See the Fan-Made "Dark Souls II" Shields on Proud Display in the Game

Now that the in-game results of the Dark Souls II fan-designed shield contest are coming to light, jealousy is setting in hard. The game's Facebook page recently shared a look at how two of the six winning shields look in Dark Souls II, and it's pretty impressive. 


 


First up is the Guardian Shield, which will appear in Dark Souls II as the Wicked Eye Greatshield:





 


Next is the Great Shield of the Raven Goddess, which will appear in Dark Souls II as the Rebel's Greatshield:





 


Even more amazing than the in-game items, however, is the prize awarded to winning designers. Each will be receiving real shields based on their designs, created by the blacksmiths of Armédia, makers of medieval weapons and accessories.


 






 


Dark Souls II hits PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in North America and Europe on March 11 and 14, respectively.
