A God of War player has defeated Sigrun using the power of dance.

Dancing is not only good for the body; it's also known to boost your emotional well-being and keep your mind healthy. But rather than bust a move to some catchy tunes, one God of War player has used the power of dance to take down Sigrun, the game's notoriously tricky Valkyrie boss.

The impressive stunt was pulled off by popular Twitch streamer MissMikkaa, who shared her victory over the Valkyrie Queen in a tweet. As the video below shows, the player uses some fancy footwork to dodge the foe's attacks and counter with a flurry of punches. If you've come across Sigrun, you'll know she takes considerable effort to beat even if you're sitting comfortably with a controller, thanks to her incredible strength and serious skill when wielding a scythe.

It's DONE! I killed the Valkyrie Queen Sigrún in God of War with a Dance Pad. Let me tell you... This was Malenia difficulty but so much more fast-paced. Took me 216 tries and about 12 hours to kill her. The fatigue is real. Now I'm ready for #GodofWarRagnarok pic.twitter.com/jp0A4RqFkmNovember 6, 2022

After landing the killing blow, MissMikkaa, decked out in God of War-themed attire for the occasion, is exhausted but elated, as it was a hard-won victory. According to the streamer, it took her a whooping 216 tries and around 12 hours to finally beat the boss. 

MissMikkaa likened the battle to Elden Ring's famously tough boss Malenia whom she also defeated using a dance mat. "This was Malenia difficulty but so much more fast-paced," says MissMikkaa adding, "The fatigue is real". Let's hope she gets a good rest before dealing some dance-based blows to God of War Ragnarok's bosses.

MissMikkaa doesn't just up the ante using dance mats; earlier this year, the streamer set herself the challenge of completing Elden Ring using only one hand while staying at Rune Level 1.

See what we think of Kratos' latest Norse myth-inspired adventure in our God of War Ragnarok review.

Originally from Ireland, I moved to the UK in 2014 to pursue a Games Journalism and PR degree at Staffordshire University. Following that, I've freelanced for GamesMaster, Games TM, Official PlayStation Magazine and, more recently, Play and GamesRadar+. My love of gaming sprang from successfully defeating that first Goomba in Super Mario Bros on the NES. These days, PlayStation is my jam. When not gaming or writing, I can usually be found scouring the internet for anything Tomb Raider related to add to my out of control memorabilia collection.
