Evaluation of W-870

The essential shotgun for the early stages

Shotgun essential for early stages

The W-870 is available from the beginning and is an essential shotgun for the early stages of the game. Pick it up in Chapter 1, as it can be useful in situations where the handgun alone can't deal with the enemy. If you can't pick it up, you can always buy it from the Arms Dealer from Chapter 2 onwards.

Sell it after obtaining the Riot Gun

Sell it after obtaining the Riot Gun

You can sell the W-870 after obtaining the Riot Gun. The Riot Gun has a performance similar to that of the W-870 and has a longer range, so if you get the Riot Gun after Chapter 6, sell the W-870 to earn some money.
