Description[]
The Leviathan Axe is a two-handed battle axe. It was forged by Brok and Sindri for Laufey, in hopes that she would help undo their mistake in creating Mjolnir. Following Laufey's death, it was passed onto her husband Kratos.
Gameplay[]
The Leviathan Axe is Kratos's default weapon. It is imbued with ice elemental power, making it particularly effective against fire-based enemies. The Axe can be thrown at targets and summoned back to the user's hand at will: the targets its hits will be frozen until the axe is summoned back, making it useful both for combat and puzzle solving.
However, due to the Axe's frost nature, it is ineffective against Hel-Walkers (as they hail from the frigid Helheim).
Upgrades[]
By finding Frozen Flames, Kratos can have the Axe upgraded by either Brok or Sindri, which will permanently upgrade his attack power.

Trivia[]
- The Leviathan Axe is never referred to in-game by its name.
- The ability to summon the axe came as a result of game-testing. The director Cody Barlog insisted on being able to throw the axe: however, it became a hassle for testers to run back and retrieve the axe after throwing it. The ability to summon the axe back, similar to Thor's ability to summon Mjolnir, was created as a solution to this problem.
