Wading Through the River Styx - God of War 3 Soundtrack @Jolielegal

Uploaded January 2023 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago

This song plays in the first gorgon fight of the game, shortly after arriving at Hades. The name "Wading Through the River Styx" comes from the composer's website.

This version plays the song twice, first with no brass, second (starting at 1:35) with less strings. This version also only has light choir. Overall, this version is a low intensity variation of the full song. The second in-game version, which plays when fighting Gorgons in the Labyrinth, has a higher intensity and features all the instruments.

Extended version (this version + Labyrinth version): youtu.be/DoEozZW4P9g
Composer version (short non-extended version): youtu.be/iV41xr0NA-k
