In God of War SeriesEdit

God of War: AscensionEdit

The Cyclops Berserker has two different variations in God of War: Ascension.

A brown colored Cyclops Berserker appears in the Public Demo, wielding a metal club. Once weakened, Kratos can quickly climb on his back and ride the beast. As it grows weak, Kratos finishes the beast by slitting its chest and stomach, exposing its small intestine, before it collapses.

A dark green Cyclops appears later in the game. Cyclopes are killed by a warrior slicing their chests open. They use a tree trunk as a club, like the Berserkers in the other games. It appears that two warriors must team up to take down the beast, one to hold the cyclops in place by grabbing the eye and the other to deliver the finishing blow.

God of War IIEdit

Cyclops Berserkers are the largest species of Cyclops that appear as enemies in God of War II. They wield what appears to be a gigantic tree trunk as a club and are often summoned by Beast Lords, after which can they hoist themselves onto its shoulders, controlling it in battle, and allowing them to do more dangerous attacks.

After weakening it, Kratos can kill a Cyclops Berserker by stabbing it in the knee, and then climbing the creature and stabbing his way up, until he is able to take out its eye, which will then be added to his total collection of Cyclops Eyes. These beasts are only encountered at the Ruins of the Forgotten, and near the entrance of the Palace of the Fates.

God of War IIIEdit

Cyclops Berserkers appear once more in God of War III. They look very similar to how they appeared in God of War II, as their fighting style mostly remains the same, although they now sport with orange skin. Upon weakening a Cyclops Berserker, Kratos can climb upon them and briefly take control of them himself. After he has finished using the beast, he will climb off the cyclops, ripping out its eye in the process.

With the Claws of Hades, Kratos can summon a Cyclops Berserker, which will give a hit with his feet and smash his fist on the ground, hurting the enemies around.

TriviaEdit

• In the early trailers of God of War II, Kratos fights and de-eyes Cyclops Berserkers in front of the Palaces of the Steeds of Time. In the game they appear for the first time by the Ruins of the Forgotten.
• In the trailer for God of War III, Cyclops Berserkers are controlled by Olympus Sentries like the Beast Lords, but this never happens in the game.
• God of War: Ascension is the first game in which Kratos doesn't brutal kill the cyclops by tearing out the eye. It's also the first game in which a Cyclops Berserkers appear wielding a metal club instead of tree. 
• In God of War: Ascension, they look more animalistic that in the previous titles. Their skulls look wider and they have fangs in both upper as lower jaw. 
  • Despite the aesthetic changes, they have exactly the same move-set as the Beserkers in God of War III.
