sportskeeda.com:

One of the several Berserkers to beat as part of the Favor "Fit for a King" is Hvitserkr The Bold. These fights are similar to the Valkyrie mini-boss battles of the previous God of War (2018). The fights can be incredibly brutal for the ill-prepared, and it is highly recommended to use a mid-to-end level geared Kratos in them.

This guide will cover the Berserker Hvitserkr The Bold and the strategies on how to defeat him.

This fight can be particularly tricky, and it is recommended that players exercise caution when fighting against this foe.

Hvitserkr The Bold can be found in the Southern Wilds in Vanaheim. Head onward to the Pilgrim’s Landing, to the circular white structure. The gravestone that will summon Hvitserkr can be located in the vicinity.

Defeating this particular boss will drop the following rewards for Kratos:

To unlock this particular Berserker battle and all the rest in general, players must begin the Favor "Fit for a King' when they reach Chapter 9, "Word of Fate." Players control Kratos and make their way through the game’s story campaign to reach the King’s Grave. The King’s Grave can be located northeast of the Lake of Nine.

Kratos will then unlock the ominous "Inert Hilt of Skofnung" from the gravestone in the area. This hilt can then be inserted into other similar gravestones to summon the Berserkers for the challenge.

Developed by Santa Monica Studios and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment, God of War Ragnarok is a sequel to 2018’s God of War. The game features the return of Kratos and his son Atreus in ancient Scandinavia as they battle against the tide to prevent Ragnarok.

God of War Ragnarok was released to much critical acclaim on November 9, 2022, for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 4 Pro, and
