Zeus armor schemes are unlocked by defeating three Valkyries in NG + mode and in particular:
- Gloves of Zeus - Gondul (Muspelheim).

- Breastplate of Zeus - Sigrun, the queen of the Valkyries. Therefore, the last piece of armor can only be unlocked once all the other Valkyries in the game have been defeated and released.
The basic features of the new armor are truly unique. The description (see below) defines it as a blessing and a curse at the same time, here's why:
- Crystal Catapult: significantly increases the damage dealt by Kratos' attacks, but at the same time intensifies the damage received by opposing blows. The more armor items used, the more these effects are enhanced.

Armor of Ares
The armor of Ares, the Greek god of war, increases your strength and defense stats, as well as luck and runic skills recharge, however, it lacks vitality. Specifically, the new armor, in the favorite color of the god of war, red, allows Kratos to greatly enhance the effectiveness of the fury of Sparta and the damage caused, but at the same time the duration is shortened. The positive and negative effects increase if you use more elements of the armor.
To find the blueprints for the Ares armor, you must defeat the mountain dragon.
