God of War Chaos Flames are among the most important items in Midgard. Finding and using them is the only way to upgrade the Blades of Chaos, which you'll need if you want to complete God of War's toughest challenges. But if you're here wondering how to get your hands on it.
We will explain that in this God of War guide. Finding the Flames of Chaos is mostly about defeating certain bosses, though the final flame is a bit more work to get. Here's what you need to know about their locations. Note that there are story spoilers below, so be careful!
All God of War Chaos Flames Locations
God of War has four Chaos Flames, which upgrade your Blades of Chaos to the maximum level of five. However, you won't be able to reach level five until you've completed the main campaign, thanks to a quirk in the way you get the last one.
Aside from the last one, you'll get Chaos Flames as part of the main story by defeating bosses, so there's little chance of accidentally missing one. Here's when you'll get each of them.
- Chaos Flame 1: Defeat the Bridgekeeper in Helheim
- Chaos Flame 2: Defeat Grendel of Frost and Grendel of Ash in the Temple of Tyr
- Chaos Flame 3: Defeat the Traveler on your second trip to Helheim
Chaos Flame 4, sometimes called the fifth CF because it upgrades Blades of Chaos to level five, is a bit different. You'll need to complete an optional challenge for this and defeat Valkyrie Gondul in Muspelheim. You get the Raging Fire of Muspelheim for this, and once you've completed the main campaign you can give it to Brok in exchange for the last one.
How to Upgrade Chaos Blades in God of War
Talk to Brok or Sindri after getting a Chaos Flame and you'll get the chance to upgrade the blades. It also unlocks new combat skills to purchase and allows Kratos to level up.
