God of War Laufey bosses confirmed as of 2026-08-04: Sekhmet (Egyptian goddess of war) and Begtse (Mongolian/Tibetan god of war). The full roster is unannounced.
Last reviewed:
God of War Laufey bosses confirmed as of 2026-08-04 are two: Sekhmet (the Egyptian goddess of war) and Begtse (the Mongolian / Tibetan god of war). Both are framed as opening-boss foes drawn from outside the Norse tradition, consistent with the Everywhen multi-mythology setting. The full boss roster, the final boss, and any chapter-specific bosses are not officially announced as of 2026-08-04, and there is no signal of additional named bosses beyond these two on the record.

Confirmed God of War Laufey Bosses: Sekhmet and Begtse
Sekhmet is the first of the two confirmed God of War Laufey bosses. She is the Egyptian goddess of war, drawn from the Egyptian pantheon rather than from the Norse tradition that anchored the 2018–2022 duology. Her inclusion is consistent with the Everywhen's multi-mythology framing: the setting pulls deities from across pantheons into the same playable world.
What the confirmation covers:
- Identity: Sekhmet, the Egyptian goddess of war (per godofwar.fandom.com Sekhmet entry, State of Play reveal trailer, and the God of War Laufey Fandom wiki page).
- Pantheon scope: Egyptian. The Egyptian framing is consistent across the Fandom entry and the State of Play reveal trailer.
- Foe role: opening boss. Sekhmet and Begtse are framed together as the opening-boss duo from the State of Play reveal.
- Setting placement: the Everywhen.
What is not announced: Sekhmet's exact moveset, attack patterns, phase structure, story chapter placement within Laufey, and whether she appears more than once across Faye's arc.
Begtse: the Mongolian / Tibetan God of War
Begtse is the second of the two confirmed bosses. He is the Mongolian / Tibetan god of war, drawn from the Central Asian war-god tradition. Begtse's inclusion is the second piece of evidence for the Everywhen's multi-mythology framing: with Sekhmet pulling from Egypt and Begtse pulling from Mongolia / Tibet, the opening duo itself spans three continents of mythological tradition.
What the confirmation covers:
- Identity: Begtse, the Mongolian / Tibetan god of war (per the State of Play reveal trailer, the God of War Laufey Fandom wiki page, and community-attributed discussion on the Reddit /r/GodofWarRagnarok mythology thread).
- Pantheon scope: Mongolian / Tibetan. The framing positions Begtse outside both the Egyptian and Norse traditions.
- Foe role: opening boss. Like Sekhmet, Begtse is framed as part of the opening duo in the State of Play reveal.
- Setting placement: the Everywhen.
What is not announced: Begtse's moveset, attack patterns, phase structure, story chapter placement, and whether the Mongolian / Tibetan framing extends to other deities later in Faye's arc.
The Everywhen's Multi-Mythology Boss Range
The two confirmed bosses span Egyptian and Mongolian / Tibetan traditions. That cross-pantheon reach is the headline takeaway from the opening duo, because it is the cleanest demonstration of what the Everywhen's multi-mythology framing actually looks like in playable form. The Norse duology anchored its enemies to one tradition; Laufey pulls from at least three.
What the reach implies for the unannounced roster:
- The confirmed duo is the floor, not the ceiling. Two bosses are confirmed, but the multi-mythology framing implies more, and the State of Play reveal positions Sekhmet and Begtse as the opening encounters rather than the full roster.
- No additional pantheons are confirmed. As of 2026-08-04, the confirmed boss pantheon coverage is Egyptian (Sekhmet) and Mongolian / Tibetan (Begtse). Norse, Greek, Japanese, Hindu, Celtic, Slavic, Mesoamerican, Polynesian, and other traditions have no confirmed boss representation on the record.
- No Norse-tradition bosses are confirmed for Laufey. The 2018 God of War and God of War Ragnarök (2022) anchored enemies to Norse tradition; in Laufey, no Norse-tradition boss is confirmed on the record, consistent with the Everywhen replacing the Nine Realms.
- No Greek-tradition bosses are confirmed. The earlier Greek-era God of War canon anchored enemies to Greek tradition; in Laufey, no Greek-tradition boss is confirmed, consistent with the Everywhen being explicitly not Elysium.
Why the Boss Roster Is "Two Confirmed as of 2026-08-04"
The current confirmed roster is two bosses — Sekhmet and Begtse — and that is the only number the record supports. Any larger figure (three, five, ten, "around a dozen") is not on the record as of 2026-08-04.
- Confirmed: Sekhmet (Egyptian goddess of war) and Begtse (Mongolian / Tibetan god of war). Both framed as opening bosses from the State of Play reveal.
- Not announced: the full boss roster, the final boss, any mid-game or chapter-specific bosses, any optional or secret bosses, any boss rematches, and any boss-versus-boss encounters.
- Not announced: how the confirmed bosses relate to Faye's combat pillars (speed, control, relentlessness) in gameplay terms.
