All Hel-Tear locations in God of War Ragnarok

There are six Hel-Tears for you to find. However, the first and second ones will be completed through the main story. The first occurs when Kratos and Atreus close at Sindri’s house, so you won’t have to worry about it. The second will happen while Atreus and Kratos are in Helheim, and Atreus handles this one himself without the assistance of Freya. You cannot miss these.
