God of War: Ragnarok is an action-adventure game released exclusively for PlayStation consoles. The game takes place three years after the events of God of War 2018. And now, the players will have to face many enemies and visit all nine Realms. And in this guide, we will tell you if you should choose Niflheim or Alfheim first in God of War: Ragnarok.

Niflheim in God of War: Ragnarok

As in the previous part, in God of War: Ragnarok players will be able to travel to different Realms. Each of the 9 Realms has unique locations, enemies, and quests. And after you find Tyr and bring him home to Yggdrasil, you can unlock two new Realms, namely Niflheim and Alfheim. To do this, you need to go to the Mystic Gate and have a little chat with Ratatoskr. This cute squirrel will give you the Seed of Yggdrasil. And after that, you will have to decide where to go.

Actually, this choice is not so important. You will be able to visit both Realms anyway. But if you want to practice fighting different enemies and farm resources, you should head to Niflheim. There you will be able to face all the enemies you have fought up to this point. What’s more, in this Realm, you can find six treasure chests that can be opened after killing Odin’s Ravens.

Alfheim in God of War: Ragnarok

In Alfheim, you will continue the story quest and new information about Ragnarok. Moreover, you will be able to see the result of the war between the elves. And maybe last time, you really took the wrong side.

That’s all you need to know about choosing between Niflheim or Alfheim. We recommend that you travel to Alfheim first. But it is better to come to Niflheim after you kill all the Ravens of Odin.
