Weapons and more specifically ammunition are scarce in Resident Evil 7. However, there will be times that you will need to rely on them to survive. Finding these weapons will be important to your success.

To help you find all the weapons, below we have listed every weapon along with their location.

Melee

Melee weapons require no ammunition or resources to use, making them great weapons to fall back on. It is recommended when using a melee weapon that you use guard (L1 on PS4) to stagger enemies as they attack before counter-attacking. Some attack types will penetrate the guard, so be cautious.
