Every Weapon Type In Freedom Wars Remastered

The game features six weapon types obtainable through mission completion or purchases from Zakka merchant stalls in The Warren. While you can't customize your Comrades' loadouts, you have full control over your Accessory's equipment. Weapon switches carry no penalties, allowing for frequent experimentation. The complete weapon roster includes:

Weapon Type	Traits
Light Melee	Rapid strikes ideal for agile combat styles Can sever Abductor limbs without requiring Flare Knives
Heavy Melee	Powerful sweeping attacks with wide reach Multiple Abductor limb hits count as repeated strikes Charged attacks propel you airborne Equipping slightly reduces mobility
Polearm	Combo moves maintain forward momentum Charged attacks unleash deadly ranged throws
Assault Weapons	High ammo capacity suits firearm-centric builds Usable while Thorn-grappled for tactical positioning
Portable Artillery	Devastating single-shot explosive rounds Area-of-effect damage hits multiple limbs simultaneously Weight decreases movement speed
Autocannons	High-volume suppressive fire capability Low per-bullet damage compensated by fire rate Movement speed penalty when equipped
