God of War Ragnarok: The Summoning - walkthrough

The Summoning is the penultimate main task in God of War Ragnarok. The walkthrough from our guide explains the steps to follow during the second visit to Muspelheim. We explain, e.g. how to get to Surtr's Forge, when Surtr can help Kratos, and what the so-called point of no return is.

• Reach Surtr's Forge
• Approach the ashen man
• Follow Surtr
• Return to the Mystic Gateway - point of no return
• Travel to Tyr's Temple in Midgard

Reach Surtr's Forge

This task will begin after Kratos reaches Muspelheim and you will start in the Burning Cliffs region.

Head southeast. Create a seal on the red vines and destroy them with Blades to unlock a narrow passage between the rocks. You have to defeat a Wight and Draugr Lords. Parry their yellow attacks and hit them with your shield when they try to use blue attacks. Focus on one enemy at a time.

After the battles, choose the narrow passage next to the lava waterfall and use your spear on the weak point on the rock. You will encounter a Flame Phantom - a mini-boss.

Focus on attacking its core and destroying runic springs after they lose their protection. We described the boss fight in detail on a separate page Flame Phantom in the Bosses chapter.

Approach the ashen man

After the fights, choose the arena exit. You will reach the Surtr's Forge region. Slide down the rope and approach Surtr.

Before you can meet Surtr, you need to defeat a pair of Soul Eaters. We described the confrontation with the two mini-bosses on a separate page Soul Eaters in the Bosses chapter.

After winning the fight, collect the loot and approach Surtr again.

Follow Surtr

Follow Surtr, who will unlock a new passage next to the forge. You will reach the Spark of the World region. Jump to the next levitating shelves.

After watching the cut-scene, the heroes will be attacked by 2 Valkyries. We described the fight with these bosses in detail on the Hrist and Mist page in the Bosses chapter.

After the battle, approach the edge again to complete the quest.

Return to the Mystic Gateway - point of no return

Head back towards the Mystic Gateway from the Burning Cliffs region, the one you began your current visit to Muspelheim. On the way to the gate, you will face enemies, including a new Wyvern (focus your attacks on this monster).

Climb near Surtr's Forge - the place is shown in the picture.

Defeat more monsters and choose the narrow passage behind the lava. In the new location, there will be a stronger opponent riding a beast - move away from the circles on the ground.

When you reach the gate, you will find out that you have reached the so-called point of no return:

1. If you want to advance to the game's finale, visit Tyr's Temple in Midgard. Once you do that, you won't be able to explore freely until you finish the game.
2. If you want to continue freely exploring the game world, don't go to the Temple just yet.

Travel to Tyr's Temple in Midgard

Choose Lake of Nine in Midgard as your destination. Reach the Tyr's Temple and go up using the elevator.

At the top, you can meet with several characters and begin The Realms at War main quest.
