From the small pistol to the grenade launcher, Ethan will have the possibility to use a bunch of weapons to survive in Resident Evil Village. Here's a list of every weapon available in the game.
List of weapons and where to get them
Most of the weapons of the game are put on Ethan's path. However, you can miss the magnum and the grenade launcher.
LEMI
The first weapon in your possession when you arrive in the village.
M1897
In the second house in the eastern part of the village, during the survival sequence.
Sniper
When arriving on the roofs, after the puzzle with the five bells in the Atelier of Chateau Dimitrescu.
M1911
In the workshop locker when searching for the house with the red chimney.
M1870
In the lowest house in the Beneviento Garden, after completing the Beneviento House.
Magnum
To get it, you'll need the crank to open the iron gate at the east of the windmill in the reservoir area. Check out our guide to find Moreau's Hidden treasure for more details.
Grenade launcher
After Moreau, unlock the door to the eastern part of the village with the iron insigna key.

New Game + Weapons

Once the conditions are met, you still have to buy them for tens of thousands of completion points (to be accumulated through challenges).

Weapon upgrades
You will be able to improve the stats of your guns — except for the grenade launcher — with the Duke. It will cost you a lot of money to upgrade a weapon to the maximum.
There are several accessories for your weapon scattered throughout the game, so be sure to look for them.
The New Game Plus also unlocks access to unlimited ammunition, as long as you manage to meet the required conditions.
Resident Evil 8's Mercenaries Mode is additional content unrelated to the main story. In this guide, we explain how to unlock this arcade mode.
