Bonus Play Option

Once you successfully complete God of War II, save the game. Now, you can select the Bonus Play option when starting a new game. This lets you take the weapons and magic you earned in your first playthrough into the new game.

Hidden Sex Mini-Game

During the first level where you fight Colossus, he hits you into a house. Don't go under the water yet. Get out and run to the right side, where you see two covers and a flimsy-looking wall. One of them has some orbs in it, while the other has a couple of half-naked women chilling out in the water. Enjoy the mini-game. If you hit all the buttons at the right time, there is an explosion of red orbs.

Getting Red Orbs With the Blade of Olympus

You'll receive the Blade of Olympus after you beat the game. When it levels up once, you're then able to perform the Divine Sacrifice move by pressing L1 and Circle together. This move pulls the red orbs right out of enemies.

The Golden Fleece

You receive the Golden Fleece from the Cursed Cerberus. When you have it, you can use it to block enemy attacks by pressing L1. If you continuously press L1 you block and return almost all attacks.

Unlock All Movies

Completing God of War II unlocks all the movies in the game, including high-resolution movies and all cut-scenes.
