Cyclops Brute 5 — Kratos battling a Cyclops Brute in the Athens Town Square

Cyclops Brutes are enemies that appear both in God of War and God of War II.

They appear as standard Cyclops that wield a gigantic jawbone as a club. They attack Kratos by attempting to crush him with their club or stomp on him with their feet. They can also pick Kratos up, throw him to the ground, and pummel him with their club.

Kratos encounters these monsters a few times throughout Athens, and also one time throughout the Palace of the Fates, and in the Inner Sanctum of the Temple of the Fates.

In God of War, after Kratos has stunned the beast, he can impale it in its eye with one of his Blades of Chaos, and then yank it head-first into the ground. However, doing this won't kill the beast, since it has to be stunned two more times to allow Kratos to finish it off.

In God of War II, upon weakening the Cyclops, Kratos can kill it in a way just like how he kills a Cyclops Enforcer in God of War. Also, if the player fails in pressing any of the buttons of the minigame sequence, the beast's counter attack it's the same that the Enforcers perform on Kratos with their spiked ball.
