Grenade Launchers
When you need to clear a room, stun a powerful foe, or simply make a statement, the Grenade Launcher is your weapon of choice. While ammunition for this devastating weapon is incredibly scarce, its ability to inflict area-of-effect damage or specialized status effects makes it invaluable for specific encounters in Resident Evil Village.
There is only one Grenade Launcher available in the game: the GM 79. This powerful weapon can be found early on, but its true potential is unlocked through careful ammunition management and strategic deployment. Consider saving its precious rounds for boss fights or overwhelming enemy groups where its explosive power can truly shine. Don't waste its limited ammo on single, easily dispatched enemies.
The GM 79 can fire two types of ammunition: Explosive Rounds and Flashbangs. Explosive Rounds are your go-to for raw damage and clearing out clusters of Lycans or other common enemies. Flashbangs, on the other hand, are excellent for stunning larger, more aggressive foes, giving you a crucial window to reposition, reload, or unleash a barrage of other attacks. Mastering when to use each round type is key to maximizing the Grenade Launcher's effectiveness.
