Mortal Shell 2 Weapons: All 16 Weapons & Sidearms
Quick answer: the current collection checklist contains eight melee weapons and eight sidearms. Names, regions, and broad acquisition conditions are cross-checked community evidence; exact turn-by-turn routes remain pending site-owned capture.
What the official sources establish
The official game description confirms a system built around main weapons, sidearms, and extensive upgrades. It does not provide a public 16-item location checklist, so every row below remains labeled as a community lead until reproduced in game.
Before spending upgrade materials
- Collect the item and capture the pickup screen.
- Record the game build and the exact location label.
- Test the basic moveset before committing rare materials.
- Keep one familiar upgraded weapon as the comparison baseline.

Build a route, not a tier list
Start with the Prologue pair, finish the four Fainweald collection routes, then move into Mammon. For a controlled combat example, use the Proxima test loops; they deliberately avoid claiming that one weapon is best for every player.
Weapons FAQ
How many weapons are in Mortal Shell II?
The current launch checklist contains eight melee weapons and eight sidearms. This count is cross-checked community evidence, not a complete roster published by the official site.
Are any of these routes fully verified by this site?
Not yet. Broad regions and acquisition conditions are published as leads; room-level directions stay pending until a reproducible site-owned capture exists.
Which weapon should I upgrade first?
Upgrade the weapon whose timing you can already reproduce. Do not replace a familiar upgraded option solely because a launch-week tier list names another item.
