In God of War Ragnarok, Svartalfheim is the realm of the dwarves. You’ll visit it early on in the game’s main story quest line, The Path, but at that early stage you won’t be able to get most of its many collectibles. Return to Svartalfheim after the credits have rolled though, and you’ll be able to collect everything, including 17 Lore collectibles, the locations of which are detailed below.
