| 300 (₦6,000) || {{n/a}} || 25x (₦5,000) || {{n/a}}

|}

Packing a slightly harder punch and trading critical for piercing; this is not much of an upgrade. There isn't much reason to buy or upgrade this beyond achievements.

For those seeking the absolute best handgun; the M93R has the highest damage per second despite not having the highest damage per bullet. It achieves this by having a 1-3 round burst fire. It is however the most expensive and consumes the most ammo.

The most basic shotgun and found early in the game. Like the first handgun, it lacks damage but has a critical bonus. It can get the job done but there are better options. Upgrading this to max is required to unlock the Hydra.

{{-}}

===M3===

! Level || Firepower || Reload Speed || Capacity

|-

| 900 (₦12000) || {{n/a}} || {{n/a}}

|}

This is the hardest hitting shotgun but sacrifices all other stats. If you value close range power, as opposed to extended range, this is the best shotgun.

{{-}}

===Jail Breaker===

! Level || Firepower || Reload Speed || Capacity || Attack Range

|-

| {{n/a}} || {{n/a}} || 15x (₦6000) || {{n/a}}

|}

This shotgun sacrifices most of its damage for a longer range. Being the weakest shotgun, and actually doing less damage than several handguns; it's hard to justify. It also comes far too late in the campaign. Most players probably won't care about this weapon.

{{-}}

===Hydra===

! Level || Firepower || Reload Speed || Capacity || Attack Range

|-

| 550 (₦13000) || {{n/a}} || {{n/a}} || {{n/a}}

|}

Another extended range shotgun, but much better than the Jail Breaker. Still, its cost is probably hard to justify vs upgrading other weapons to use for longer ranges.

{{-}}

===VZ61===

! Level || Firepower || Reload Speed || Capacity || Critical Hit

|-

| {{n/a}} || {{n/a}} || 300x (₦10000) || {{n/a}}

|}

The first machine gun in the game and definitely the most lacking. The damage per bullet is pitiful, and the critical bonus won't help much. Upgrading this to max is required to unlock the Gatling Gun.

{{-}}

===H&K MP5===

! Level || Firepower || Reload Speed || Capacity || Piercing

|-

| {{n/a}} || {{n/a}} || 150x (₦6000) || {{n/a}}

|}

While better than the VZ61, this is still a weak weapon. With no unlock attached to it, there isn't much reason to upgrade it.

{{-}}

===AK-74===

! Level || Firepower || Reload Speed || Capacity

|-

| 250 (₦10000) || {{n/a}} || {{n/a}}

|}

This is the hardest hitting machine gun, uncontested for damage per bullet, but sacrifices other stats to obtain it.

{{-}}

===SIG 556===

! Level || Firepower || Reload Speed || Capacity

|-

| 180 (₦12000) || {{n/a}} || {{n/a}}

|}

This machine gun trades raw damage for a better balance of stats.

{{-}}

===S75===

! Level || Firepower || Reload Speed || Capacity

|-

| 2,000 (₦12,000) || {{n/a}} || {{n/a}}

|}

The first rifle is also the hardest hitting. On top of that, it has an amazing capacity which can somehow hold more bullets than its ammo box. The downside is that it isn't automatic. The rate of fire is slow and you will drop out of scope between every shot. It is a fantastic weapon for the computer partner. Upgrading this to max is required to unlock the Long Bow.

{{-}}

===Dragunov SVD===

! Level || Firepower || Reload Speed || Capacity

|-

| 1300 (₦12,000) || {{n/a}} || {{n/a}}

|}

For those who don't like the bolt action rifle; this is found soon after. It is automatic but inferior on damage, capacity, and shakes horribly in the scope. The trade probably isn't worth it and there's no unlock attached to it.

{{-}}

===H&K PSG-1===

! Level || Firepower || Reload Speed || Capacity || Scope

|-

| 1,200 (₦7,000) || {{n/a}} || {{n/a}} || {{n/a}}

|}

While having the worst damage per bullet; this rifle is automatic, doesn't shake, and has a super scope. Out of the two automatic rifles, this would be the one to take, but it really late in the campaign.

{{-}}

===S&W M29===

! Level || Firepower || Reload Speed || Capacity || Piercing

|-

|3,200 (₦10,000) || {{n/a}} || 12x (₦10,000) || {{n/a}}

|}

The first magnum already hits hard and carries a nice amount of bullets. If you want an even bigger one; upgrading this to max unlocks the M500.

{{-}}

===Lightning Hawk===

! Level || Firepower || Reload Speed || Capacity || Piercing

|-

|3,000 (₦12,000) || {{n/a}} || {{n/a}} || {{n/a}}

|}

This magnum trades raw damage for other stats which you probably don't care about on a magnum. It's another weapon most players will just want to skip.

{{-}}

===S&W M500===

! Level || Firepower || Reload Speed || Capacity || Piercing

|-

|5,000 (₦15,000) || {{n/a}} || {{n/a}} || {{n/a}}

|}

Practically a cannon, this magnum will end any enemy quickly, even on the hardest difficulty. The limitation of magnum ammo however might make it less ideal than other specials.

{{-}}

==MISC==

===Grenades===

===Proximity Bomb===

===Gatling Gun===

This is exclusive to Chris and has infinite ammo. If it is in his inventory, Chris carries a huge bullet crate which obstructs your view but also blocks enemy projectiles from behind. It has a horrible accuracy and recoil but infinite ammo. It will fire for as long as you hold down the trigger or until something makes you stop. No enemy will last long in front of this monster. Makes for a great weapon on the computer partner if you don't want to use it yourself.

===Long Bow===

This is exclusive to Sheva and has infinite ammo. It shoots arrows which hit surprisingly hard but travel in an arc. This means you have to aim up if you want to hit enemies far away. It also has no laser pointer. This might make most players avoid using it but in that case consider giving it to the computer partner. It has no trouble aiming this weapon.

===Herbs===

===First Aid Spray===

==Eggs==

|g=15

|trophy=Bronze

|description=Find all 4 types of eggs.

}}

The White, Brown and Golden eggs are healing items, but unlike herbs and first aid sprays they will only heal the person who uses them.

The 4th egg is the rotten egg. It does not heal. It instead functions like an acid grenade. It drops randomly from enemies starting at chapter 4.
