From the waist up, they appear to be a muscular warrior with thick bronze gauntlets and a bronze helmet. From the waist down, they are composed of nothing but flames, and move by quickly floating/gliding about. In their right hand they carry a heavy bronze mace, and in their left hand they carry a giant bronze shield, which Kratos must destroy in order to actually harm them. They assault Kratos by coming at him, and delivering damaging swipes and slams with their mace. After weakening the foe, Kratos can kill it by leaping up onto it; latching his blades around its neck; and then pulling from behind until its head snaps off. Later in the game, in parts of the Underworld, Kratos will encounter a very similar enemy called Death Knights.

| Intro
| - The Hyperion Guard is a type of enemy in ''Claptrap's New Robot Revolution, and is a member of the Hyperion recon team.
Hyperion Guards wear heavy armour making them very durable but also very slow, capable of only moving at a walking pace. In addition to their body armour they carry heavy, bullet-proof riot shields. In their other hand they wield a sidearm, usually a repeater pistol or revolver. They frequently have shields on top of their heavy armour, adding to their already impressive durability. Hyperion Guards wear a helmet that resembles a gas mask while their Claptrapped counterparts wear a balaclava.

| Strategy
| - Hyperion Guards show no interest in seeking cover, preferring instead to rely on their riot shields. When under fire they will move slowly forward or back, covering themselves closely with their shields, thus presenting a dramatically reduced targeting opportunity for enemies in front of them.
While their shields are bullet-proof and protect a large portion of their body, shots to their shield will cause the Guard to flinch and recoil his shield, making him temporarily vulnerable. Sniper rifles and automatic weapons are most effective on Guards. Sniper rifles can strike with precision at their head from a distance, while semi-automatic weapons can knock the shield aside and damage them with critical hits and body shots. Corrosive weaponry is highly effective against Guards.
