Population Control: you have to prevent a total of 50 enemies from appearing on the arena for 90 seconds. It's quite easy and can be completed on the first try. The enemies are plain undeads and your weapon is the Cestus. Attack by using the Square, Square, Triangle combo and as the enemies are in the air - finish them off with L1+Square.

Keep an eye on the situation and watch where the enemies gather. Attack the biggest groups.

Bare Hands: you have to eliminate all the enemies in 75 seconds - Trophies - Challenges | Trophies - Trophies - God of War 3 Game Guide & Walkthrough

Bare Hands: you have to eliminate all the enemies in 75 seconds. Achieve it by constantly grabbing the normal undeads and then charging (Square) into others. At the beginning your target will be two stone statues and afterwards an armoured Cyclops will take over the role of the main enemy.

Before the Cyclops show up, you should weaken the statues a lot (it's quite possible). During one charge you can deal damage several times. In order to make it in time, you can't waste time for normal finishers.

It's a quite demanding task and you probably won't finish it on the first try.

Get Stoned: its by far the hardest challenge, requiring both time and patience - Trophies - Challenges | Trophies - Trophies - God of War 3 Game Guide & Walkthrough

Get Stoned: it's by far the hardest challenge, requiring both time and patience. In order to complete it, you have to get petrified 10 times. Would be easy, if not for the arena filled with enemies.

Before I move on to the main strategy, some tips: don't fight the enemies (it's not your main task and you won't have enough health), don't jump (if you get petrified during the light, falling down will equal death) and above all - don't attack the Medusas (keep a distance and provoke them to petrify you.

The key is to know how to behave during the petrification - Trophies - Challenges | Trophies - Trophies - God of War 3 Game Guide & Walkthrough

The key is to know how to behave during the petrification. If you get hit by the green beam, stop and block the attack. It will only work if you press one of the basic buttons during the activated QTE - don't do it. This way you will speed up the process. Once it's finished, quickly move the left stick to free yourself.

After 2 waves of enemies Harpies will appear, after 4 a Medusa and Satyr and after 8 an armoured Cyclops (which will additionally make thinks harder). Constantly keep moving, run from enemies and block their attacks if you need to. Also try not to waste any green beam.

El Matador - Ole: its a very hard challenge, if you dont know the trick (which makes it very easy in fact) - Trophies - Challenges | Trophies - Trophies - God of War 3 Game Guide & Walkthrough

El Matador - Ole: it's a very hard challenge, if you don't know the trick (which makes it very easy in fact). For this challenge to be completed, you can't let any Minotaur hit you or any undead grab you (the enemies won't use any other attacks). Stand at the edge of the arena and wait for the enemy to approach. Afterwards you have to jump in the direction of the pit and glide back onto the arena. The Minotaurs will fall down and you'll only have to deal with the undeads (L1 + Square), which isn't hard.

Knockout: a very easy task which can be completed on the first try - Trophies - Challenges | Trophies - Trophies - God of War 3 Game Guide & Walkthrough

Knockout: a very easy task which can be completed on the first try. You have to get 1000 points on 60 seconds by throwing enemies out of the arena. To make things easier, I will add that you can (or even must) take over the Cyclops. Once he shows up, attack him with a full Triangle combo (start hitting even before he fully materializes) and press Circle once the QTE mark appears (no more buttons are required, Kratos will automatically do the rest).

During knocking off, use the faster attack under Square and head to where more precious enemies are (it this case, Minotaurs).

Hades Kids: this challenge is one of the most demanding - Trophies - Challenges | Trophies - Trophies - God of War 3 Game Guide & Walkthrough

Hades' Kids: this challenge is one of the most demanding. You will have to kill four armoured Cyclops. Deal with the first one using Triangle combos. After he's dead, two more will appear. Continue using Triangle, while keeping in mind that the last attack knocks the enemies back. Try to make it hit two enemies at once (you can make it so the enemies don't even have the chance to counter attack). Once they're dead, as much as four more will appear. This is where this challenge gets tough.

You can focus on one of them, while trying not to get killed and what's more probable - getting knocked out of the arena. Keep attacking the chosen one of them and wait for a QTE mark to appear - once it does, quickly activate it - it will require pressing four basic buttons. You can also try to run along the edge of the arena (while constantly jumping) and try to make one of the enemies fall down (Cyclops are quite big and they tend to fall down often).

Simply Smashing: its quite easy, but might require several tries - Trophies - Challenges | Trophies - Trophies - God of War 3 Game Guide & Walkthrough

Simply Smashing: it's quite easy, but might require several tries. Your task is to destroy 30 pots in 20 seconds. Use the Square, Square, Triangle combo. Try to aim the first two attacks and make use of the third, powerful one. You should also try to destroy the pots while following a pattern and not leave any behind.
