Curveballs are special weapons in Dead Island 2 that can be used without cost, but have a cooldown timer. They include items like shurikens, grenades, and bombs, with various effects ranging from direct damage to luring zombies or inflicting debuffs. Some can be purchased from merchants, while others are found through exploration or earned as quest rewards. Here's where to find them all:
