Yes, the Riot Shield is back with no changes in Black Ops 4 Zombies. The final map of the Aether storyline doesn’t change things up too much — you’ll find lots of old weapons, old monsters, and old friends in this chilly wasteland. The Riot Shield is just like every other shield in the Aether storyline maps — it protects your back, gives you a powerful melee punch, and gives you some bullets to blast enemies.
Like always, the Riot Shield can appear in a variety of different locations. Below, I’ll list all the locations I’ve found the Riot Shield so far and how to build it. The shield isn’t all that useful, but it’s great at protecting your back against the undead hordes. If it breaks, you (and your teammates) can always grab a replacement from the workbench.

[Work-in-Progress: Check back soon for more shield locations!]
The Riot Shield is a special weapon that slots into your [L1 / LB] slot. When equipped, you can hold [L2 / LT] to add extra front-facing protection and fire your pistol through the shield. The pistol has limited ammunition. The shield can be broken once it takes too much damage.
The Riot Shield workbench is located in the Lighthouse Station room. Once the Riot Shield has been constructed, anyone on your team can grab a shield or replace a lost shield.
- Shield Part Locations:
- Part #1: Frozen Crevasse — On the raised ice platform. Jump on the ramps to reach it.
- Part #2: Lighthouse Level 2 — Alone the wall inside the interior of the lighthouse.
- Part #3: Docks — Leaning against the snowy rocks, near the underwater passage entrance.
Collect all three parts and put them together at the Lighthouse Station workbench to create your Riot Shield.
