Ever sinceGod of Warreleased on PC, gamers have gone out of their way to swap out the game’s character models with figures from other franchises. Some are goofy, likeKratos and Atreus being swapped with Homer and Bart Simpson, though others are cooler.
A recentPirates of the Caribbeanmod leans more toward the latter category, and it sees Jack Sparrow doing battle with Davy Jones. This format should be very familiar to those that have kept up with theGod of Warmod scene, as players have already made characters clash using the Stranger boss battle. Master Chief battled Kratos in one viral clip, while another video focused on theDoom Slayer fighting Master Chief. Now, some non-video game characters are getting into fights withing the game’s Norse world.

The mod in question was shown off by Redditor lolmetwice and sees Jack Sparrow standing in for Baldur while Davy Jones fill Kratos’ shoes. The best thing about this decision is that Baldur has a lot ofJack Sparrowmannerisms when it comes to his movement, stumbling and swaying around like the beloved pirate. While this would have been a good enough touch on its own, the person behind the mod made sure to add dialogue from the actual Jack Sparrow, playing the lines in place of Baldur’s.
Johnny Deppcan be heard introducing himself as Captain Jack Sparrow, with the Redditor then skipping to the part where Baldur launches Kratos into the sky. As Davy Jones hits the ground,Pirates of the Caribbeanmusic plays, serving as a funny touch that shows just how much effort was put into this edited fight. The clip ends with Jack Sparrow leaping high into the sky and landing by Davy Jones, uttering one of Baldur’s lines and reminding fans that this is just a mod and not a fully voiced Jack Sparrow.
Obviously, this is not how Jack Sparrow and Davy Jones fought in the realPirates of the Caribbean, as neither character had superpowers that allowed them to punch each other through the sky or leap great distances. Despite this, manyGod of Warfans on Reddit got a kick out of this clip, with the post bringing in over 1,200 upvotes. In the comments section, somePirates of the Caribbeanquotes were edited to better suit theGod of Waruniverse. Redditor RAGE-OF-SPARTA-X praised Bill Nighy for their portrayal of Davy Jones in thePiratesfilms, sharing their dream casting for him to play Mimir in theGod of Warshow.
While it remains to be seen who will be cast forAmazon’sGod of Warseries, this is a solid suggestion. For now, though, the only connection between thePirates of the CaribbeanandGod of Warfranchises is this unexpected mod.
God of Waris available now on PC, PS4, and PS5.
