Silent Hill f will pit Hinako against nightmarish monsters from the darkest depths of her mind, manifested into the foggy town. While at the start, players have no choice but to run away from the approaching threats, they’ll eventually have to stick their ground and fight the monsters off with melee weapons. While the game does not feature any firearms like the western entries, there are still a variety of melee weapons that Hinako can arm herself with. Let’s check out all of them.
All Weapons & Their Location in Silent Hill f
There are 12 different weapons in Silent Hill f that Hinako can use to fend off against the monsters in Ebisugaoka and the Otherworld area of the Dark Shrine. These weapons are divided into two categories: Light and Heavy weapons.
All weapons have a durability stat and can be repaired via a toolkit. If the durability depletes, they break down and are gone forever. However, this mechanic does not apply to the weapons obtained in the Dark Shrine area.
Players can use both light attacks and heavy attacks against enemies, with the focus mechanic allowing Hinako to land charged attacks with the weapons. The focus mechanic also works a bit differently for the heavy weapons, as it’ll put Hinako in a defensive stance to block incoming attacks. This nuance in combat mechanics keeps fights from becoming repetitive, at least for a while.
So, let’s check out the list of weapons players can get in Silent Hill f.
