The Hylian Shield makes its fourth main series appearance in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]''. It is found within [[Turtle Rock (A Link Between Worlds)|Turtle Rock]], one of the seven [[Lorule]] dungeons. Because of the player's choice as to which dungeons to tackle in whatever order, the Hylian Shield can be acquired fairly early or even at the end of the adventure.

The main improvements in the Hylian Shield over the regular Shield are its ability to block flames and beams, such as a [[Wizzrobe]]'s attack or any flame-based projectile. Also, the shield cannot be eaten by [[Like Like]]s. Despite the fact that it is made of metal, it can block the electric [[Buzz Blob]] attacks without hurting link.  It is very useful against enemies, particularly in the [[Treacherous Tower]], where there are plenty of projectile-using foes.
