God of War Ragnarok has a few shields dividing them into two separate types. So here are all the shields and how you can get them in the game.
God of War: Ragnarok builds up on the previous game and makes the combat even more in-depth. To continue that, the game introduces two different types of shields. One is a blocking shield that can block and absorb energy into it. Then you can release the energy with a shield slam onto the ground.
The other shield is a parrying shield. It is not for blocking. This shield can only be used for parrying different attacks from enemies. Getting a parry will open them up for the following strike. Different parry shield also grants different abilities when you parry them.
So there is a lot of fun to change and experiment with different types of shields. Thus here we have listed all the shields and how you can find those in God of War Ragnarok.
