#THE EVIL WITHIN 2 SHOTGUN FOR FREE#
Players who own the pre-ordered or special editions of the game are granted the Double Barrel Shotgun for free upon starting Chapter 3. Last but not least, the buckshots that it uses are quite rare in the first third of the game, and unless significantly upgraded, cannot be kept in large enough quantities to be wholly useful.ĭouble Barrel Shotgun " This type of side-by side, double-barrel shotgun is widely used for its light and sturdy construction." ―Inventory description. The Shotgun's small starting capacity is also something to frown at, which is not helped by how long the initial reload times are. Its stopping power also drops like a stone against distant targets as well, making it a strictly-close-ranged weapon. With that said, the Shotgun is not without drawbacks, as by its own nature it is horribly inaccurate at any range beyond point-blank, and reliably landing shots even at medium ranges can be a challenge as it lacks any sort of accuracy upgrade. Because of its high damage potential, the Shotgun is a great choice against bosses, provided there's enough ammo.

It is also blessed with great mobility due to its capacity for blind-firing while on the move.

The Shotgun packs a decent punch at close range, and is a quite useful crowd controller against mobs of The Haunted.
