There aren’t many long-term collectibles in Monopoly GO, but shields are one of the most important. While the basic orange option from the start of the game gets the job done, there are much better shields waiting to be obtained while playing the game.
What Does A Shield Do in Monopoly GO?
A shield protects Monopoly GO players from getting hit when they are targeted by a Shutdown. These attacks are done by other players who have landed on a Railroad tile, and it can set the progress on landmarks back when a bunch of repairs have to be done.
How To Get More Shields In Monopoly GO
The easiest way to get new shields in Monopoly GO is by playing through featured minigames. Shields can be offered as milestone rewards in Partners and Treasures events. They are also found in the sticker collection rewards for active album challenges.
To obtain them, players will need to reach and complete the milestone level they are tied to. Afterward, they will be permanently available to use in the shield vault.
