Metashield



A metashield is a protective shield created by the Academy in Final Fantasy XIII-2.

The metashield is deployed in 500 AF and is used to protect the planet of Gran Pulse from the damage that would otherwise be caused by Cocoon's fall.

The metashield is deployed successfully and Cocoon's fall causes virtually no damage to Gran Pulse, allowing the successful launch of the new Cocoon, Bhunivelze. Unfortunately, soon after, everything is consumed by the Chaos released from Valhalla.

Trivia

 * The Stoic Virtue Fragment obtained for completing one of the Brain Blast quizzes describes the metashield as an invisible cushion of force that will soften Cocoon's impact.
 * Track 18 of the fourth disc of Final Fantasy XIII-2 ' s original soundtrack is titled "Metashield Deployed."
