All Resident Evil Requiem Weapons And Where To Find Them

Are you looking to collect every weapon in Resident Evil Requiem? In a survival horror experience where you constantly battle waves of infected, you can expect a wide selection of firearms, melee tools, and razor-sharp implements designed for slicing through undead threats. We’ve compiled everything you need to know right here, beginning with weapons earned naturally throughout the campaign. After that, we’ll cover firearms available via supply boxes, as well as those unlocked through bonus content.

Note 1: During Leon’s campaign segments, you’ll encounter supply boxes that let him purchase gear and ammunition using credits. Weapons can also be upgraded to Level 2 through these boxes, enhancing attributes such as power, rate-of-fire, ammo capacity, and more. Once you’ve destroyed all 25 Mr. Raccoon collectibles, you’ll unlock the Advanced Tuning system, allowing upgrades up to Level 3.

Note 2: Because this guide discusses weapon locations, expect spoilers. Be sure to visit our Resident Evil Requiem guides hub on Gamer Choice for additional mechanics and gameplay tips.
