Shadow holding a weapon, specifically a Pistol, from Shadow the Hedgehog.

The weapons in Shadow the Hedgehog vary from their respective, as they change as their ammo, color, damage and sometimes can be the same exact gun with a different internal structure.

Each weapon in Shadow the Hedgehog falls under one of seven weapon types; Close Combat, Gun, Cannon, Lock-on, Laser, Vacuum, and Special. Should the fallen weapon from an enemy not be picked up, it will disappear after a while.

List of weapons[]

Gun[]

Guns are the most common weapons in Shadow the Hedgehog. Guns fire small rounds and typically have a larger ammo capacity than other weapon types. Some guns are automatic, meaning that they can fire continuously if SNNBGAMECUBEDISCO/Square/XboxX is held down.

Special[]

There are a variety of unique weapons in Shadow the Hedgehog. Special weapons are unlocked by completing the final stages in story mode. Most of these weapons can be upgraded by completing the same stage again and fighting the other boss. Special weapons do not have a common attribute, and instead, each Special weapon takes on the attributes of one of the six other weapon types. Special weapons can only be found in special Shadow Containers scattered in each stage.
