of 7 feet and 6 inches.

From the rebooted series, he is now much more realistic to real-life human size, with a height of 6 feet and 4 inches or 1.93 meters. Combining his height with his beefed-up body, he would look like a total monster in real life. An inspiration to all bodybuilders and gym bros.

Atreus is the shortest in the game. Well, that’s because he’s still a kid. But height is still great for a kid, Atreus, aka Loki, The God of Doom and The Champion of Jötnar. He stands at 5 feet and 5 inches which is 1.67 meters.

How Tall is Thor in God of War: Ragnarok?

Thor, as we know, is not only The God of Thunder of Norse Mythology but also Strength, Agriculture; in God of War: Ragnarok is quite different from what we’ve usually seen in other popular media. Here he boasts a dad bod and a height of 7 feet or 2.13 meters, which gives him his ideal rough and rugged appearance, which he really is in the game.

In fact, he is way larger in size, both height, and width, than Kratos.

How Tall is Tyr?

Tyr is the Nordic God of War. Yes, in their role in the mythological world, he can be considered as Krato’s counterpart, equal or rival. But Tyr in God of War: Ragnarok is nowhere near equal to Kratos or any other main gods regarding height.

Tyr is the tallest of the main gods. His height is an absurd length of 8 feet and 5 inches or 2.59 meters. So he looks hilariously mountainous when standing beside other characters in the game. Just look at the picture where he is looking over Kratos.

How Tall is Odin?

Odin is the highest power in Nordic mythological lore. He is The God of Sky, Wisdom, Poetry, Death, and Magic. To sum it all up, he is called the Allfather.

In addition to his godly titles, he is also the king and ruler of Asgard (home of the gods), Aesir Gods, and Valhalla (home of the fallen and similar to the concept of heaven).

With all these all-powerful roles, titles, and powers, Odin is 6 feet or 1.82 meters. Shorter than all of the main gods except Atreus. Furthermore, he also does not have the grizzly, fearsome, or mighty appearance, even though he has unimaginable strength within him. He is the Allfather, after all. Instead, in God of War: Ragnarok, he has the old and wise sage-type look, who once used to be a great warrior but now dialed it back. Age can take its toll.

These are all the main gods in God of War: Ragnarok, along with how tall they are in the game. If you’re looking for more news and guides on God of War: Ragnarok, check these out: How to Use the Death from Above attack, How to Frost the Leviathan Axe, and Ending Explained.
