God of War: Ghost of Sparta Collectibles
As you navigate through the hallway in God of War: Ghost of Sparta, you'll eventually come across a platform with a door on its left side. Use your newly acquired key to open the door and proceed inside.
Upon entering the room, you'll notice an enemy waiting for you. Quickly press the CIRCLE button repeatedly to defeat it and obtain the Automation Gear. Approach the enemy, and press CIRCLE again to initiate a mini-game that will gradually weaken his armor.
As you attack, hold down the R button while using Thera's Bane to set your blades on fire. However, be aware that due to his armored attire, he is invulnerable to regular attacks. When the mini-game concludes, return inside, and one of the statues in the room will come back to life.
The secret to progressing lies in keeping a close eye on the reanimated statue's backside. Once you've acquired Thera's Bane, sprint as quickly as possible towards the door while maintaining control over Kratos' chain by neither pulling it too hard nor too soft.
Don't forget to take advantage of this opportunity to earn your first chapter-related missable trophy, 'Make Her Scream,' which is exclusively accessible in this section of the game.
